Check in

Today I weighed in at 156. I’m pleasantly surprised given that I’ve had a couple of glasses of wine throughout the week, BUT I did amp up my cardio AND I’ve been careful to monitor my meal portions. I even had fast food but kept it lite with a grilled chicken sandwich of which I didn’t eat the top bread. Also no fries and no coke!

This last week and a half I did longer and more intense cardio. I was consistent in weight training (lite weights) and I also Pilates. Pilates really surprised me. I tried Pilates once before and I thought it was too easy and I didn’t feel like it did anything for my body. I recently took 3 private Pilates classes and learned the technique and what it can do for my body. In just 3 sessions I’m more flexible, I feel longer and my post pregnancy abs feels stronger. I’m going to continue Pilates at home thanks to Exercise on Demand.

I’m 6 pounds away from reaching my short-term goal and my pre-pregnancy weight and then a shoppin' I go.
