Because I'm not.
I am very afraid of failure which is why I tend to shy away from big projects/tasks like this. And that is why I'm committing to this challenge, to get out of my comfort zone. On one hand, I do not want to do this because of fear, but on the other hand, I'm tired of being tired & being afraid.
So, whether I lose it all or not, whether I eat healthier or not, whether I forget to exercise or not, I'm going to try. As reluctant as I am to be doing this, getting out of my comfort zone is probably as important as losing the weight.
More, actually.
So, this is the plan:
1. Exercise at least 1/2 hr 6 days a week.
2. Cut my meal portions by 1/2. (Believe me, I will not starve! That's why I still have 15 extra lbs hanging around!)
3. Eat healthy snacks. No more out-0f-the bag processed "food".
4. Practice being satisfied with trying, even if I "fail".
So, there it is. In black & white. I've committed to being committed. And don't be afraid to ask how I'm doing if it seems like I'm slacking. Accountability is a great motivator.

I think you can still count your LO as a baby, at least for this purpose, lol.
Good goals, 6x a week is very ambitious. I find I have a easier time getting my calories under control if I track what I eat at least a few days a week. I use http://caloriecount.about.com/ it's free and has a great database of foods.
That cake is so cute!
I'm doing the body after baby challenge too and I just wanted to stop by to wish you luck! I'm trying to cut caffeine this week so my head is throbbing!
We can do it!
