How is the holiday going??
So let's talk fitness...
made with canva
Are you are a gym junkie or do you love exercise and keeping fit? please where do you get the drive and motivation to even try?
Because my mind is willing but my body is weak to even begin.
I love the idea of being fit, flat tummy, toned abs, and great muscles, especially in ladies. I remember how I had a plan to exercise and snap back after birthing my son , I downloaded lots of fitness application, saved pictures I saw online about routine exercises, got a belly wrap for exercises and I just couldn't wait to give birth and get started.
I deleted those applications and pictures immediately after the baby arrived, my excuse was I needed some for my baby's picture. When I am ready I would start again.
Story of my life🥺🥺
I went out the other day to get some things sorted and I had to climb to the 4th floor using the stairs because there was no elevator in sight, getting to the 3rd floor I had to pause to catch my breath.
I didn't know when I spoke out loud saying
“ Esther you are So unfit”
the person coming behind ran up the stairs and showing herself, smiling at me like I was talking to her🙄
In my head, the daily running around that my 9month old make me do and the fact that I carry him regularly as he weighs 10.3kg now is more than enough exercise I needed...I lie
What do I do??
I decided that since I am finding it difficult to exercise, let me at least eat healthy right??
That's how I went to get lots of fruit, cut them, and put them in my fridge and that was the day PHCN(power holding company of Nigeria ) Nepa decided that they want to take the light for 2/3 days...my enemies at work.
See me eating fruit morning, afternoon, evening... I was on a fruit diet just to exhaust everything quickly, then I decided to infuse my water with lemon and cucumber, which I loved.
Anyone who came visited, drank my infused water, my husband even stopped drinking normal water, he says it's too cheap 🤣that lemon water is the kind of water expensive people drink. So you can imagine how I have to daily renew our water jug with lemon and cucumber.
It was all sweet o, till I got tired but I Would continue. when I see cucumber and lemon to buy.
But the whole aim of writing this is that I want to keep fit, I don't have any gym in my environment, and even if I did I can't possibly take my baby to the gym.
The funny thing is getting fit right now is very important to me because I need to correct my diastasis recti ASAP(as soon as possible)...It is my new months mission
