edited November 2024 in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone! I had a baby back in January, and I have been working out since April to get back into shape. I decided to finally introduce myself here.
I have lost about 10lb since I started. To get back to where I was pre-baby is about 10lb more, but my long term goal is to lose about 25lb more total. I have a whole closet full of clothes that I can't fit into, so that's currently pretty motivational for me.

I love sharing healthy recipes and staying motivated. I love working out but the hardest part for me is the nutrition (I LOVE dessert :smile: ).

My current workout routine is to do 3 days of cardio, and 3 days of lifting. I mix yoga in there sporadically too.

I also like keeping an eye on my fitbit, if nothing else but to remind me to move around.

Nice to meet you all!

    I'm a new mom too! February baby :) I've lost a little over half the baby weight but in addition to what's left I'm hoping to lose another 15-20. Good luck to you!
