I will be the first to admit I have completely slacked on working out ever since the summer. Don't get me wrong, I worked out, but not with the same passion and intensity as before giving birth to Madeleine. I truly thought that it would be easy because I was staying home with Madeleine. But, I quickly learned that babies are little "time suckers." They will monopolize every second of your life and not apologize. Don't get me wrong I love every minute of being part of her daily life I just have to learn to manage our time better.
So with that being said... I am going back to two-a-days. I started this morning with a 4 mile run on the beach. Then after lunch I hit the garage for some weights and calisthenics for 30 mins. I'm also doing 250 push ups a day. I usually don't do them all at once, just through out the day, here and there. I've already done 175....75 more!
Of course with working out more I need to eat cleaner and healthier. I absolutely love to make green smoothies for lunch. When we lived in Austin, I used to love to go JuiceLand daily! But, I can't find anything as good as it here so I make my own. I just blend up spinach, kale, pineapple or peach, flax seed and coconut water. But today I didn't have any pineapple so I used blueberries and strawberries. Of course this made my green smoothie brown but it still tasted great!
Even this picky eater loves green smoothies! Lately, she has been super picky about eating. She will only eat hummus, yogurt, oranges and blueberries. So this is mommy's sneaky way of getting her some healthy vegetables <insert evil laugh>.
Not gonna lie but I'm already feeling a little sore so I am going to go drink some water and strecth it out! Here's to hoping I can sit on the toilet without having to grip the walls!!! (I know, TMI!)
