Getting back into the groove

I thought once I had the baby I would jump right back into it. I knew it would be hard and I would not be back over night, but I thought the motivation would be there. And it has not!!
I want to be back where I was, but really do not want to do the work!! I decided baby steps!!

This week I have set a goal to get out of bed and workout 3 times a week. Which I really must say is hard, Dallin is only a month so he is not sleeping through the night and when he wakes up he is up for a few hours. I thought about this and even before I had Dallin waking up to workout was hard. But worth it, plus living in Vegas you have to get out early to beat the sun. But Gary has to be at work. So I had that excuse. But it's summer!!! Which means no more excuses! I have gotten up at 5am(hit the alarm clock a few times!) , pumped, and headed out! So far so good!! If anyone wants to join me text me and I will tell you when and where!! The first day I was on my own it went well walked a few laps and felt pretty good. Day 2 met up with Monica and Tamra we did station and walked(I walked they ran), I tried running I could feel it in my stomach. In two weeks I get released and will not stress has much. But since I can not do abdominal exercises at all the station I did legs, OH MAN did my legs hurt that day and the next!! It helps to go with people, I know they are waiting for me. Again if anyone wants to join us let me know!! Like I always say so worth it. Sleep is nice, but I am just has tired has I was before but I feel good.

Every week I am going to a set a new goal, until I get back where I was. I can't do it all at once but I will get there!! I will be honest next week I am going to workout, but my Mom will be in town and so I am not setting a new goal. My next goal is not eating after 7pm and I know with family in town there is no way I am doing that!! So the following week I will add that.

After this week I am getting nervous about 13.1 miles!!
