RE: New workout partner/walker in S. Orange County CA
Unfortunately, I'm not in Orange County, but I feel your pain - and I've only had one child! It was really hard for me to get started, but I decided to bite the bullet and hire a trainer. It had been so long since I'd worked out that I didn't want to hurt myself, and honestly, the fact that I've shelled out all this money means I'd better make it to every one of those appointments. I'm also working out with a friend who is training for the police force, so he's really been a big help. Our trainer is great - he did a ton of research to make sure I wouldn't damage my poor, stretched-out abs and printed out tons of post-natal exercises for me to do. It's hard and it means I don't have any mad-money for the summer, but after five weeks, I am starting to feel better about myself. It's frustrating, but the motivation I get from Jay (my trainer) keeps me going. HTH!
