…it’s the shape of the body on top. I’m referring to my scale. I’m being honest here…the number is fine. It’s not where it was 8.5 years ago but you can’t gain and lose 30+ pounds twice and 40+ pounds once and still have the same number as before you had any children. At least for me, that’s not a goal. Like I said, this is not about the number…
It is, however, about the shape. Once I lost the majority of the weight from my pregnancies, things didn’t seem to be in the same place as before…NO one told me about that when they were handing out tidbits of baby wisdom!! So, now I am left with wobbly bits (thank you for that fabulous phrase Bridget Jones!) in places where I’d rather not have anything wobble.
Time for a plan. Eat right, exercise. It’s sounds easy enough, doesn’t it? Once again, one side of my brain is in hysterics. I have three young daughters. I don’t have or want a nanny or maid. My days consist of refereeing arguing sisters, doing laundry, lifeguarding the girls at the pool, savoring nap time, doing laundry, supervising crafts, doing laundry, cleaning and coming up with something healthy and palatable for dinner.
I have read enough articles and seen enough reports on my favorite morning show to know what to do to get in the shape I want to be in. I don’t need a trainer or even a gym membership. It’s just a matter of doing it. Now that’s going to be the hard part…. 😉
