The Plan For This Past Week Was:

• Walk/jog with the stroller a minimum of two miles a day 7 days a week
• Attend Mom and Baby Yoga Class on Wednesdays
• Attend Postnatal Pilates on Fridays
• Reduce my caloric intake
• Adjust plan at the end of every week (as needed) in order to reach the goal.

This Week’s Results…

With a daily budget of 1500 calories, one pilates class, and roughly 20 miles logged I was able to lose 2.5 pounds this week. I met all my goals except for one since we were unable to attend yoga class on Wednesday due to a freak flooding incident. Yes, it really did happen and if you don’t believe me call the Valencia Yoga Tree and ask them yourself. All and all, I am rather proud of myself (if you can’t tell).

A bit about Nike+. I am presently grumpy with Nike for the following reasons:

• This week their widget (a.k.a. Flaunt your Mini) and Twitter integration was buggy and several of my workouts did not post.
• Although the product experience on the iPhone is intuitive, the overall usability of nikeplus.com is not. I am hoping it will improve soon.
• Lastly, I experienced a sensor malfunction (all right, it was user error) and 3 miles were not recorded. Truth be told, even though this isn’t Nike’s fault I need someone to blame.

Next Week’s Plan:

• Walk/jog with the stroller a minimum of two miles a day 7 days a week
• Complete one personal training session at Fit Personal Fitness Studio
• Attend Mom and Baby Yoga Class on Wednesdays
• Attend Postnatal Pilates on Fridays
• Keep my caloric intake to roughly 1500 calories a day
• At the end of the week, adjust the overall plan (as needed) in order to reach the goal.
