Mommy's First Run - err, Jog (10/18/10)

After breakfast and our walk with Dakota, Ellie was still fast asleep in her car seat so mommy took advantage!  I jumped on the treadmill for a 20-minute workout, the first one since Ellie being born!
But shh, don't tell the doctor, I'm not supposed to be working out until after my 6-week check-up (which is Thursday)...

With Ellie next to the treadmill, I ran half a mile followed by a quick walk and then a mile straight.  For the first run back after 10 weeks I can't complain about the distance or the pace.  But I WILL rave about Ellie sleeping the entire time (and still sleeping now!). 

For those interested, I'm down 18 of the 24 pounds I put on during pregnancy.  Although I did put on weight before pregnancy, so I still have a goal of about 12 more pounds to take off.  Not very easy with Halloween candy (which I always buy) and my chocolate addiction - I keep forgetting that I'm not pregnant anymore...oops  :-)
