BIG change of plans!
So… the plan was to go into the air force, but I found a "better opportunity." Which would have been great… a management training program that required me to work 80 hours a week. However things began popping up such as the fact that we had to train not only people we hired but also the newbies on others’ "teams"… and we had to pay their training. So after three months, working 80 hours a week and making paychecks as low as $180 a week, I find out I’m pregnant. It could’ve been a good opportunity but now I can’t handle the stress, hours, and debt so I’ve decided to move on. Now, I definately can’t ever go in the air force because my husband is active duty and you can’t enlist if your spouse is active duty and you already have a child. Oh well… at least now I know for sure what my priorities are in life. If nothing else, it taught me that money isn’t everything, even though I still plan on banking :). Also, now I can get back into working out! I haven’t been to the gym since we moved in January and I really miss it. Plus now that I’m pregnant, I really need to get my body back on track so I don’t regret it and have complications or a hard time getting back in shape afterwards. No gym, but we have some weight equipment in the garage… guess that will work for now.

You will get your body back. If you have the self discipline now, eat well, workout you will be A okay! Some people think that you bounce back after pregnancy but I think it’s more like you work for it and it eat good and all they see is the results you get…so they think WOW! She bounced right back…But no on the other end your working your tail off…now that’s just my experience mainly because I gained a bit too much weight, but I really think that 25 pounds can be the max healthy weight you can gain if you workout and eat right, and dont over eat..I’m planning to have more children and know that this is my plan next time. In a way you have to continue pushing yourself even in pregnancy to stay looking good.
