Re: Fit Bodies, Fit Minds...Friday check in
I only went to the gym once this week. It's so hard with working nights and 12 hr shifts to get to the gym during the days I work.
I'm thinking about starting Weight Watchers (again) tomorrow. Maybe that will help me focus on something else. But, Sunday is my birthday, so I will be eating bad this weekend. Maybe Weight Watchers should wait
I'm having a rough couple of days, as I'm sure a lot of us are with Christmas coming up. We're having dinner with my good friend and her DH tomorrow and 2 other couples. It's our annual friend Christmas get together. She is due the same exact day as I was. I have been doing a good job of avoiding her...I know she realizes it and is very sympathetic to me...but it makes me sad that I am doing that. It's hard seeing her cute round belly while mine is flabby. A lot of anxiety is building up thinking about having dinner with her and hanging out with everyone. I'm scared I'm going to start crying in front of everyone.

Great idea!!!!!!!
I had my FIRST post-m/c run yesterday (I'm a huge runner). It was AMAZING and I felt so great (physically and mentally) afterward......HOWEVER my bleeding started back up the next morning (ugh). I'm trying to look at it optimistically that my running is shaking out all the leftover gunk from my m/c.
As far as eating, well........
I decided I'm not even THINKING about healthy eating until after Christmas.

That sounds like a great idea!
I have not excercised once since my m/c and I've been eating totally unhealthy!!
It's annoying b/c I was eating so well while I was pregnant. Now that I'm not it's almost like my excuse to eat whatever I want! I'd like to start getting back into healthier eating and exercising habits since we're going to TTC again after AF comes in January. Ugh...I need motivation!!!
Yeah, I've only been going for power walks every other day, even though I planned on going daily. Ooops.
My eating isn't too bad, but the foods I choose are the worst. My portions are getting back under control, mostly, but I'm still eating crap stuff. Bleh.
Going to try to shoot for daily exercise for now, and focus on diet after I get that under way, I think. Not sure if that's the way to do it, but I'm open to change, too.
This was the first time since July that my abs felt tight!
I also went to the gym four times this week (in addition to some cardio done at home
)
Hi I'm new to this all and would love support in getting healthy again after a miscarriage. If this is the wrong board, please let me know, and I'll take my post off.
I lost a baby girl on December 12th. I was 18 weeks, 4 days. It was the most horrible thing I've ever experienced, and am still an emotional roller coaster.
I am trying to exercise again everyday and eat right, but right now my energy levels are a roller coaster (just like my emotions), and when I feel down, all I want is food to comfort me, which tugs at my emotions even more.
Before I got pregnant I joined Weight Watchers and lost 40 pounds, but I have no idea how to start this back again, especially since I'm having a very hard time with the emotional eating. I just want to be successful at this, and not have it be one more thing to get me down. I already feel like I failed when I lost my baby (even though everyone is telling me it isn't my fault), and want getting healthy to be positive. I need positive in my life right now!
Hope my next post will be more positive.
