My stuggles with weight loss after the birth of my son

Waiting for my son to nap...

So I can do Zumba Day 5! I know, that was supposed to be yesterday but I did a P90X workout with Matt instead.

Not nearly the calorie burn I would've got dancing, but my arms and shoulders got a great workout!

I've still resigned myself to not skipping a day of this Zumba program so I am doing day 5 today. I haven't weighed myself today, but I weighed myself yesterday and I had gained back .4 pounds. That still puts me at 178 and my BMI is exactly 27 (my healthy weight, 145, puts me at 22.5 BMI-wise). That's still overweight. My mini-goal is to be at 165, which puts my BMI in the "healthy" range of below 25.

Well. Doesn't look like little man is headed for a nap. I'll have to dance around him.. he sometimes joins with me, shaking his arms and spinning in circles, but most of the time he ignores me and plays with toys or winds around my feet and becomes a major tripping hazard. haha

So. I'm off to my sweat session be back in an hour or so!

Back! I love dancing so much! Even with sore arms I was able to rock out in front of my TV - even my son cooperated and let me burn those calories!

I'm hungry now... really should have had a quick snack before dancing but decided to just pop in the DVD and go.

Hopefully the scale shows me a number to be proud of tomorrow - I know the scale will tend to go wonky when you start an exercise program but I'd like it to keep trending downward the way it has been this week :D

More tomorrow.
