Postpartum Recovery: Day 9

---

Workout Reflection:
Ooh, that felt good. Except for the jump-roping. Postpartum + jumping = very wet pants.

I was pretty wobbly on my box jumps. I have some sort of mental block that it is going to collapse under me, so it's hard for me to get after it.

Day 4: Whole 30
It's amazing how good my body feels. I thought I would have withdrawal symptoms and cravings, but nothing yet. In fact, I made nachos for the babysitter and J with no temptation at all. That's progress.

I find that when I make one of my former favorite meals and there is not a single thing I can eat on the plate, that plate becomes far less appealing.

I've also lost 3.5 pounds. Boo-yah.
