A Healthy Postpartum

To begin the journey to greater health the first thing you need is imagination. You need to see beyond today to perceive that you can indeed say no to seconds, cheesecake and overcome other struggles. Right now all your clothes fit you, your comfortable. Buy a pair of jeans a size or two to small. I knew I could make it back from 180lbs to 155 because I had been 155 only a year earlier and had an entire wardrobe I wanted to fit again.

Since last January I've become considerably healthier, tracked by weight and messurment, I've lost 35lbs and a total of 12 inches which can be seen in greater d-tail in the messurments tab above. I love feeling healthy and every time I'm excercising I get to thinking, how can I help other people break ground in their own health transformation. The best way I could think of was sharing the day by day process that brought me to where I am now.

I hope you are inpired by my fitness story. As I record my P90X round 1 journey and other health endevours I have attempted, both the successes and the failures. I stared a round of insanity assylum, but realized in the first week it was above my current abilities. I'm going to be taking the P90X challenge for another spin.

as a note, I'm still updating my 2011 P90X round 1 story, I did record most days in the journey, it's just a matter of typing them out and posting them

Finally getting back on track

For a while we where so tight on funds that I couldn't afford all the healthy foods I would usually love to be able to buy like fruit and veggies, We where mostly living off the good mercy of parents, going over for meals etc.

Now today I've eaten very well and did an excercise routine to boot.

Excercise: Jillian Michaels - The Biggest winner kickboxing and tomorrow I hope to do another one in that same series.

Food:
Mixed Berry Smoothie
Sole and Veggie Rice
Vector cereal
Yogurt
Pear
Chicken, Crab and veggie stir fry on whole grain noodles
... ok, I had a mars bar =P

After the mars bar I really got track. My husband and I went out to my parents and I had six cookies, a bowl of ice cream, glass of wine and cup of coffee with flavoured creamer.
