First Weigh-in

So this morning I totally forgot to get on the scales before I consumed my bowl of ceral and 2 cups of coffee. Luckily I got on the scales yesterday morning before eating or drinking anything. So my first weigh-in weight is 147. Which is actually a lot less then I was 2 weeks ago…almost 10 pounds less. I think the physical stress of pre-deployment /deployment has equaled in the unexpected weight loss. Since 3 weeks postpartum, I’ve been sitting in the 150’s. I would go from 156 to 150 back to 154…so I was surprised to see that I had actually gotten under 150. Thought I’m closer to my goal weight, my body is forever changed from having 2 children in less then 2 years…and for carrying a 9 pounder.

So this week my goal is to get some exercise. I have to admit, I already failed my first goal which was to put together a fitness routine this past week. I’m going to give myself a little bit of a break since we’re still adjusting to the physical demands of deployment. Boy howdy am I exhausted!

So today my goal is to do some isometrics and strength training. I’m SO out of shape…in fact, I don’t remember the last time I exercised…it’s been a very long time. I will take my first “before” pictures today and post those along with an update on how my first exercise session went.

Alright, Luke is running around and Will just woke up from his morning nap – I gotta run!

Later!
