Day 11

I woke up early to feed the baby, shortly after Spencer got up to get ready for work and when I finally finished feeding her she fell back asleep. The boys were still in bed and so I took the opportunity to do my workout in a quiet house with no little people under me threatening to get smacked and kicked by my crazy moves. I think I'd like to adapt my schedule to be this way more often. It's totally less stressful and I don't have to stop as often to get things out of the way. I did my 20 mins uninterrupted and then woke them up and can move on with my day. Next step will be to get them all breakfast and then go hop in the shower while the baby is still asleep. I feel nasty and sticky sweaty but it feels good to have it out of the way. The planks in this workout 2 are just killing me but I muscle through them and it feels good to be working my shoulders, arms and everything else for that matter all at once. I'd like to be able to get strong enough shoulders to do an actual push up and so the push up challenge like a  friend of mine did. Kind of hard to imagine being able to do one let alone 100 but if she can do it so can I. If anyone reading this is trying to lose weight like me, I hope your workouts are going well and you're seeing as good of results as I am. I am trying not to get discouraged and keep on working out but it's hard! My internal self doubter and negative body image creeps up every once in a while (I like to call her Negator) and it makes it even harder to want to do it but I keep trying to imagine my body changing and my ideal weight and shape in my mind so that I don't let it stop me. Here's hoping I can make it through the next 19 days!
