Old lady

I'm an old lady, I don't know when it happen, but I'm old.

My hips hurt, my knees ache and something is pinching in my back. 

What do old ladies do to stay active? We walk. Today I loaded up the boys and hit the road. Thomas was all in running a head screaming 'fall-a me' and 'come get me'. I thought I'd see how far we could get before turning back.

We. Didn't. Turn. Back. 

Thomas walked the entire 3k to the park; running most of the wa,y while Zac and I tried to keep up in the stroller,

We played at the park for a bit and then headed for home taking Mum's 'shortcut', which involved crossing a highway, navigating a swamp and scaling (falling through) a ravine. It was beautiful chaos.

My hips and knees still ache, but I'm

going to sleep knowing I did everything today.

I lived a day with two kids, I didn't just get through it.

Tomorrow the gym. Weights and cardio.

Sod's law

Because everything that can go wrong, will. 

Fitness is on hiatus again. My strenuous workouts and required under garments damaged my milk duct, yes that's a thing... A complicated thing that causes a bleed and prevents baby from getting anything other than a mouthful of blood. 

So my little vampire and I have to rework our routine to fit everything in, 

I'm still going to go to the gym on Tuesday with hopes of doing some weight training and light cardio. I missed step this morning for reasons besides my health/milk production. 

I went re-wedding dress shopping! My best friend is celebrating 10 years of wedded bliss with a formal party. I am so excited! She said yes to a dress and made me want to reach my goal that much more! I have 6 weeks to lose 15lbs, to meet my first goal and spend a day at the salon #hotmessnomore

Wish me luck!

New gym

We're back at Goodlife. Finally.

But today Zac and I challenged a new gym in Grimsby... Only 7km away, versus our current gym (burlington), over 20km.

Burlington is a premium gym; hot yoga, massage chairs, TRX, premium equipment and constant upgrades... The best instructors, trainers and routines. It's huge. I love it. 

Grimsby is a basic gym, simpler and smaller, slower and more friendly. I felt more comfortable leaving Zac with the sweet older lady in a smaller room, than the decked out, premium room with dozens of kids running around. 

The class was good, the instructor was friendly and motivating. It was a power packed 30 minutes, which helped with my anxiety of leaving Zac alone in a new environment. 

I feel good. 

I hit my 3 times this week! Yay! I'm optimistic about one more class on Saturday. Hopefully for a hot yoga, to stretch out this old body. 

I'm going to weigh and measure tomorrow.

Wish me luck!!
