Working out at home


I never thought the day would come...but it did.  The days were getting shorter, Kevin has been gone all day several days a week, I'm on full time mommy status, and I've basically gotten bored...

it was the day I cancelled my gym membership. 

Gasp. I know. What? Who is this person? The girl who loved to hop on the treadmill for an hour while watching cake boss reruns or Fox News with the lovely Elizabeth Hasslebeck. I am no longer her! 

Now are the days of stepping on my 80s cardio stepper and pulling some major cardio moves that makes me WORK and oh how it makes me sweat! 


Now I Zumba with the oh so amazing Fitnessista and do some of her Shape Up workouts that leave me crying with an awesome burn. 

I also picked up a 15 pound kettlebell and workout with that as well. I feel that everywhere!  

I was so scared and worried that I wouldn't feel that cardio and the bliss I felt after running for 45 minutes but I do! And I'm pretty sure I feel it even more now! I love it too because I don't even have to leave my house and pick up all those cool gym cooties.  

So that's what I'm doing these days. It's pretty nuts how fast things turn around and how I'm proven wrong, but totally okay with it :)  Abby sleeps, I watch her snooze on her monitored while burning my calories and never have to leave my house. I get to do barre, Zumba, kettlebell, and HIIT with some pretty awesome trainers, all while never leaving my living room! I call that a success. :) 

So, goodbye gym, i might be back, I might not. We will see!
