I am not a vegetarian, vegan, or anything. I am not on a crash diet, flush, or fast. I'm just a young mother trying to eat better and get my kids to do the same. I fell in love with vegetables during my last pregnancy, and that's usually what I have for lunch. Most of my reason for starting this blog is to document the simplicity of the healthy meals I eat so that others can enjoy them as well, even in a short amount of time (or with one hand, as is often my case).

Football Workout!

It's football season! And I still have 15 lbs of baby weight to lose, and no impact allowed. I've been doing pilates lately, and I'm loving it. My abs and thighs will be toned!

I'm SO excited for the BYU game tonight, and with all the cleaning and cooking I'm hoping to do today (working around a needy baby) I'm not likely to get my workout in. So I'm putting together a football game workout to do while we watch the games after the kids are in bed, and thought maybe someone else could get some use out of it.

I'm still a beginner to pilates, so these are all relatively easy moves. Adjust the amounts as you'd like.

Let's keep it simple(ish) and stop there :)

I got these moves, and the names I'm using, all from the same series of videos. I'll post the 3 main videos I've been doing here so you can reference them.
