A few weeks ago, my husband bought us a treadmill. BEST ❤ HUBBY ❤ EVER & not just because he buys great things… he truly is the best. I absolutely LOVE that i can workout now! I haven’t been able to in so long because when I try, the babies get mad or try to climb all over me while on the floor trying to focus on a workout video.. haha… which obviously makes me quit working out and just play with them. The treadmill is in the room next to our living room, so while they eat lunch or even just play and watch cartoons… this mommy can WORK OUT! It feels so nice. I used to work out daily before I had babies & after our first, I got down to the last 10 lbs and found out we were pregnant again… I was paranoid and didn’t do anything fitness related while pregnant except walking once in a while. I had a lot of pain during my second pregnancy so it seemed like every little thing I did, took everything out of me.
So far, I have been able to start eating better again also.. I am restricting my calories some but mainly cutting out a lot of the carbohydrates I was eating and replacing them with fruits & veggies. For my work outs, I do some pilates & then walk with a high incline on the treadmill for 30 minutes a day. It isn’t much, but it is something…. and everyone starts somewhere. If you are interested in following my fitness or simply discussing anything fitness related, please feel free to add my Instagram: @JeniP_Fitspiration. I’d love to have some fellow fitness buddy on there! We can inspire each other to keep moving on those rough couch potato days haha..
In addition to working out and eating better… I have managed to cut coffee completely out of my life except for maybe Starbucks once a month. I love it, so I need it sometimes… AND i get decaf now.. which is just nuts. If you know me, you know I was a coffee addict. I needed atLEAST a half of a pot a day to function. Now that I am no longer drinking it though, its strange to say but i actually feel MORE alert and energized most days except for the usual “mommy didn’t sleep last night” days. We all have those though!
Well, I am off for the day. I have lots of new things happening with my businesses so I will be updating soon on those. I hope you enjoyed reading. Thanks for stopping by!
