Another week has flown by and I am now TEN pounds away from my pre-pregnancy weight! I think it took me over six months to get to this point after I had Ashton, so I am happy! I have had some trouble with motivation this week though. It is hard to want to do Insanity EVER. I have tried doing it around 7am before my Stroller Strong Moms class. I have tried doing it around noon after. I have tried doing it before dinner and after dinner. Basically, I just never want to do it. Because I hate to give up (I'm pretty stubborn that way), I have decided to think of it as a virus that has to run its course. So, in 30 days I will be Insanity-free FOREVER! But until then, each day continues to be a challenge. I am now taking a friend's advice to try it barefoot, and it is actually EASIER on my joints, believe it or not. So that makes it easier to tolerate. One more time slot in the day remains for me to try, and that is around 5am. There is a spin class a couple days a week at 5:30 that I want to take and the other days I want to see if I can do Insanity then to get it over with. I'm usually awake then anyway, so we will see how that goes this week!
In the meantime, while I am not at all happy with my body yet, it is certainly shrinking and constantly reminds me of that scene in one of my favorite movies, Death Becomes Her, where Meryl Streep's character drinks the eternal life potion and her body instantly transforms and tightens into a younger version of herself, as demonstrated in this awesome clip:

I feel like that is exactly what is happening to me, just at a much slower pace!
