So before I became pregnant I was a big athlete. I did a lot of running and I had a trainer....I wasn't ripped but I tried....and during residency that's all you really can do. But ever since I became pregnant things have changed. That first trimester was the worst. First of all I was afraid the little guy would jump off if I worked out hard. Yes I know that's ridiculous, but when you want to be pregnant so much you can taste it your brain does crazy stuff. Now of course I have not done any serious exercise in months...add this to the cold weather, the previous holiday season and working 80hr weeks....ick. So now I'm afraid I'm going to balloon even further and end up like one of the chicks on the Biggest Loser. I'm short...I don't have r0om for much more weigth on this little frame. Plus I've already gained 10 pounds! Most women gain somewhere between 20 and 30 lbs for each pregnancy....I guess I could safely gain another 20. That still scares the crap out of me....I've never been this big in my entire life.
So I do have a plan. I'm going to try and eat more fruits and veggies....it's been iffy before now cause I needed to eat things I could keep down, and they just weren't appealing to me. I need to drink more water instead of soda or lemonade. I just need to get my bootie movin'. I made an appointment with my trainer for this week...which should be good, and the hubby and I went for a walk today. I just need to do something. I know once it gets warm out it will be easier. But with feet of snow on my doorstep I need to do something now. Wish me luck!
