Just The Thing

One of my goals after popping this kid out, is to get back into a shape that does not resemble a watermelon or bloated jellybean. I have been pondering how best to go about this since we let our gym membership lapse during my short bout of bed/pelvic rest early into this pregnancy.

My neighborhood isn’t exactly pedestrian friendly, making walking (my favorite way to drop the pounds) a dangerous prospect. Only the main road of the neighborhood has sidewalks and most people blow through here like it’s a freeway on-ramp. If you want to try to cross the street, you need a rocket booster or police escort to avoid getting mowed down.

The nearby park, which has plenty of walking space also harbors unemployed men on stolen bikes hugging 6 packs between their knees from the hours of 5 am till 9 pm, another unsavory choice.

I do have some videos which I used after Tessa was born but they are all so hard to follow. How do I know if I am getting the poses and positions right?. I had all but given up on the idea of videos when my friend found THIS . Problem solved. Now I just need The Hubster to install the blinds and curtain rods.

    AND it’s on sale! What’s stopping you? Order two. One for a friend.

    LMAO! I thought for sure I was going to click the link for one of those videos that teach you to strip, but no…this is even better.

    And, have you ever tried Slim in Six? I loved that, but somehow one of my kids ate the DVD and I just can’t bring myself to spend another 50 bucks on it. It was great though.

    You’re a nut. Sorry about today’s phone conversation — my phone gave a busy signal all of a sudden and then I got a call back from one of the billions of people that I have called about this issue w/ Conor’s school. We’ll catch up again soon.

    I don’t think I could stand seeing myself in those positions naked. I might scare the cat.

  5. Says:

    HAHAHA! Naked workouts! Dude I would have too much flapping to do it naked!

    I can’t say that seeing naked females doing exercises appeals. I’m sure the guys would love it, but I would struggle to look at the screen at times!

    Get a stripper pole for in the living room. It could be family fun time.

    Yeah right! She’s naked so you can see the “full extention” of every muscle! The point of that video is certainly full extensions…but not of the muscular variety.

    Maybe if they were belly dancing? (That’s suppossed to be good exercise).I don’t know, I’d be struggling to look at the screen too?
