. . . . . . . . . . . . Week 1 Body after Baby Post

I totally copied/pasted this from another mama's blog (thanks alissa!)

I need the accountability - I really like the idea of posting what I eat and how much I work out online. It is a lot more effective than just reading my journal myself.

And Alissa put her measurements. I love that idea - so I can see other improvements instead of just weight.

I added one thing to mine - at the end of each day I will reflect on what I ate and how active I was. This will help me do better the next day!

Starting weight: 155

Starting measurements for the Body After Baby Challenge:
Arms: 11.5
Waist:31.5
Hips: 41.5
Thighs: 22
