Fitness and Nutrition Goals for the week?

I take a ballet class once a week (great way to get strong and flexible!), and I go for long walks every other day.

How did you do with your goals last week?

I missed one walk. I'll get it next time!

If nausea or exhaustion has hit you, how are you coping to stay on track fitness-wise?
I have my husband being my cheer leader. He goes with me to my class and on my walks so I'm not alone. Accountability is everything!

How do you plan to stay on track through the holidays?
I'm sure I can get family members to go with me on my walks.

GTKY: what do you listen to or watch while exercising?
I am either listening to my instructor at ballet class, or talking with whoever is walking with me. I'm not really big on watching tv or listening to music when I exercise.

Fitness and Nutrition Goals for the week? To walk my dog every day, maybe even twice and not eat all the christmas goodies!

How did you do with your goals last week? I take my dog on a walk every morning usually, today was far too cold out to go, 3 degrees at 7 am (with out windchill) and I slept through my alarm on wednesday . . .

If nausea or exhaustion has hit you, how are you coping to stay on track fitness-wise? I usually run, but with boob soreness, thats not happening too well, so I have been walking my dog. My stomach feels weird most days now, and eating a lot isnt happening, so thats been helping.

How do you plan to stay on track through the holidays? Well if my stomach says this way, I wont be eating too much anyway. Plus with this no drinking thing, the calories will be much easier to handle

GTKY: what do you listen to or watch while exercising? Netfilx. I usually choose a show that is about 20 to 30 minutes long, and use that as my workout timer.

Fitness and Nutrition Goals for the week?
To get longer runs in. Nutrition, eat more fruits/vegetables, keep up with meal plan/prep. Dh has lost almost 40 pounds since April and is worried about gaining it all back with this pregnancy.

How did you do with your goals last week? I don't remember my goals...

If nausea or exhaustion has hit you, how are you coping to stay on track fitness-wise? My exhaustion is better this week, or I just have gotten used to it. I have been better at going at a slower pace and not letting my pace define my runs.

How do you plan to stay on track through the holidays?
We are king on a trip between Christmas and nye and I made sure the hotel has a fitness center.

GTKY: what do you listen to or watch while exercising?
Pandora - New Found Glory station or ANother Mother Runner podcasts

Fitness and Nutrition Goals for the week? Crossfit 5x/week

How did you do with your goals last week? Still feeling well, so I was able to go M-F this past week.

If nausea or exhaustion has hit you, how are you coping to stay on track fitness-wise? I haven't had much nausea yet, but I probably wouldn't go to class and walk instead. Same with exhaustion. I haven't been sleeping well, so I've backed off on my weightlifting to 60-80% (this is a good idea while not pregnant as well).

How do you plan to stay on track through the holidays? I'm extremely careful with my diet, and my appetite is actually not that great right now. I'm hoping I can fight any cravings that may show up. But typically this is not a problem for me.

GTKY: what do you listen to or watch while exercising? Whatever they're playing at the gym!

akwr · December 2016

Fitness and Nutrition Goals for the week? Workout at least 5 times, get more veg in

How did you do with your goals last week? I did start working out more so that's a win. Have been eating ... Okay. I don't think I'm eating too much but I need more of the good stuff.

If nausea or exhaustion has hit you, how are you coping to stay on track fitness-wise? I've been feeling fatigue on and off, and I let myself have one night off when I was super done. But got back on the next day.

How do you plan to stay on track through the holidays?
Last year I lost 40lbs and part of that was over the holidays, so I know I can be healthy during this time. I think the biggest thing I learned is to not go crazy on any one thing.. because it's not the first nor will it probably be the last time I ever taste it haha. Working out will be hard because we're travelling, but I'm going to do what I can.

GTKY: what do you listen to or watch while exercising? Sometimes just the music on the DVD I'm doing, but lately I've been turning the workout music off and turning on my workout Spotify playlist (Led Zeppelin, Dr Dog, Cage The Elephant, Fly Golden Eagle, and other upbeat favs).

Fitness and Nutrition Goals for the week?
keeping my carbs low, water high and walking 2miles a day

How did you do with your goals last week?
great!

If nausea or exhaustion has hit you, how are you coping to stay on track fitness-wise?
water! Just power through it. carbs help with nausea but I use cool things and take deep breaths instead. If I can catch a short nap I do it.

How do you plan to stay on track through the holidays?
just do it. If you have a goal you want enough you just make it happen. Having good support from your spouse helps!

GTKY: what do you listen to or watch while exercising?
I usually walk with DD1 so I talk to her lol

Fun thread!!

Fitness and Nutrition Goals for the week? Yoga before work at least 3 days but try for 5

How did you do with your goals last week? I did 4 week days and then yesterday!

If nausea or exhaustion has hit you, how are you coping to stay on track fitness-wise? No nausea. And I'm not tired til the evening so morning exercise is a must for me.

How do you plan to stay on track through the holidays? I'm choosing what is healthy for my baby to have, not what sounds delish. I'm very strict on what DS eats. No processed foods. No sugary treats. So I plan to just eat the same that I feed him for the most part.

GTKY: what do you listen to or watch while exercising? I do Jillian Micheals yoga currently. And I plan to switch to the Tracy Anderson pregnancy videos once I hit the third month.

I gained what I assume to be between 30 and 40 lbs last pregnancy. I didn't weigh in at all the entire process so that I wouldnt let it get to my head that I was "fat". I'm back to pre prego weight and I think this time I will track more closely but be sure not to obsess over the number on the scale.
