I always said that when I got pregnant I would continue working out and eating the way I was.... HA, well that didn't happen! I have continued working out.... just not as much (or as intense) as I was pre-pregnancy. Before I got pregnant I was working out everyday.. sometimes twice a day! I was doing lots of cardio, weight's, yoga, zumba, and kickboxing. Since I have been pregnant, I have cut back big time on the amount of working out I was doing simply because of exhaustion and not being able to do certain activities. However, I am still getting some physical excercise like walking, zumba, prenatal yoga, light weight lifting, and swimming. I cannot wait to get back in the gym after Hayden gets here!!
As far as eating goes.. (except for my first trimester) I have continued eating pretty healthy.. just enjoying foods I wouldn't normally eat and eating a much bigger portion than I normally would! I have only had a few aversions; I cannot stand garlic!!! I don't want to see it, smell it, touch it, and definitely don't want to taste it! I have also had aversions to raw carrots and hummus. I haven't had any strange cravings though. Some of the things I have craved since I became pregnant are bisquits & gravy, green apples, vanilla milkshakes, and green peas!
During my pregnancy Paul and I have enjoyed being able to eat some things that we wouldn't normally eat! My Nana made some homemade sourdough bread (two loaves) for me. It is my absolute favorite bread and is already almost gone!!! Then, this morning Paul and I went to our favorite doughnut place Thank God Donut. Ooooooh it was Heaven!! I have really enjoyed being able to eat "whatever I want to", but I really can't wait to start working out again! So, YMCA better watch out, because I'm coming!! ; )
