I finally weighed myself. 145 lbs. I'm pleased. That's my usual post partum weight at 6 weeks. That means I have 15 lbs to lose to fit in most of my clothes. Starting today, I hope to lose a pound a week. I shouldn't lose any more than that and I shouldn't go below 130 lbs until I'm done breast feeding. Otherwise, I lose my milk supply.
I'm not very strong and my abs are shot. If I'm laying on the floor, I cannot sit up. I have to roll to my side and use my arms and legs to get up. But, I started some ab exercises with my kids (tummy rides on my legs and airplane rides on my feet up in the air.) I'm also doing sun salutations. Yesterday, I did 3 in a row. Funny how I can hold plank pretty well, but I can't do a crunch or sit-up! Today, I plan on doing 5 in a row. It doesn't sound like much, but as I said, it is going to be a slow start.
