Susan, it'll be nice to have this house stuff behind you! Jen, I have a mirror in my fitness room. When I first got one I was so suprised how "un-tough" I looked in my kickboxing. :p I honestly thought I had steller technique and super high kicks...then once I saw my reflection I was way off...

Well, Im up. Didn't sleep too well last night. :confused: We'll see how my AM goes. I haven't tried melatonin in a long time, but I know where I can get some. You always have such great ideas, Christine!

I like Ambien but won't take it with nursing babies. :p I"m going to try solo & see what happens!

Just a quick hello. I have tomorrow off. Just put jumperoo together. It looks like alot of fun. I plan on running 5 miler tomorrow (wind pending). DS has a track meet tomorrow PM and I'm supposed to meet his girlfriend. This AM was tough, but PM was better. i'm going to try to sleep...

I feel so ADD today. This AM I was blah-low energy. Did 1/2 bum bum, then DH came home so I rushed to do Imax3--dripped with sweat I felt icky after cycle 3, so I decided to rest instead. Then went for a 2 mile walk with neighbor and three kiddos. Ended cycle with second 1/2 of bum bum. So, if...

Oh, and the weight thing might be an issue too. I'm down to 128lbs. Everytime I drop down I tend to lose some energy until my body re-adjusts. I've been eating my normal stuff, exercising less since race...

I had my thyroid checked a couple months ago and it was fine. I take Vitamin D supplement daily, b/c we don't have the sun here very often. I do suffer from SADD (seasonal affective depressive disorder) but that's a Fall/Winter thing and it's symptoms allieviate during Spring. I've spoken to...

Well...... Hmmm......Feeling blah again. I did 1/2 Bum Bum and 1/3 of Imax3 and took a 20 minute nap. :o I'm drinking a Mt Dew and contemplating a bag of M&Ms to help elevate my mood. :o

Jen~ hope you can rid of the crud! I'm cleaning today. My cleaning lady didn't show up last time, and I didn't call her back. It takes so much time to coordinate things. It's easier if I just know she's going to show up. I don't think it's going to work out. Plus she was so darn slow & we...

Wow gals! What can i say? I really had a great day. I felt very "normal". I'm sure it's too soon for the meds, but I'm going to go ahead & take them for a while anyway. Thanks for all your prayers & encouragement. Depression sucks and I will not tolerate it in my life! I have tomorrow off...

Erica is also a great source of information! ....I've tapped into her knowledge quite a few times. Love ya, Erica!

Thanks Christine! I can send them back to you when I'm done if you'd like. I just did a quick google search & it can occur anytime in the first year. I'm not taking any chances, my family is way too precious and they deserve a mom that's 100 percent. :D I'll do anything for them, they are my...

Thank you for all your support! I did decide to go on Wellbutrin since I have some in medicine cabinet. If I notice any milk production issues I'll have to re-evaluate. My afternoon went much better. I went to park with my friend (and four kiddos) and walked for a few miles. The little...

Congrats! I had my twins in November. PM anytime I'd love to share my story. I wish I could say it was an easy pregnancy, but it wasn't....but it was well worth it! I love being a mom to twins (and three other). All my children are perfect! Congrats again,...this is the beginning of a...

Kendra, who are your favorite pep=talkers? By snacks, do you mean eating b/w meals? B/c I eat 6-7 times per day. Many mini-meals. I think I eat 300 calories 6-7 times/day. So in a sense, I have 4 snacks/day. I find mornings are the hardest for me. I've been even thinking of asking for...

Ugh. So many blessings, yet I'm struggling with depression lately. :( I have decided to go ahead and begin Wellbutrin again. It *may* decrease my milk production, but it works well for my Seasonal Affective Depressive Order that I get in the Fall....so maybe it'll help now too. I did get a...

Kendra, thanks for the compliment....I have a few less kids than you do! My DH is a stay-at-home Dad, so we switch off (he has coffee with his buddies in AM & I workout in the afternoons). Last week I worked 40 hrs (and commutted 12hrs) so I only got 3 days of workouts in. I don't workout on...

Hi ladies. First of all I want to congratulate all of us mommies for being so fit-conscious & would like to give our bodies a big round of applause for growing our healthy babies & recovering so well. Good job mommies & bodies!!! I am so amazed at our creation! Okay, so after my poop this AM...

Hello. I'm home but haven't had a chance to read above, hopefully I can catch up tomorrow. I made it thru my first back-to-back workdays since delivering the girls. Whew....would prefer not to do that again. lol Tomorrow i have off, then work Monday. Hope to have some energy to do a run &...

Quiet here today. ;) I decided to drive home....and I feel energetic enough...hope I'm not kicking myself tomorrow. Vanilla Fat Free Yogurt w/fresh strawberry slices for bedtime snack. Kiddos are still awake....but not for long....then mommy's not far behind... Welcome, Lily!
