Ugh! Cardio again
Getting up at 5 am really does blow. But it’s the only time I can get my fat butt in the gym. Fortunately this morning my daughter woke up a little later than usual for me to nurse her (I nurse her before I go to the gym around 4 am) so I got to sleep in a little, while my gal pal was at the gym waiting for me. I wasn’t in the mood to do cardio. I wasn’t in the mood to do much of anything. She was having a rough time with cardio too.
I’ve been getting up this early for 2 months now meeting her to workout. She is training for a competition next month and I’m in for the ride. She has made great strides. Me on the otherhand by end of day still look around 3 months pregnant. I’m soooooo frustrated. I learned that I am an emotional eater so this just makes me want to eat the carton of Breyers in the freezer. I’ve talk many away from emotional eating binges but I’m not very good at talking myself out of them. I’m trying to keep myself busy so that I won’t walk to the kitchen.
I got into this because of my girlfriend. She is totally addicted to this site. She keeps telling me about people she has seen and their transformations, how much she has learned, etc. so I’m hoping to learn as much as she has.
Well, gotta go. I have some things I need to help the husband with. Tomorrow is leg day. Will have to do it solo. GF is going away. Bummer. But thankfully I have a great crew at the gym to push me along.
Ciao

Hey! Keep it up! It will be worth it in the end. Don’t forget to eat often. This helps curb my emotional blip of "MUST STOP AT MCDONALDS!!"
It is pretty inspiring that you are a nursing mother and are back in the gym all ready, my hat is off to you!
Good luck!

Girlfriend!! First of all, you are such an amazing motivator…and as frustrated as you feel at this moment, I want you to know that if you keep doing what you are doing (minus the breyers moments and wild binges), you will not feel this way in a month…. these things take time.. let me remind you….YOU HAD A BABY JUST 4 MONTHS AGO…AND YOU HAVE A CAREER AND A HOME TO MANAGE….you inspire me with your dedication and you always have! Hang in there and don’t slack while I am Florida!!!!! Love you
