ROAD TO HEALTH

PREGNANCY UPDATE!

Sun, 19 May 2013 22:53:00 -0400

hello everyone…it’s been forever!

i am currently just about 37 weeks, which means that the end is near! pregnancy, although an amazing experience, is very tiring and often times ugly. to this day i still don’t get those women who ‘love’ being pregnant! with this pregnancy i have experienced morning sickness, constant exhaustion and no energy, skin break-outs, varicrose veins, stretch marks, terrible leg cramps that literally had me crying at night and the most obvious, weight gain! i thank my lucky stars that it’s almost over!

so far, i have gained 45 pounds! can you believe it?!
after finding out i was pregnant i stopped going to the gym and gave myself a free pass to eat whatever my heart (and baby) desired! i always said i wouldn’t use pregnancy as an excuse to overeat but it’s been a challenge. to be honest, i’m not too concerned with the weight gain, as both baby and i are perfectly healthy thus far.
with the end near i am getting excited and really nervous to go through labour. however, the thought of seeing my little girls face makes all my worries go away.

i’ll keep you all posted on the arrival of my little baby girl!

24w, 26w, 28w!

MAJOR UPDATE

Wed, 17 Oct 2012 09:02:00 -0400

i am SO SORRY for not updating my blog this past little while. the truth is i haven’t been feeling very good at all lately, having constant tummyaches and nausea. i took a pregnancy test after i was four days late (i have NEVER been late in my life!) and it came back POSITIVE!

I AM PREGNANT!

as for getting healthy, since i found out i haven’t been to the gym. i am unsure of what i can and cannot do now and i really don’t want to do anything to jeopardize the pregnancy since we are still within the first trimester. i have a doctors appointment on the 22nd so i will clear things up then and get back to working out.
i also find myself more motivated than ever to eat better and be healthy.

hope everyone is doing well!

MIA

Thu, 27 Sep 2012 11:22:49 -0400

i’ve been mia for a while.
not sure what is going on with me but i haven’t been at the gym in THREE WEEKS and my eating has only gone down hill. i have lost all motivation to be healthy and i don’t know why.
i’ve stopped doing the 30DS because i found it too repetitive.
i haven’t ran once this month…so much for my september goals, right?
i have yet to find a job that pertains to my education. they all want years of experience or more education; i don’t have either.

this could possibly be the lowest point in my life.

i’m not pregnant (YET!) but how cute is this?!

SERIOUSLY?!

there is nothing worse than waking up at 345am and having to wait until 530am for the gym to open!
wasting time on tumblr!

sadly, this is way too accurate!

not a good start to my day…meant to go to the gym but didn’t; instead, i decided to catch up on the last two episodes of pretty little liars (priorities, i know)! can i just say hsh#$@bkjvbvn! i was so not expecting that!

UPDATE!

~~new laptop;~~ check!

i finally bought a new laptop and i am so glad to be back.
what’s been new? where to begin…

a few weeks back i was off for 11 days from work (hello vacation time)!
i was offered a big girl job but i declined it because the pay was awful and it didn’t necessarily utilize my education, meaning anyone could go and get the job (no degree necessary).
during my vacation i hoped to go hard at the gym; that backfired. i had the most lazy 11 days off; i ate everything and anything and didn’t step in the gym once…very counterproductive, i know!
i gained 3-5 lbs!
back at work i got asked why i’ve been gaining so much weight lately because apparently i used to be skinny. i think this was their way of asking if i was pregnant (because that’s a must when you’re married apparently) but yeah no, give me a minute while i go and die of humiliation!
currently, i’m slowly getting back into my routine of eating better and working out. i am still hovering around 183-184 lbs; i want nothing more than to be done with the 180’s!

that’s all for now; going to watch ‘battlefield’ with my hubby!

sorry for being MIA lately!
my laptop has crapped out on me again; this time to a point where i can’t even use it. i’m hopefully buying a new one this weekend so things will be back to normal then! take care everyone!
