I have discovered why many mum's struggle to lose weight.....WE EAT THE BABY'S FOOD!!! The last few days I have found myself picking when I am feeding Callum...a bit of toast here, a cracker there and it all adds up! I am going to have to make SUCH a conscious effort to stop doing it as I am sure it piles on the calories through out the day.
Come on, hands up who else is guilty of this?! It just hit me how much I do it!
Happy Blitzing!
One woman's battle to blitz the post pregnancy belly while juggling a new born baby and the usual trials of life. No gym membership, no trainer and no gimmicks. Just a baby and a lot of motivation.

REALLY motivated
Hi all,
Well, after posting my pics I am REALLY motivated to keep the fitness up. I still want to lose a couple more pounds and just get back to triathlon fitness really after breaking my toes.
How is everyone else doing? Sandy, not heard from you for a while, how are you getting on?

Back on the wagon...again!
Well, this last week has been pretty good. I have done LOADS of rowing, working out, swimming and walking and I even managed a run. The broken toes are back in business and if registration hadn't closed I WOULD have been doing the point grey triathlon this weekend!
SO, with that in mind I will be posting mys tats again AND a picture! I have been baring all in a bikini at Kits pool and no-one has keeled over in fright which is always a good sign!
Watch this space and as always
HAPPY BLITZING!

Proud of myself!
Well, I rowed 4000m today and did an arm and core workout so feeling pretty good. The broken toe is really beginning to p*ss me off though! I have been tracking my calories and am on track. I even went to the corner coffee shop and bought Scott a Mint Frapp but I got myself an iced rooibos tea (0Cals!!!) WILL POWER!!!!
I have also swapped bread for rice cakes and I have been having eggs for lunch and munching on cucumber etc when hungry. I am trying to get used to the HUGE calorie drop from breast feeding and now not feeding.
I am working tomorrow but will be swimming or something on Thursday, we shall see.

On and Off the Wagon
Hi all
Well, I have been off and on the wagon like a yoyo the past few weeks! The weather is great, its BBQ season and it is all too easy to succumb to margaritas on the deck for sundowners! I have told Scott that I am NOT DRINKING this week as I need to get back on the wagon as I REALLY want to get back to 61kg. It may not be possible but I want to get as close as I can.
Broken toe permitting I am exercising daily. I swam 1km on Sunday, went rowing and walking yesterday with a core workout and rowed 4km and a core workout today. We shall see what things are like come Monday! I am a little scared to get on the scales as I tentatively got on the other day (after breakfast...) and had put on 1kg! I am hoping it was just the toast I just ate but maybe not!
I NEED motivation! My mate Mel got me into http://www.dailymile.com which is sort of like a facebook for workouts and it is a great motivational tool. It's free to register and if you are already a member then let's motivate each other!
How is everyone else getting on? It has been very quiet recently.
I am planning on doing something EVERY DAY this week, yoga on my rest days and I am being strict with my calories. I have officially stopped breast feeding. Callum is 11 months this week and I think I have been eating maintenance calories as opposed to losing weight so I have dropped to 1,300 a day. SO HARD after being bale to eat 1,800 and still lose. But the time had come to stop, he sort of self weaned so it was time.
As always...
