Back at it!
So, according to my Wii Fit, I am hovering around the same weight, no gain, no loss. Which I think is great considering I haven't done any exercising in the last 2 1/2 months and I am pregnant and hungry all the time. Anyways, just finished a yoga session with the kids on the Wii Fit and it felt great to stretch. It reminded me of how good it felt to be working out regularly. So, I will be slowly getting back into this week and hopefully by next week no longer worried about pulling anything. I will be adding some strength training on Wednesday along with the yoga and then maybe add the running and boxing on Friday. We'll see how it goes. I am just happy to feel stretched out again. I have got 8 more months of being pregnant and I would really like to weigh a whole lot less than I did with my first two pregnancies. Plus, my doctor said I would recover from my c-section faster and I will definitely need that with 3 kids. So, feeling like I have had some good breathing going on again and stretched. I also found this book at the maternity store, called, The Buff Mom's Guide to Pregnancy. I will be incorporating those exercises into my week as well, because it gives me more great ideas for using my awesome work out equipment I got for Christmas. I am so excited and invigorated now. Why did I let myself get so lazy? Keep it Fit people!

Has died...
The journey to fitness has died for the moment. The first trimester in a pregnancy is always grueling. With heartburn, already, ugh! and the exhaustion by 8pm, I have no motivation to work out. There are days where I feel tight and know I should be at least be doing my yoga on the Wii Fit, but I have allowed myself laziness. I have only 4 more weeks left in the first trimester and I am excited for that second wind. My goal is to AT LEAST, get started doing Yoga next Monday! I need to feel a little more limber. I guess knowing how tired I already am and knowing how tired working out makes me, does not seem appealing right now either. So if I do stretching so that my muscles don't get all tight, by the time I get my second wind, the kids and I will be dancing around again and doing our exercises. I need to be healthier this pregnancy, not that I wasn't with my others, but I am still heavy and it is going to be killer if I don't work on this and really be dedicated. Luckily, I have my kids who love to copy mommy's work out so it makes it a fun time we can share together.
