*Super cute swim by Lime Ricki!*
Confession time: I got into a bit of a postpartum workout slump. Between the accident and the surgery and our nursing issues I just felt pulled into too many directions. But those are just excuses. What I needed was a fun challenge to kick my booty back into gear. I found the Mommy Fit Challenge with idealfit postpartum workout and it worked!
Mommy Fit Challenge and idealfit- how I was motivated to get back into my postpartum workout.
First let’s talk about this Mommy Fit Challenge. It’s a 15 day workout and meal plan guide thats perfect for pregnancy and postpartum. The trainer, Nicole, has had three of her own so she gets it! It’s low impact exercises, quick and easy meals, and most importantly a great support system (Facebook group) to motivate you into getting into shape. I personally loved Nicole’s workouts and they were effective yet gentle as I recovered.
Nicole and I both use the idealfit products and have noticed a big difference. If you remember the brownie batter overnight oats I did- those used this delicious Chocolate Brownie protein powder! That chocolate brownie yumminess cuts down on my nursing sweet tooth for sure! An added plus is this protein is only 80 calories for 20 grams of protein! That’s amazing!
I also really enjoy the Pink Lemonade BCAAs. BCAAs aid in muscle recovery and building, which cuts down on how long you’re sore after a workout, while also building lean muscle. What I love about idealfit BCAAs is they don’t contain the heaps of sugar most brands put in their mixtures. As always, talk to your doctor before adding in any supplements, especially if nursing or pregnant. I got the go-ahead from mine to use these while nursing.
Once I’m done nursing I’m excited to add in the fat burner and pre-workout. Heaven knows I could use that extra energy!

This is a great challenge! I am 15 months post partum and I totally understand the need for an extra push to stay fit after baby!
This sounds like a great challenge! I got really healthy during my last pregnancy and then because of school, work and adjusting to life as a mom, I fell off the wagon and lost all of those healthy habits
Ooo… I’m definitely going to have to check this out! <3
You look amazing!!

I am officially 2 months postpartum today. I was super fit before this pregnancy and worked out throughout, but I still have a good 12 or so lbs to lose
You look great & the shake sounds delicious! Keep up the good work!
I love this challenge! I signed up. This is exactly what I need.
You look amazing! I’m nursing too, it’s def hard to find balance between breastfeeding and losing weight!
I’m due with my third (and final) baby in November. I have vowed to get into shape after that. Something about my body finally being “mine” again after all these babies! You ALWAYS look great!
Girl you look amazing! I love that swimsuit!
You seriously look UH-MAZZZZZZING!!! I had done well getting back into the swing of working out and eating (mostly) healthy…..then we went on our big trip 6 weeks ago and basically everything went out the window and I haven’t gotten back on the wagon yet. My core muscles feel like they’re spilling out everywhere – UGH lol.
This is awesome, thanks for the great post, Jess. You are so motivating- I’m finally able to get through the day with maybe getting sick only once so far this week and have gotten back into some workouts. I really need it and am going to check this out now. And how perfect you linked your overnight oats because I specifically had that on my mind today and was going to search my Pinterest board for it – now I don’t have to!!
