    Trinity, Jessica is correct. I love her advice to change the things you can, one at a time. You are a young mom who is breast feeding and trying to figure out your body's changes and how to adjust. You go this.

    Jessica, sometimes your body knows what you need so much more than your mind. Glad you listened to your body and got some rest. Rest is one of the major things people forget about when training for any kind of race or just training to get back into shape. It is just as important as the workouts.

    Keep up the good work ladies. I find myself re-reading your posts when I am down or just wondering why my hand is in the cookie dough that I really didn't want. And you ladies life my spirits and help me get back on track. Thank you, ladies.

    Since I'm out of town this weekend, I moved Day 15 LBD to today and combined it with today's FW.

    35 lunges with triceps, squats with shoulders and bridges x 3

    Can I say, these workouts are actually my favorites of the LBD. Adding in the free weight training helps get everything done faster, plus speed up metabolism more.

    4/3: Used day 1 from both LBD & FW as my warm up for my run. Restarted C210K today, feeling really good.

    4/5: Rest day
    4/6: Split days 5&6 of LWD and days 4&6 of FW in half and did two sets.
    4/7: 1 set of day 7 of LWD & FW this morning
    4/11: Skipped Monday, so this AM I split day 9LWD & 8FW into 2 sets. This afternoon I'll do days 10&11 LWD and 9&11 FW split into 2 sets.
    4/13: Won't be working out tomorrow, my husband has a surprise planned, so I mushed together days 13-15LWD AND 12,14&15FW. Split them into 3 sets for my evening workout.
