A festive workout

I was laughing so hard when I saw this. I totally need to try it!

Happy Anniversary

So today is the 1-year anniversary of starting this blog. I had my 6-week post-baby checkup the Monday after Thanksgiving and got the ok to start exercising again. So I've been at this for a year now. I'll be honest....I'm not where I wanted to be when I started out a year ago. This blog hasn't exactly turned out to be what I envisioned it to be either.

BUT...in the past year, I have:

-lost about 30 pounds
-lost about 12 inches
-ran a half marathon
-finished a triathlon
-started heavy strength training (which I am loving, btw)
-been part of 3 health challenges, which have motivated me to do more and try new things
-started doing yoga (which I am also loving)
-finally got back to waking up early to exercise 5 days a week (I started with 1 day and worked up)

So, even though it hasn't been everything I had originally hoped for, I feel like I've made some good progress that fits into my life and that I can sustain. And I feel like that's what is important...finding things you can fit into your lifestyle and sustain.

So I'm gonna keep trying to add small healthy habits into my lifestyle a little at a time. And one day, I'll get there. Happy Anniversary! And, to make it even more exciting...this is my 100th post!
