Week 5
Here I am again.
Today is one month from my first pilates class, and I have to say that I am very happy with the results. After my c-section I was feeling really down, and It wasn’t the feeling I wanted to have… but it was there….
I have tried several diets, training programs from bodybuilding and Muscles and Fitness magazine, reading transformations, supplements… and nothing, I was unable to feel good, satisfy and proud… The problems of water retention and my lack of motivation were bad… But at the end of 2008 I went to visit my family and the jokes and "not so nice comments" make me feel that I have to do something.
From January I am focus in one goal: To take care of myself as I take care of my son. I deserve it 
- I have been doing cardio 5 times per week. I tried spinning but I do not like the fact that I cannot leave the room if I need it….I am a shy person and I did not want to explain to the instructor that I was new…stupid…I know
- I am doing weight lifting but instead of trying to lift a lot of kilos,.,,,, I prefer more repetitions and less weight (better for my back)
- And for my belly I am doing Pilates. After the c-section the pain in the belly was a problem besides that all my pants (from before pregnancy) were too small….very small…depressing…. I started the 26th january with a PT and I am really happy. I have started to feel my abs after many months. besides that I have enrolled in a course of Yoga… I started last weekend and It was very demanding…..
Good things is that I feel much better, I am loosing weight and my legs are looking better. My belly is a matter of time… but now I have learnt that with intention (and doing it eh?) everything is possible… everything
