So true - that kid will eat anything. But we are luck yso far - if she is chewing on something and we aren't sure what it is, if we say "give it to me" and hold out a hand palm up, she will take it out and put it in our hand.
Stay plugging along. Did just cardio this morning, will do cardio/weights tomorrow. I tried a new cardio machine at the gym - the LF Climber thing. It sucked ass. It was hard, but I hated that it was so BIG. The fixed "horn" handles were too far away, and the moving handlebars were too far. The steps were too big/long - felt awkward. But it was challenging - my heartrate was UP FAST. I did it for 10 min, then the LF elliptical. Might be a machine I add in here and there, for variety, but it certainly feels like a machine that could cause some kind of imbalance (from not "fitting right") if I used it regularly.
Good news ..... I am 2 lbs away from my pre-pregnancy weight.
That means I have lost 19 lbs so far. PLUS, I am still rep-menstrual and retaining water - never thought I would be ahppy about this, hahahaha.
Of course, I started my pregnancy about 20 lbs heavier than I would have liked, so I still have 20 lbs to go. But hey, halfway there - can't beat that with a stick!

Still plugging along. Been very consistent about going to the gym for cardio in the AM, not as good with weights. Been lifting about 2x a week (total body, concentrating on compound movements, no isolation work) but was hoping for more - wanted 3x a week. Lifted this morning, and could SEE muscles in my arms/delts. Pretty amazing for 99% BF.
I stopped weighing myself, since scale was not really moving - depressing. I pretty much binged on all things sugar-related during my period. I never had sugar-cravings during my period until I went off the pill. Weird. When I was on BCP, it seems it also curbed my cravings. Now - watch out.
Need to work on that!
But people are making comments everyday about me losing weight, and 99.9% of the things in my closet (for work) fit. Now, I have to work on my "fun clothes" fitting .....
I will be out of town until the 29th - going to NC to see the family. I will likely check in here and there, but nothing consistent I am thinking. My parents live near a bunch of walking trails, so I will keep up the cardio with walking/jogging when there. My parents love going for walks - so I knwo we will do it. Plus, pushing the stroller is tough too!
Wish me luck on the 4 hour plane ride with a 14 month old drama queen ......
