I love a challenging, sweaty workout myself, but hear me out...

➡️ Consistent low impact workouts are better than inconsistent super challenging workouts.

➡️ Walking daily is going to give you better long-term results than 2-3 high intensity workouts per month.

So, if you are struggling to exercise consistently, try walking.

✨️ Bonus: You don't need a gym membership and you don't need a lot of expensive equipment.

Working out in the gym has been a habit of mine for 20 years. So transitioning to motherhood, new responsibilities & new time restrictions has been a challenge to say the least.

Social media shows us women bouncing back immediately and seemingly having more than the 24 hours the rest of us have in a day.

That hasn't been my story.

I've been walking more than running and I have yet to return to the gym, opting for at home workouts instead.

BUT I miss the gym. I miss training hard. So, I'm working on a plan that will allow me to return to some of those things.

Stay tuned.

You don't lack motivation. You lack systems. 👇🏽

Busy people aren't lazy, they just run on max capacity. If your fitness routine requires you to make extra decisions (find clothes, fill water, find keys,etc ) when you're already running on overload, you will skip it.

So what can you do? Plan ahead.

👉🏽 Put everything you need (your gym clothes, water bottle, headphones, and keys) in one spot, right by the door.

👉🏽 With everything ready, all you have to do is grab everything and go

👉🏽 This system reduces the mental energy of starting. It literally makes it easier to go than to skip.

Stop depending on willpower. Build a routine that makes the right choice the easiest choice. ‼️

Motivation is great for starting, but Discipline is what gets long-term results.

We all have those days when our energy is low and skipping the workout feels easier.

That's where discipline comes in.

Discipline is the promise you make to yourself to show up. It’s choosing your long-term goals over short-term comfort.

Consistency, especially when no one is watching, is where real change happens. When motivation dips (and it will!) depend on your discipline. That's the secret to success.

The first pictures were August 6. The progress pictures were today, November 2.

This is my progress while breastfeeding and mainly walking for exercise.

Moving forward I'm going to be more intentional about what I'm eating and increase my strength training. Also, as it gets darker earlier my walking will be limited, so I will shift to more indoor exercise.

Meal prep makes my life easier & this is process I've followed for 20 years (I started meal prepping in 2005!).

Do you meal prep??

Consistency is 🔑

10/19/2025

I'm learning to balance the responsibilities of motherhood and everything else. There's less time to workout, less time to cook healthy meals and less energy to do it all anyway. I may never be the 5am gym girlie with perfectly done meal prep again... or I might be. Time will tell. But for now, I'm learning to be where I am and adjust my approach to this season of life. I still have fitness goals, I just needed a different approach.

My postpartum fitness journey is about relearning to enjoy the journey… and giving myself grace in the meantime.

I’m not chasing perfection. And I am not expecting to instantly be back where I was before - because I believe that with time I can be even better than before.

I’ll be sharing more of my journey in my stories and on my page. Follow along - even if you aren’t a new mom, or a mom at all. There’ll be something for everyone.

Saints 5K in the books. Not the results I'm used to getting, but a good step towards my fitness goals.

Next goal? Reintroduce running.

08/15/2025

I'm officially 31lbs down from my pregnancy weight.

I gained 38lbs while I was pregnant.

My current goals are obviously to get back to my pregnancy weight and then lose the 10-15lbs I was trying to lose when I got pregnant 😂

But more than that, I want to get back to running and lifting - and feeling strong 💪🏽

Stay tuned for updates and to see what I'm doing.
