As much as I’ve wanted to start a routine this year, I haven’t done it yet. There are a few reasons, none of them good. I’ve been concentrating a lot on my eating habits. That’s right, I’ve actually lost weight just from changing my eating. I’ve dropped 15.2 pounds since the beginning of the year.

I’m trying to get a routine for my life, not just routine for fitness. I’m trying to take it one step at a time. I’m working on carving out a workout time, which if all goes right, will be my daughter’s nap time. If she’s awake, I can’t a workout in, because when I start moving, she’s around my feet the whole time. Even when we go walking outside, she now wants to walk with me – literally walk with me. Walking with a one-year old isn’t quite exercise.

The other option is getting up early before she gets up. But that will only work if I can get her to sleep through the night or nearly sleep through the night. Last weekend, I weaned her. But that doesn’t stop her from waking up in the night. I would prefer to knock it out before my day started.

Anywho, I’m going to be doing TurboFire when the stars align. More info —–>

I started the program late last year and enjoyed it. I like it because there’s a set program and if you follow the program, you will see some real results. It’s not that I don’t like the gym, but I don’t go to the classes, I don’t like the crowds. It might be the embarrassment from my weight loss, but I’m just comfortable with no one watching with the excess weight. I used to be hot, ya know?

The plan:

Monday:  Stretch 10 Class, Fire Starter Class, Stretch 10 Class – Completed

Tuesday:  Low HIIT 20 Class, Stretch 10 Class

 Wednesday:  Rest Day

Thursday:  Fire Starter Class, Stretch 10 Class

Friday:  Fire 40 Class, Stretch 10 Class

 Saturday:  Fire Starter Class, Stretch 10 Class

 Sunday:  Core 20 Class,  Stretch 40 Class

 Of course, this doesn’t include the dance parties with my daughter. We break out into dance anytime any music came on. It’s been a blast. The weather’s been too icky to take her to the park, so we probably won’t get that in this week either. Until next time,
