Muffin Top Status

I'm lazy! There I said it! 
My entire life I have never enjoyed working out, it just never seemed to work into my daily plans. When I do workout, I'm "that" person who stops 10 minutes early because I can, only finishing if I have someone to push me forward, when in reality I just don't want to be the lazy one who stands out. 

I've finally hit a spot in my post-pregnancy life where reality has sunk in and opened my eyes to view my new "friend", her name, Mrs. Muffin Top. I guess I've never really considered the fact that I need to tone up, I just kept putting it on the back burner of my list of things to complete. I've been loosing weight like crazy with my dairy free diet, I can tell, I have another "friend", I like her A LOT better, her name, Mrs. Sexy Collar Bone. 

The other day my mom came over, she brought me over a present, I love her! A cute pair of wash shorts, just what I had been needing, I was in love! When I tried them on, my legs looked great, (they are usually getting strangled, pre-pregnancy and during pregnancy), I was so happy, that is until I saw Mrs. Muffin Top waiving hello. 

Long, sad, disappointing story cut short; I need to workout, tone up, and stop being lazy! Here is what I have come up with so far.

Healthy foods... check
Signs of weight loss...check
Exercise... NOPE! (WHY ME!)

You see, waist-up pictures are what I hide behind, this needs to stop!

There is a new me coming your way, a new healthier, toned, hot mama coming your way! "Sad" to say, Mrs. Muffin Top is getting the boot, I only have room for one BFF in my life!

Exercise, when is there time?


During the last month of my pregnancy all I could think about was how badly I wanted to work out. I could picture my thighs becoming slim again, my stomach back to its flat self, and my feet not swollen anymore! Now that my doctor gave me the all thumbs-up to work out, I've only found time to feel the burn twice! Between caring for Aleena, school work, being a housewife, and finding time to keep my daily appearance up, I don't know when to squeeze in a good 30 minute workout. Plus I have to keep in mind not to disturb Aleena's schedule too much. 
 Where is your little one when you work out?
 When do you find time to better your body?
 Is it easier to workout at home, or go out and make it a fun one!?
 Does anyone else have this problem!?
  Thanks for your input!
