1/6 the way through the program and am feeling good.
Watching what I am eating carefully as I need to ensure I get all my grams in to maintain my milk supply. I am eating for two after all. I have started feeding Max real food naturally so his dependance on breast milk has decreased but he still needs feeding 4-5 times a day. I am still hungry a lot but that is just a breastfeeding symptom and mostly phantom so I am not giving into this.
Max started daycare this morning so workout wasn't until after we got home at lunchtime. He was totally zonked and I managed to get all the entire workout during his nap. Awesome. He is still napping now. The schedule will be off for a while until we settle into the new routine. I may have to get up earlier to get the workouts done while he is still sleeping - crikey!!
Skipping was a bit woeful today though as I kept tripping after 20 skips or so. My longest "run" was around 90. I did about 50 extra to make up for the flubs.
The rest of the exercises are improving. Really watching my form and the first set of each type are pretty good. Even the incline press was looking like the pictures. Feeling a good burn. The encouragement and instructions from our "oh-so-wise-guru" Patrick have really helped keep the form in the front of my brain while I am doing the exercises rather than just trying to get through them.
Am deliberately not weighing myself daily as I think week to week is a better indication of progress as this will even out any daily fluctuations.
You're doing this breastfeeding? I take my hat off to you my dear! Thats awesome! Did Max enjoy daycare? Did you? :)
ReplyDeleteRe- weighing yourself, I could see a noticeable difference in your week 1 and week 2 photos! Great stuff!
Way to go Tracey!!!! I too take about 20 hats off to you for breastfeeding and doing this. You must be zonked at the end of the day. In terms of the weighing yourself, also remember that if you are building muscle, it weighs more than fat, so absolute kg mean less than how you look and your photos are proof of that.
ReplyDeleteGood on you Tracey!! Very admirable that you're still breastfeeding. Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteHow did lil Max enjoy daycare?
