going to bootcamp
Okay, Angie & Jill - I’m getting ready to join you for bootcamp. I’ve ordered the P90X workout & pull-up bar. (Hey, with 3 sons, I’m sure one of them will want to use it down the road, too. Or I could use it as punishment, ha ha. You talkin’ back to me, son? That’ll be 20 pull ups. Now!) The workout was cheaper than buying a new wardrobe, which is what I’d have to do if I don’t lose the rest of my pregnancy weight.
My goal is to make getting into shape a prime priority for the next 3 months, run a 10K on July4th, and then re-evaluate my wardrobe. Hopefully I’ll be able to pack away all of my maternity & post-partem fatpants back into storage until I’ve got a real excuse to be wearing them again!
I like the idea of a 3-month plan. It’s long enough to allow significant change in my body, but short enough to be manageable. I like the idea of having 12 different work-outs to do every 2 weeks, so I don’t get bored. I like that I can do the workouts in my home, with the boys watching or participating - I won’t have to rely on hubby to watch them everytime I want to work out.
Adding workouts to my daily schedule means that something else will have to give. Probably blogging will be the first thing to sacrifice, although I might commit to a weekly update on my progress. Pleasure reading will be out for now, along with learning Latin. But it’s just for 3 months. Thanks for your support, and feel free to give me a bad time if I get lazy. Feel free also to join me!! I’ve already asked big bro. to join me on the 10K. Any other takers?
