FINALLY!!!!

12 Weeks Postpartum, and for the first time in a MONTH, I saw the scale go down.

What did I change? I stopped sleeping in with Anndi. And that's it.

Weight Loss this Week: 2 lbs.

Weight above Prepreg. Weight: 15.5 lbs.

Workouts:

2000 yard swim

3 mile run

4 mile run, weights, and abs

1 hour kickboxing class

3 mile run & abs

1 hour kickboxing class & 30 min BOSU class

11 Weeks Postpartum

Weight Loss: 0 lbs.

Weight: 17.5 lbs. above prepreg. weight

Workouts:

At least 3 runs per week

At least 1 kickboxing class

At least 1 day cross-training, either swim or spin.

The scale will NOT budge. I am so discouraged. Pissed off, even. Last time at this exact point I was WAY ahead of where I am now, and continually seeing results. It's been 3 weeks since I saw the scale go down, and I have worked my BUTT off since then, and eaten very healthy. I mean really really healthy.

I need to change a few things. First of all, this time I have a baby who sleeps late in the morning. 90% of the time I have been able to sleep in with her, while Blake watches Caleb for me. I have slept as late as 11 am a LOT. I think that is not helping my weight loss.

Also, I need to lift weights more, and do more abs work. I have been doing a lot of cardio and not much strength training.

Finally, I just need to eat normal for me. I am wondering if that will help. I have been eating small breakfast and large lunch and dinner, with minimal to no snacking. I am going to eat 2 snacks a day, and a large breakfast with smaller lunch and dinner. That's my natural inclination.

Please, if you have any suggestions, let me know!
