3 months postpartum

Here's my happy little Sara

Here's my sad little tummy

 

Weight has finally dropped. I feel like I had no reason to post because there was zero change this last month. But now my weight is at 134, still not happy about it compared to my other pregnancies, but oh well.

I get pretty frustrated at the gym when I can't do the ab exercises that they have us do in the classes. I'm just so weak there still.
My goal? Just to get back to where I was before and be FIT!

2 months postpartum (-8 weeks)

I've been putting off posting because I've seemed to go backwards in my progress.
I think my waist is getting bigger! How is this happening, I don't know. If you look at my last side shot you can see that I pooch out more this time.

Waist is 31"
Hips are 38"
Weight is 138

I'm so annoyed. Especially because I'm working out again, but also because I know I'm not eating well. I like treats, but they've never been a problem before.
And I want to get my stomach back in 'decent' shape before I try that Venus Freeze thing.
 

 

4 weeks postpartum

If you compare this picture to last week's picture I look a lot better.
I lost an inch in my hips! So I finally was able to squeeze into a pair of capris that are normally big on me.

I couldn't finish a 7 minute workout yesterday. I'm so out of shape.
 

3 weeks postpartum

Still not in regular clothes. Phooey.
I've been doing Lindsay Brin's CFS Method DVD in the mornings trying to get my core back in working condition.
My diastasis is about 4 inches apart right now.
I CAN'T WAIT to workout again.

Weight is at 137 (on a good day). 19 lbs to go. That seems like so much!
 

 

2 weeks postpartum & Venus Freeze

I'm annoyed that I can't fit into regular clothes yet.
Still in stretchy pants and my maternity jeans.

Here are my measurements:
Hips: 39"
Waist: 31"

My goal is to get my hips back to 35" and my waist at 28".
 

Now on to the interesting part... I saw a groupon the other day for something called Venus freeze that is supposed to tighten skin. And obviously I have skin to tighten! So I researched it and the people that were upset with the results were the ones that said it didn't get rid of cellulite and only tightened their skin; which is all I want it to do!
So in a few weeks/months, however long it takes for the bulge to go away, I will go in and give this a try. I'm curious to see the results! 

1 week postpartum pics

I'm feeling pretty good about how things are going because I looked a lot worse after I had Jane.

Here I am 1 week after having Jane:
 

And here I am 1 week after having Sara:

 

I'll be updating my weights along the side like normal.

I saw a picture like this on pinterest and I really wanted to do it.
