So I’m stuck in the house with 3 little tikes and I have to say it really isn’t so bad! We are luckily on spring break and haven’t had to start homeschooling quite yet, we start Tuesday. I got the email last night that school has been cancelled till April 30th which I know might bum a lot of people out but for me, I have a 1st grader and a pre schooler so I can’t say it’s really that challenging.
Unfortunately everything is shut down, even the gym. After talking it over with my husband we decided to turn the basement into our home gym. We have a few things down there already, he has his bike which he uses Zwift for, I have my water rower, and we have a small collection of free weights, resistant bands, stability balls, etc. So we decided with the money we are saving from our gym membership, to invest into the basement. I want to start a YouTube channel which has always been a dream of mine to document my weight loss journey as well as help motivate others in my situation or just want to lose weight but feel stuck. I’ve wanted to do it years ago but ended up surprisingly getting pregnant with my son so 2 years has gone by and I'm not surprised I gained more baby weight. I think what better time to start then now when I’m confined to home or the outdoors (but no public buildings) and have plenty of time!
So..yeah that’s my plan! I ordered some cross training shoes as well as a new pair of running shoes and I'm gonna work on this weight loss! I’m currently stuck at 253 lbs. My goal by the end of the month is to be in the 240′s or lose some inches at least! I pinned some rowing workouts, at home lifting workouts, and even some beginner running tips/tricks. I am also going to start documenting on here more as well as my IG: Sippycupsncoffee (follow my journey!!) because I feel like this is such a great outlet and so far great support. If you are wanting more support for your journey or feel stuck, feel free to let me know! I’d love to offer my support and just be there for you 😊 We can do it!!! Wish me luck!!
