Re: Weekly Exercise Thread
Exercise Log: Wednesday - zumba for 30 minutes and then about a half hour on the elliptical and bike; Friday - about an hour combined of light weights, walking and elliptical; Sunday - went grocery shopping (yeah, I count that!) and pushed cart - about an hour; went on an approximately 30 minute walk in the neighborhood.
Rants/Raves: I am just proud that I did something this week because I have been pretty much out for a good while with sickness.
Goals for this week: I want to try to do a little something at least 3-4 times a week - even if it all it is is walking around the block. My body just isn't up for anything too much, but I figure that at least for now I can still (sort of) walk.
GTYK: How many of you are hoping to be in a bikini this summer?
Nope. Not even going to put the pressure on myself. I may wear one at my own pool in my backyard, but not in public.

Wed:ellptical 30 min

Rants/Raves: taking frequent breaks for my leg is a pain, but I'm managing it and working out better that way.
Goals for this week: keep up the work, but base is on lock down for the next two weeks so my tues/thurs is shot because the kid room doesn't have a treadmill
GTYK: How many of you are hoping to be in a bikini this summer?

Nice work ladies!
Monday: mommy/toddler yoga- 30 min of actual yoga for me
Tues: 35 min walk on treadmill
Wed: 20 min rt walk to park
Rants: ugh! Started feeling sick on Wed and it ended up being a stomach virus (the second one I've had this season), so that knocked me out for several days. Finally feeling back to normal today.
Also, I'm basically measuring full term so things are getting more difficult. It's hard to even get up off the couch or move in bed. Yoga today was a little more challenging than last week. But I'm still going to try to keep pushing forward.
Goals: 4-5 days of activity.
Ha! Since I'm having twins, I do not expect to be in a bikini this summer. I'll be grateful if my stomach doesn't stretch so much that I'm never in a bikini again. My goal is to be in one the following summer... And just survive this summer with two newborns and a toddler. We spent a ton of time at the pool last summer, so hopefully I can at least make it there.
