The moving work out...


well I can say that moving and unpacking and having a bigger house are a big work out for me~ the moving was busy and we moved moved moved. then unpacking and cleaning a bigger house makes me sweat and super busy. I can already feel more energy and I have lost a little weight. I hope that I can gt more exercise in as time goes. I am excited to see the changes!


How is every one else out there doing???

On the Ball

Christina was a doll and dropped off this pregnancy exercise video that you do on top of those HUGE exercise balls, which I have. I have been walking on the treadmill, but if I go faster than a 3.0, I get that heavy feeling like my insides are going to fall out. (Moms out there, you know what I mean!) Anyway, swimming still works, but I have not been able to get to the gym as often as I would like since my hubby is out of the country at the moment. SO.... Christina has saved me with this video so at least I am getting some sort of exercise in. I am not worried about losing weight or anything like that right now of course, just hoping that I can stay strong and more flexible for the birth and afterwards. Of course, with it being cold and dark so early, I just want to hibernate with a good book. Now I have no excuse not to "get on the ball" and get my heart rate up for a 1/2 hour a day. Thanks Christina!

2009 Happy New Year

Hello.
I am going into the new year with great enthusiasm. I am so glad that Sara and I have been swimming together. It has motivated me to get my butt in shape. I am doing weight watchers and staying off of milk products. I have so much energy that I think I will explode outta my skin sometimes. But thank goodness I have not.....On the days I don't swim with my swimming buddy Sara, I work out on the eliptical. I also spoke with a weight trainer at 24 hour to do a buddy weight training session with Sara but since she is prego we can't do it together. So I took a bold step and stepped it up a notch and purchased 10 weight training sessions 5 weeks ago. Don't tell my hubby. I meet with Brittany (Trainer) Once a week. She kills me and I feel like Barfing but I keep on pushing thru the barfiness. Sometimes the pain in my feet have made me cry too , but my determination and praying gets me thru. It is Biggest Loser at 24. When I leave there feeling like my fat is going to fall off I feel great...My trainer gives me detailed homework for the rest of the week.
Yesterday she just told me she wants to track what I eat so she can be my Nazi life coach. ( By the way she is getting her masters right now for life coaching) I scored!!! So yeah I may be in pain and all that stuff but I feel great. I will keep you all informed how things are going. I don't know how much weight I have lost but I am going back to the WW meetings tomorrow morning at 6:30am in Campbell. This will help me know what I am losing.
Happy New Year,
