I am really disgusted with myself

I am completely out of shape.

I lost all my baby weight--unfortunately I gained 15-20lbs prior to getting pregnant.

I bought the 30 Day Shred yesterday.  I almost died on level 1.  I did it again today and it was much better today.

I used to work out 2x a day.

What happened to me?  I am so sad.  I need to get myself back in gear an get off this weight...

Re: I am really disgusted with myself

  • Robert is not even a year old - do you know how many people say " oh its just baby weight " like 5 years later ? 

    I know its tough, but don't beat yourself up. 

  • Um... how could you lose all the baby weight in less than 4 months?! I still had some Nate weight when I got pregnant again after 11 months. Being pregnant again so soon, I think I'll be one of those perpetual "my extra weight is just baby weight" women. But, I am a lot stronger now than I've ever been. Having a baby is a great way to build upper body strength. They grow gradually enough that your muscles can grow with them. :)

  • Girl, you have a 3 month old. When in heck would you have time to work out twice a day now? I've heard the 30 day shred is awesome, but it definitely kicks your butt. So it sounds like you're already doing good if it was easier on the second day. You'll get there! It's just getting back into the habit!

  • Hang in there!! 

    Three months is not a lot of time to have a little extra baby weight, don't worry once he's mobile you'll have all the cardio you need running around after him.

  • You are doing much better than me!  I need to start exercising again, but haven't got back in a routine yet.  I still have a few lbs to lose.

  • Hang in there, Alyssa and give yourself a break.

    ...signed someone who will likely write this exact post 4 months from today.

  • So, JJ is 2 1/2, and I'm still a few pounds shy of my pre-pregnancy weight. But, I'm also lazy and get in my "exercise" by chasing him around. :P

    I started 30 Day Shred again, and it definitely is a workout - but worth it. Don't beat yourself up too much...you'll get back to where you want to be in no time.

  • I am 2 lbs lighter than my pre-preg weight (thanks to Margots food allergies), however things definitely redistributed and I have way to much extra around my midsection. I should probably do something about that soon.... sigh. Anyhow, good for you for finding the time and taking on the workouts! I need to look to you for some inspiration!

  • Thanks everyone! I will get there eventually-I'm 3 for 3 with my workout so far!
