I stayed super active when I was pregnant with Braeden, and I feel like that helped tremendously with the labor process and more. I ate healthy and was super cautious about things. This pregnancy so far has been so different and hard to maintain that same lifestyle. My first trimester all I wanted was fast food, that's about all I could keep down was to eat exactly what I had a taste for.. well now that I am feeling better I'm hoping to trim down my love handles and focus on being super healthy for this baby as well.
So many people use pregnancy as an excuse to eat all the food they want, over-eat and then those are typically the same people 15 years later claiming they still have baby-weight.. well I am bound and determined to not fall into that category especially because I know it's even harder to loose the weight after a second child.
I started this pregnancy about 10lbs heavier than I would have liked, but hey it's life and I've accepted it. So thankfully I've only gained about 5 lbs in these last 17 weeks. As long as I can maintain steady which with working out again I could even loose a little weight- I should potentially gain the same or less than I did with Braeden which I was able to loose fairly easily.
Overall I'm not going to stress about it, if I gain 30lbs or 50lbs as long as I know my baby is healthy I'm not too worried, but I plan on trying to do everything I can to maintain a healthy lifestyle and give this baby the same options I gave Braeden <3
Today I started by back to fitness journey with walking 3 miles at about 3.5 miles per hour the entire time which I was pretty happy with on my first day back. I will try and post as I can of how the journey is going and things I learn along the way :)
