I'm so excited to get back into the swing of things. I keep thinking about getting back to the gym. I use to go to the gym for 2 hours at a time a day atleast 3 days a week until I was 7 months pregnant. I had to stop at that time because I was having severe back pain and a rib was being pulled out on my back because of the combination of my weight and the hormones that are released that make a womans ligaments and muscles looser to let the belly grow for baby. I wasn't able to workout after #2 was born because of the c-section and then because I was home alone with the boys and the gym wouldn't watch #2 until he was 3 months old. To say the least I was bummed when I found out I had to wait a whole 4-6 weeks before I could get back to the gym, though I know now that I need that time to recover.
This weekend, however, I went and looked at a few gyms. I wasn't able to look at all my options, but I will by Tuesday. It was nice to just be out there looking at things and seeign the gyms! I've never done good with home gym/DVD workouts, I just can't get motivated and I have a hard time finding the time with two little ones running under my feet! With a gym I can drop the boys off to someone while I workout and I don't have to worry about finding motivation, the $$ is the motivation along with the idea of having some kid free time, something a SAHM doesn't get a lot of!
