A fellow TOS Reviewer just started a new blog meme: Fit Mommy and I’m in!
I’ve been planning to do something this year to help me stay in get in shape during this pregnancy. If I were to have any regret for this pregnancy, it would be that I wasn’t quite where I wanted to be with weight and fitness goals before the nausea hit in the first trimester. I had been running or walking everyday and loving it. Dr. has said no more running (like I want to with temps in the teens and snow-covered roads). Now that I’m 17 weeks and looking more like 27 weeks, I hope to do something everyday to at least strengthen what I have. Weight loss is not an option, but stronger muscles are.
So, my goals are:
1. Do something 6 days a week, whether it be a walking DVD or Pilates routine for pregnancy—it has to be short and sweet to fit in with everything else.
2. Drink at least 8 glasses of water.
3. Make my snacks healthier—right now my favorite is dried cranberries and almonds.
Since my weight will be going up, I’m going to report on consistency with these goals. My only measurable results will be how I feel…especially toward the end. After 4 c-sections, my abs are never going to be the same, but I’m determined to get them in as good condition as possible.
