So Operation Chisel was initiated as of 15:00 yesterday. I am almost 6 months postpartum and I’m just now getting enough freedom from my little monkey to get back into a work out routine. It’s not that I haven’t been exercising since Chick Pea was born, but this will be the first time that I can actually work out regularly at the gym. So far, I’ve been going to yoga every week and I was walk/running 2-3 times a week up until a couple of months ago because it got too cold. I know, I’m a huge wimp – but it’s because I’m an equator baby and I haven’t lived in cold weather before!

I’ve always been fortunate enough to have been blessed with one of those fast metabolisms; the kind that make people women hate me because I can eat whatever I want without gaining weight. So even though I gained 40 pounds while pregnant, I’ve been back to my pre-preg weight for a few months (breastfeeding can also be thanked for that – it rocks!). But I am very out of shape . . . and the holidays didn’t help!

So this post is not intended to brag about my great genes, its purpose is to put this mission in writing in an effort to make me stick to my regimen so that I can look cute in the denim variety. Being healthier is nice too, but blah blah blah – looking cute is better.

Heymann, if you’re out there . . . it’s on!
