Just In Case...

I have decided to take a break from working out for a little while. Today I am 7 weeks 2 days pregnant; this day was the day we lost our last baby. I know that it is good to exercise when you're pregnant, but I just feel better with taking it easy for the next week or so just to be safe. My first appointment is in 10 days so I will see what my doctor says at my appointment and take it from there. I feel bad that I'm not going to be doing really anything as far as exercise, but I would rather not be as active and save this baby than to possibly lose a pound (which technically I shouldn't really be doing anyways anymore). So that's where I am right now. I am still going to eat as healthy as I can to try and make this pregnancy healthier than with Taylor, and I will pick up with my workout as soon as I feel I'm in the clear with this baby.

Change Of Plans

Trav and I have pretty much come to the conclusion that he won't be doing P90X with me very often. Since he isn't going to really be doing it with me I've decided to do it a little differently at least during my pregnancy. I've decided I'm going to mostly just do the more cardio workouts. I will do Plyometrics, Kenpo X, Yoga X, and maybe Core Synergistics. We'll see how this goes... Hoping I don't get to sick so I'll have the motivation to do it! For now I'm not looking for amazing results considering the fact that I have to take it easy cause of the pregnancy so my goals during my pregnancy are to mainly stay active so my body will hopefully bounce back a little faster this time around and hopefully bounce back completely this time!! we'll see!

Must... Keep... Going...

The past few days we've gotten a little lazy with our workouts. It's making me nervous, but Trav hasn't really been doing it with me (still) so I'm having a hard time finding motivation to do it on my own. Thoughts of "just do it after you have the baby" keep creeping into my mind. I just want this pregnancy to be a healthier one than with Taylor so when I do need to lose the weight after it comes off easier and there isn't as much to lose! I hope and pray God continues or starts to give me more motivation to keep up with this workout and have a healthier pregnancy this time around!

Yoga Shmoga!

Why is it that something that's supposed to be soo relaxing is so stinkin' HARD! The yoga in P90X is an hour and a half long! Both times I've done it i haven't gotten through it. One, because it's HARD, and two because I've done it by myself and I just get bored with it. Hopefully Trav will do it with me next time so we will be able to do it all. He says he is going to get back on track with doing it with me every night so I'm sure that will make it better! Tonight we are doing legs and back and Ab Ripper X. Hopefully we have time to do it together!

140

I saw a number on the scale the other day that I haven't seen since the beginning of my pregnancy with Taylor. 140! Granted it didn't even last all day, but it was still exciting! I hope I lose at least a little big more before I need to start gaining for baby (That's right! I'm pregnant! almost 6 weeks along!). I want to start this pregnancy at the healthiest weight possible, and not gain as much as I did with Taylor. My doctors never said anything about the close to fifty pounds I gained with Taylor, but I know it was to much. Some women need to gain that much I know, but I didn't and i refuse to this time! It would've been one thing if I had gained that much by eating healthy and proper portions, but that wasn't the case. Therefore, this time I vow to do better at eating right and staying active.

Even before it was confirmed I was pregnant I thought I was so from the beginning I have been taking it easy when doing P90X. I still work hard, but make sure to not over do it or do any jumping. I am excited to see how how much I gain with this pregnancy! We aren't telling anyone but our immediate family and a few friends for now because our last pregnancy ended in a miscarriage so we want to make sure we are in the clear before we tell the world. We are hoping and praying that I am able to carry this baby to full term and he/she is whole and healthy!

We are into our second week of P90X and still doing pretty good! Tonight is yoga which I only did about 20 minutes of last week before I was so bored. Hopefully this time Trav will do it with me so I finish the whole thing!
