First Work Out

I did it! The first of many. I didn't do it all perfect but I gave it my all and I'm pretty proud of myself. Again this is the workout I'm doing this month: http://www.self.com/fitness/workouts/2012/11/the-no-equipment-workout-slideshow?mbid=enws_mow1018#slide=1 and you can follow my year plan here: http://pinterest.com/allywolps/a-year-of-workouts/

Trust me they look easier than they are. Some of them I didn't to the full reps or time but I'm hoping to improve and keep you posted! Thanks for giving me support and making me get off my ass!

A Year of Workouts

      Today is the first day of the rest of my life. And I must say, I want the rest of my life to be a little bit skinnier. Recently I have discovered I've been lying to myself for years. My life style is not all that healthy, I've never been an active person, and it needs to stop.
   
     This spring/summer is the time that I wanna look back and see that I changed my life and the life of my kids. I'm a fat kid of fat parents and I want to stop the cycle. So for Gibson(and for myself) I have devised a work out plan that I hope will help.

    In the past the problem with working out for me is how bored I get! Every day doing the same old thing. Over and over and over and all I can think is am I really going to do THIS for the rest of my life? Hell no. So I'm going to try a new work out every month. Most of the workout plans you see out there are made for one month periods anyway so this seems like the easier path.

   With my discover of Pinterest last year my guilt of not working out increased. You see all the pins of "The easiest work out ever!" or what have you and all couldn't help but think, "Why cant I do that". So I'm creating a new Board to Pin all the my workouts and what month they will be for. You can follow me and do the same work outs here: http://pinterest.com/allywolps/a-year-of-workouts/

  You might ask yourself why I would put this out in public, for people to see my failures(cause I'm sure there will be some). Because, I say, people will also see my successes. Also it will hold me accountable for doing these and letting you know what I think.

  So wish my luck! Ill need it:/

New woman

 Life changes when you become a mother. No matter how many times you tell yourself you wont let it, it will. Instead of fighting it tooth and nail, you should imbrasse it. Of course this is earier said then done.
I originally started this blog to keep in touch with myself before becoming a mother. Now I realized the person I've become is way more interesting than that person.
While she did have some great qualities that I have tried to hold onto, this new woman is more intuitive, loving,  and selfless.

Day of Posts

Alright so now that I have more time on my hands for this I'm going to start blogging at lest once a week if not more. Mondays will be my "DAY of POSTS". (btw my dog is farting like crazy next to me)
So lets get these post started by checking you up on my life!
I had a baby on April 8th after 40! hours of labor. (mostly natural) A baby boy named Gibson:) He is almost 4 months now which is crazy to me and he just gets cuter by the day. In the beginning my whole day consisted of taking care of him and with two weeks of bed rest made it difficult to do much else. But now I'm getting into a new routine of working out, blogging, and doing my art. (I have finish only one painting since he's been born)  My days have been consumed of breastfeeding, changing diapers, and trying to clean...

See you next week!


Maybe it should be once a month...lol

New Business

I have been mulling around the idea of starting a business. I enjoying refinishing furniture and thought I could maybe sell some pieces! I'm starting off slow with just a couple pieces but Im hoping that I can finish 10 pieces by the end of the summer and start a website!  Right now Im working on a 1950's side table. I love it so much I might keep it. (Which I think will be a problem with all the furniture I find).  I'll keep everyone updated on how its going.

Stress

Stress is a bitch. It's something that everyone has no matter how easy your life is. So when you're pregnant (which is a stress in itself) and stressed about EVERYTHING else all I can think is "How bad is this for the baby?"
Well the scary truth is, really bad. I've been reading more about stress since I started having issues with it about 3 months ago and the more I learn the more I realize I could be doing some serious damage to my little Belly Bean. Studies show that the more stress the mother has the higher chances of health problems for the baby and even shows signs of high blood pressure later in life.
This is an interesting article:

So how to manage this stress. Well, I have no idea! I have a Midwife appointment this Wednesday and I'm hoping she can help me out. I'm sure I'll be writing about it in a later post cause one thing I found has help is writing it down:)
