monday weigh in…on a tuesday.

First off…californians…can i get an amen for this supreme fall weather we’ve been having. I know, I know…low 70s isn’t a “fall” but for us flip flop wearers…its nice to dust off the ol boots and break out the comfy sweaters.

All last week I was a walking machine.  A few days in a row I did a nice little 3 mile jaunt around some super cute homes in my neighborhood.  Lots of daydreaming about being a home owner…and interior decorating ideas were made.

I’m cleared to run now which is super exciting, but theres a little bit of fear goin on there.  I used to be a runner.  Even when i hadn’t ran in years i could bust out 3 miles like it was no biggy.  Yeah thered be your usual huffing and puffing…but i could do it.  Im so out of shape…im kind of ashamed to get it started.  Thus the intense walking all last week.

Out of shape or not it was really nice to be outside and getting back into gear.

During one of my walks as i was coming up a hill i saw a fellow stroller pusher.  We got closer and closer and gave each other the quick glance i seem to get from all baby toting mamas these days…the quick look of “oh gurl…i know” .  This fellow mom was fit as hell though…she had clearly just got done running and was in super great shape.  I told brett that as i passed her huffing up the hill at a brisk walk I thought to myself “im coming for you blondie!”  In no time we will be jogging past each other and it will be glorious.

Food wise last week…i started out super intense “I WIll EAT NO BREAD EVER!!”…quickly this attitude changed to…”i will eat less bread than i usually do”  and that has worked out reall well.  Its amazing how less crappy  feel after eating an in n out burger wrapped in lettuce.  whodathunk.

Anywho…lets check the stats shall we.

Weigh In:  165.4

Pounds Lost: 2

Pounds to go till pre-baby weight:  25

Pounds to ultimate goal:  45

Its nice to see progress on the scale, but even that feels like its not super accurate…things are already fitting looser and looser.  inches before pounds my mama always said : ).

Heres to this week of fitness!
