My Total Preggo and healthy blog

Been awhile since I blogged so I thought why not.  In my second trimester now (week 15) and have MUCH more energy now!  Due to the upswing in energy, I am able to workout longer and harder than I was before.  Now I am back to my regular 4 day split (trying to do leggies 2X a week) and since my boobs don’t hurt as bad, I can RUN again!  Woo hoo!!!  Just have to keep an eye on my HR so it does not go over 160. 

My weight is holding at 140 now and I am hoping to keep it there until 20 weeks.  That way, I can avoid gaining more than 25 lbs during the pregnancy..  I think by keeping my diet relatively clean (which I do except the few treats each week- Hey, I am pregnant!!!) I can do it!

Thanks to all of you for keeping me motivated during all this.  It has been very difficult to watch my 6 pack disappear and see my muscles hiding under the extra fluid now that I am pumping 3X the blood, BUT I am changing my attitude and surrendering to it. 

Hell, if I am going to be pregnant, I may as well enjoy it right!!!

Keep motivating yourself and others!!!

Cya!
