Something Has to Give

I have decided to this and do it right.  Being a member of the YMCA is a benefit.  Now the only thing to do is use my membership.  With that being said, go to the Y at least 2 times a week.  The classes are awesome and I am really looking forward to going.  It's a matter of taking the time out to do that.  It's a plus because they offer day care within my fee.  This gives him an opportunity to interact with other kids and learn some skills all at the same time.

Being 9 months postpartum has been something different.  The body changes, emotions all over the place, getting used to being a mother, have taken a toll on this 39 year old body.  Plus, I started taking iron pills and I feel completely different.  On top of taking my thyroid medicine.  I got this under control.

Having a new lease on life is something completely different.  What I need to do is this.  Take my thyroid medicine and iron pills daily.  Once my iron pills run out, go to the doctor and get a prescription.  I think I need that in my life.  Do a variety of classes at the Y, go swimming when the weather permits and get my life back.  Just because I'm an older mom, cancer survivor, and 9 months postpartum doesn't mean that my life has to change.  All that needs to be done is get my life in order and focus on what's important and that is my health and my babies.  I have to be healthy to make sure I take care of him and give him all that he needs.

Yoga, 30/30, rpm, swimming, walking, stairs, this will be my exercises.  Plus, add more iron into my diet.  This will make it better.  Now, I don't need to focus on the weight loss, but a healthy lifestyle.  Overall, getting under 200lbs is important, I know it will take time, but I am focused to make it work.
