I have been mentally fighting with myself for exactly 22 months about my body post baby (My sweet boy is 22 months today). I have dieted and tried to dedicate to a regular regime of running or walking and nothing has stuck.. mostly because I have had zero motivation due to my schedule (full time working mom) and my partners fluctuating schedule. He has a rotating schedule so I can't plan to do much sans child on a regular basis, like a gym or workout routine. My dear friend Kristi told me about this 21 day fix by Beach Body and I immediately did the mental check list of weather it would work for me or not...
- Can I do the food part? Yes.
I eat pretty healthy anyway because I have been tracking my habits via myfitnesspal app since before I was pregnant. I wasn't worried about my commitment to that part. check.
- Next question, Can I dedicate myself to doing the work outs? Sure....
Well, if they don't take to long, I will have something showing me how (there is DVD's I hear!), and I can accomplish them when my little spawn is in bed. Sure! check.
- Can I afford this? Parenting budget and all (hey diapers are spency). Yes!
Its a first payment of $19.95 + shipping and then 2 payments of $19.95. there is a full 30 day money back guarantee... this is a 21 day program... soooo I don't see a problem if I end up hating it. check.
- Final question I asked myself to be sure I could handle this? Can I dedicate myself to this for 21 full days? .....
and my response was... well, if you don't you sure are wasting like 120 diapers. To a budgeting mommy like myself, that was certainly motivation.
My package is to arrive on Tuesday, April 29 and I plan to begin the following day.
I will post daily updates on how I'm feeling about my progress... I will take before and after pics and this blog will hopefully inspire other mom's out there who have no time or motivation to believe they to can do something about the post baby bump.
To aid in my progress I plan to continue using myfitnesspal and waterlogged apps for assistance in tracking food and water intake. (they have alarms on them to remind you to log if you are forgetful or busy, too)
wish me luck!
