I feel like I have gotten a very good start so far. This is just a quick update showing the itty bitty bit of progress I have made in the last 4 weeks. I am only a fraction of the way into this journey and have a long way to go, but it helps to acknowledge that all my hard work has actually done something.
So keep in mind, the progress is not super obvious but this is almost 10 pounds down.
Things are moving along great, although I have started to worry that I might actually be taking in too few calories in order to keep my milk supply up.
I got a new fitness tracker which has been really motivating the last few days, and I have to give a shout out to my friend Nicole who has been an amazing accountability partner. We have both committed to doing a workout challenge for all of September and having someone to talk to about the ups and downs has been a huge factor in my success so far.
Probably my biggest achievement in the last 4 weeks was working up to a 3 mile run! Right before I got pregnant with Judah I was running consistently and I would typically run around 3 or 4 miles so it felt amazing to be able to do that again. I feel very strong and very capable of achieving the goals I have set.
Speaking of goals, I have decided on the date I want to set as a goal to lose the weight by, and that is Christmas. I would like to be at least 140 by Christmas, if not to my pre-pregnancy weight of 136 but that might be pushing it. I guess we will see! Thanks for following me on this journey!
