Today I drove by about 15 women doing standing push ups against a stone wall as their new babies sat in strollers watching. I was driving (not walking) back from the grocery store where I had just bought a lot of wine, chocolate, milk, strawberries and ground turkey. They were all healthy looking in their tank tops and shorts and I almost had to pull over the car to catch my breath. These are sleep deprived Moms who are making time to get their game back on.
I did feel a tad guilty as my jeans are slightly tighter since I stopped breastfeeding 2 months ago. Not burning all those calories anymore has taken a bit of a toll.
But I am not going to beat myself up, because as much as I know I should be participating in more structured fitness sessions, I just can't make the time right now. I could if I tried, but I am trying at other, less physically strenuous things.
One day I may be organized enough to pull it off, but for now I'm not, and that's OK.
