Fitness update

Since I went on my change rampage last post I thought I would post an update.

This week i was successful in meeting my goals. Actually I did better than I thought I would have! I walked at least two mile everyday except Tuesday. And I did a jillian Michaels workout on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. during my walks I am usually burning about 400 calories, and then my workouts I burn almost 500. I also did pretty good at eating good and staying under my calorie limit (myfitnesspal) No change in weight yet, but i do feel better. Well not my muscles but my energy is up and i am proud of myself for the last week.

Next week I have the same goals, but to include Tuesday. I don't anticipate being as sore as I was this week.

Change

whew.... I went to bed feeling super motivated. In fact I couldn't fall asleep. I was thinking about change. you know that feeling after you have a baby, every day is the same. you feel like all you do during the day is take care of kids and clean and do laundry. Ya I am in that rut. So last night i started looking up cute short hair styles. I know that is so cliche... have a baby, chop your hair. Well I have always been this way. I grow out my hair and then chop it. I am starting to lose my hair now. Kasen is two months old and I am starting to gain weight. I need CHANGE. So I made a deal with myself. I need to lose about 50 pounds to be comfortable with myself, and 70 pounds to be at my final goal. I am going to just take each day one at a time.

My first reward will be at 20 pounds lost.... hair cut!! I haven't decided what the other goals will be. But I figured 20 pounds will mostly be my face fat... then a shorter hair cut will look better. I am so sick of my hair. All I do is put it up in a messy bun. I need something short and fun. So for now, that is what I look forward to :)

2 month check up

Today we had Kasen's 2 month checkup, more like 2 1/2 months. Here are his stats...

Weight: 13bls 10oz - 77%

Height:  23''  - 33%

Head circa:  15 3/4  - 36%

This is Kasen the day we took him home from the hospital...

This is him today. BIG BOY!  Doc says he is healthy, and there is nothing wrong with a double chin. lol

This is a picture from the last Doc visit, 2 Months ago!

I can't believe how much he has changed. He is getting so big So fast. He is starting to smile, and coo. He has been consistently sleeping at least 7 hours thru the night. Dream baby. We love him so much!
