I am so sorry that I have not kept up with my blog, but I have the best reason why! I'm pregnant!!! Well I have been for a while now;we are at 36 weeks now. As you can imagine my weight loss had to take a back seat to more important things. I did gain a little more weight that I would have wanted to but nothing to bad. My last weigh in on here was 188.4 in February. I now weight 205. So I have gained about 16.6 lbs. The goal was not to gain more than 15lbs, but I felt I could safely gain up to 20lbs.
So now is the time that I start thinking about what needs to be done to continue my weight loss journey after the baby is born. This is where I need you guys! I figure I can start back on moderate exercise plan, maybe just walking, about 2 weeks after the baby is born. I'm going to have to play a careful balancing act because I need to add enough calories to my diet where my milk production does not suffer but not so many as to where I am gaining weight. I have my body bug still and am wondering how many calories you think I should shoot for. Also any advice on what kind of work out goals I should be thinking of setting. My first goal is to start working out consistently and after that I would like to get back to where I was. Walking/light jogging 3 miles in about 45 min. How long do you guys think I should give my self to get back to that?
Thanks a bunch, I'll keep you guys posted about the baby and when we start our weight loss road again.
