Now I realize that I just had a baby 3 weeks ago, but I am beyond ready to get my body back. I was in the process of loosing weight when I got pregnant last May. I had completed 2 weeks of Weight Watchers and I was working out several times a week. I have already lost 25 pounds of the 35 gained while pregnant....which means that I am only 10 pounds away from the pre-baby weight. I still would like to loose about 20 pounds on top of that.
I just found this idea on another blog, The Blessed Life. I love how she has broken down her goals into weeks. One fitness goal a week. I am going to start at "Week One" and go from there.
Weekly Goals (to be accomplished each day of the week):
Week 1- Track Calories
Week 2- Move every day
Week 3- Water each morning instead of juice
Week 4- No french fries
Week 5- Drink only water throughout the day after breakfast
Week 6- No snacking after 8 pm
Week 7- No sweets
Week 8- Do three sets of planks for 60 seconds each
Week 9- No starches (white potatoes, white breads, etc.)
Week 10- Only snack on heathy foods
Week 11- 20 push-ups each day
Week 12- Eat a salad each day (no creamy dressing)
Week 13- Eat a whole grain each day
Week 14- Take a walk each day
Week 15- Cook only "light or healthy" meals
Week 16- 50 jumping jacks each day
Week 17- Eat 3-5 servings of baked, steamed, or raw veggies
Week 18- Eat 2-4 servings of fruit
Week 19- Do 3 sets of stairs each day
I changed a few of the goals to suit my needs.
So today starts Week 1. My goal this week is counting calories. Come back on Friday to see how I did this week.

Good luck!! I know you can do it! Just remember it takes 14 days for something to become a habit, so don't give up after a week!! I work out constantly and my work out buddy is a fitness girl. She competes in fitness and body shows & I had to tweak my work out to fit me because I don't need to lift weights every day to meet my goals like she does.
