Fitness Update: How I Stay in Shape as a Mom

April 30, 2018

FacebookTwitterPinterestMixEmail

I wanted to share a fitness update with you all since we’re already months into the new year and I know so many of you set health and fitness goals for 2018. In January I did my first Whole30 and absolutely loved the experience. While I have not stuck to a Whole30 diet I have been trying to make conscious decisions about my meals. They aren’t always healthy but I try to be cognizance of what I’m eating and when/why I make bad decisions when it comes to food.

I notice that my unhealthy choices typically happen when I’m not prepared. This includes when I’m running low on food in the fridge or out running errands and I didn’t pack any snacks. I think being conscious of what you’re eating and why is the first step to improving and making healthy choices easier for yourself.

As for working out and staying in shape, I’ve been scheduling time to go to the Bay Club 2-3 times a week. Since they have daycare and Mason is now super comfortable, I know I won’t be called mid-workout to come and pick him up. That did happen a few times at first because he wouldn’t stop crying. I am so happy now that I know if I make the effort to workout and get myself to the club that I’ll be able to workout.

I’ve mainly been taking group classes like Bodypump and yoga but also like to get into the spin room when there isn’t a class going on. I just had a one-on-one pilates class and it totally reminded me of how much I used to love going to pilates. I definitely think I’ll be scheduling around those classes for the rest of our time in San Jose.

But besides taking classes at the gym I’ve been trying to be outside with Mason. If it’s just going for a walk and pushing him in the stroller or chasing him at the park. That can be pretty good cardio! Between running around with him in the grass or pushing him on the swing or helping him around the jungle gym. Also, getting in some pool time with him has been a lot of fun! Since he can’t swim yet holding him up in the water while swimming around is super easy on my muscles but is a good way to engage my core.

I’d love to hear what you all do to stay in shape and how you keep it fun! I’m all about keeping my workouts fun and keeping an active lifestyle inclusive of Mason definitely helps.

My gift to myself. My latest @chanelofficial bag a My gift to myself. My latest @chanelofficial bag and a freshly organized living room with new faux floral stems that fit in my amber glass vases perfectly! I purchased this beauty @therealreal and couldn't be happier with it. It's the perfect elevated everyday bag. I fell in love with it as soon as I saw the color. I'd been eyeing the Gabrielle Bag for a while and was glad I waited to pull the trigger till now. It was definitely worth the wait to score this color. Chanel has one of the best resale values so I know I can't go wrong splurging on this baby! โฃ

I also just sent out a large box of goods to The RealReal to consign as I am trying hard to pair down my closet and get everything organized before baby arrives in June. I know I have a long way to go but making a little progress daily is so much easier and not at all overwhelming.
16 weeks today and finally getting a first trimest 16 weeks today and finally getting a first trimester blog post out! I'm talking about the differences between first and second pregnancies. Some of the common changes most women will experience the second time around as well as some personal differences I've experienced thus far. I'm also sharing some bump pics that show just how different my baby bump can look depending on angle as well as time of day. I tell you, it's constantly changing in size! So if you're at all curious, click on over to the blog (link in bio) to give it a read! And if you're also pregnant, I'd love to know which of the differences you've experienced this pregnancy!
My favorite photo from the weekend. Truly blessed My favorite photo from the weekend. Truly blessed to live by the beach. Mason loves watching the waves with us and going down to the beach to build sand castles. When it's not so cold it's almost impossible to get him out of the ocean and off the beach!
