Luckily, the stretch marks and ponch are usually hidden by clothing, but it doesn't make me feel good to know they are there. Breastfeeding and caring for 3 little ones has helped me lose the pounds but I feel like my body is made of jello. I'd like to get rid of the wiggle and jiggle. I'll come back here for some motivation, thanks Jackie!Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00047353377825946208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591350507271655442.post-11583470902392214162009-07-09T05:35:37.026-07:002009-07-09T05:35:37.026-07:00i still use "it's the baby weight" ...i still use "it's the baby weight" 3 years later! people just smile and nod :)linneynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591350507271655442.post-11199090199840071992009-07-08T19:55:34.181-07:002009-07-08T19:55:34.181-07:00Look at all these groove-getting gals!

Chasing a kid has only made me sweaty and craving chocolate.<br /><br />3LS. how did you find the time and motivation? Tell us more!<br /><br />CD, no need to be a mom. We ALL lose our groove along the way. Thanks for joining in!<br /><br />Stacy, we just have to find something that doesn't feel like so much "work." That's why Pilates was so great for me. I might just have to buy a DVD.<br /><br />Angela, I've always noticed when I'm feeling down, it's the worst time to try to start. I try and try to change my mindset and the positive behavior follows. <br /><br />RP Mom, yeah! we can walk the hills!JackieMacDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14979691048511777585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591350507271655442.post-25543866499532804352009-07-08T16:45:13.369-07:002009-07-08T16:45:13.369-07:00YEAH!!!

First of all aside from loving my kids I do not have a domestic bone in my body. So the housework alone keeps me overwhelmed. and I'm sorry to say that food has always been a staple for me. I guess that's why I'm fat. LOL! I am with you on the get my groove back and start exersizing. Really I have no excuse there is a gym at the apartment complex where I live.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01827034087011665148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591350507271655442.post-59169648064786117062009-07-08T10:46:05.852-07:002009-07-08T10:46:05.852-07:00I can't seem to get my groove at all.

I tried to start walking/running a few weeks back and then my back started hurting. I'm getting help with that. I had all intentions of getting up this morning and starting it all back up and was just too lazy. Now I'm feeling guilty and realizing that I'm never going to lose any weight if I don't get off my ass. My energy is zapped. Please keep us filled in...I really want to jump on your bandwagon and I'm hoping that I don't fall off this time.Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12055955854167714259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591350507271655442.post-20125672629405863392009-07-08T07:42:25.058-07:002009-07-08T07:42:25.058-07:00I'm not a mom yet, but I'm trying to get m...I'm not a mom yet, but I'm trying to get my groove back too! I was good about exercise my last year of law school, but when I started work this year (and now that I'm moving this fall) I fell off the exercise and eating right bandwagon. But just this week I recommitted myself to getting up in the mornings to run. I'm trying the chirunning method (landing on the forefoot, not on the heels and wearing thin-soled shoes) so my calves are killing me, but I feel better already!<br /><br />You can do this!Cdnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591350507271655442.post-7424945323438807952009-07-08T04:41:05.841-07:002009-07-08T04:41:05.841-07:00I lost my groove too after three kids and becoming...I lost my groove too after three kids and becoming enslaved by their constant needs. I started running about 6 months ago and it has changed my life! I have done two 5k's and am signed up for a 10k next week abd GULP a 1/2 marathon in October!! It is such an empowering thing(and the hard bod doesn't hurt either!)<br />BethBethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10584430796347575317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591350507271655442.post-86151252378868260092009-07-07T20:33:54.707-07:002009-07-07T20:33:54.707-07:00Good Gravy Jackie - you mean exercise is the key t...Good Gravy Jackie - you mean exercise is the key to weight loss? I just gave birth to Baby #5 3 months ago and every day older she gets is less an opportunity for me to use the ol' "I just had a baby" excuse dadgum it. I curse everyone (mostly of the celebrity nature) who cite "chasing children" and breastfeeding as the reasons why they can wear a thong in public. Chasing 5 kids and breastfeeding just makes me freaking hungry. I'm ready to get my groove back so I'm in. Can you travel to Illinois and kick my fat butt? I'm not sure virtual motivation is enough ;)Leadia Jarvishttp://poolhallace.livejournal.com/noreply@blogger.com
