So - it was only a matter of time before I posted about my post-pregnancy bod. Man - the whole bed rest/cesarean section thing has really put a crimp in my style. I have tried to start exercising only to have myself stopped due to some breakthrough bleeding. They told me the process to recovery would be long and drawn out due to the bed rest but you gotta be kidding me.
I have a closet full of clothes- actually a room full because a closet cannot house the amount of clothes/shoes I own. They are beautiful and fashionable and I can't wear any of them. I have had to buy a few pieces here and there (which is not in the new budget). The problem is that I'm in sizes that force me to wear "mom clothes". Yes, I am a mother, but no I'm not prepared for mom clothes - you all know what I mean. Those jean's your mom wears that have little or no pockets that make their rear ends look huge and have waists that travel up to your boobs. It is a tragic fashion phenomenon that I may have to conquer one day, but that is for another post.
I just started pilates, but in order to fit that into my busy schedule I must do it at 730AM on Saturday mornings. Gone are the days of sleeping in and relaxing, but then again so are the days of my insane metabolism.
I have several problems with a workout routine and most of it can be attributed to two friends that I have now made. Please let me introduce you to Mr. Lack of Time and Mrs. Extreme Exhaustion.
Moms can you please explain to me how you clean your house, cook meals, go grocery shopping, do laundry, take care of your children (that number includes your husband because let's face it they are helpless) and find time to tone your physique!?!
Looks like I'll have to pass on the cookies and try my luck at crunches. Hopefully that removes the "I'm 5 months preggo" look that I have going on right now :)
