Feel like I just walked a marathon...at Wal-Mart!

DH has taken over most of the cooking/cleaning/etc. as he gets ready to be a SAHD (and I'll work). So, he's been grocery shopping for the past few months (also because I move very slowly now and he hates to creep through the store). Well, that's been great on our pocketbook, but the cabinets are sure getting bare! So, I mentioned to him that we needed to start stocking up on some things for right after LO arrives. I went with him to get groceries today, to show him the kinds of things we need to stock up on over the next two months.

Anyway, after an hour at Wal-Mart, I feel like I've walked a marathon. I came home and collapsed! It's been hard to breathe today (feet in lung space), so maybe that influenced the workout also. But, I never thought I'd say grocery shopping was a workout!!! Wow will I have a long road ahead of me when LO is born.

Agreed, my exercise today will be a post-work trip to Target. I'm tired already.

Lucky you for having a DH that will do the shopping!  I just went shopping yesterday, and it knocked. me. out.  Good for you for going and doing it, though!!

I've felt the same way the past couple times we went grocery shopping (and at Walmart too)  I actually have to hold onto DH, I get light headed and very weak.  Not sure why it happened at those particular times as well as the couple times we've been to Lowes.
