1) How did you do on last week's goals?
2) What are your goals this week?
3) Inspire Us! What's been your favourite healthy meal so far this pregnancy?
Also, I'm having an awful time remembering to start this thread each week. Is anyone interested in taking it over for me? I'm sorry I keep posting it so late.

Re: Healthy Habits Check In (03-05)
2) What are your goals this week? First I need to get over this cold. But my nausea seems to be reducing, so I'm going to try to avoid the sweets and carbs that I've mainly been surviving on.
3) Inspire Us! What's been your favourite healthy meal so far this pregnancy? A veggie wrap! A wrap with lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, red peppers, cheddar cheese, and a bit of light ranch dressing. It's helping me get my veggies and totally hitting the spot at lunchtime!
Terrible, I was traveling for work and only made it to hotel gym once. Next time I pack a bathing suit. I was on my feet most days so at least I wasn't sitting all day. I was so exhausted I was in bed by 9pm.
This also meant a lot of eating out. I tried to include a salad each dinner so I was getting something healthy.
2) What are your goals this week?
I have derby 2x and volleyball & soccer games so that will jump start me back into being active.
3) Inspire us! What has been your favorite healthy meal so far this pregnancy?
Salad with restaurant ranch dressing. I don't know how they make it, but even though it's so funny it's been making salads my go to thing. But I think I need to switch to packaged ranch at home to get it to taste the same.
I think anyone of us can start this each week, one of us just needs to remember
2) Run 4x and hit up at least one yoga or barre class.
3) I get pretty excited about making good salad dressings. Last week I made a cilantro lime cumin and a tahini citrus slaw-type sauce. Both good but the tahini one didn't save very well in the fridge, it got really thick.
Last week's goals went right out the window. I ran and lifted a few times but it was just a busy week and my energy was nonexistent.
this weeks goals for me are exercising 5x - 4 runs and 2 strength training days.
My go to meal has been cold rice/bean wraps - whole wheat tortillas with brown rice, beans, cilantro, avocado, and lots of salsa. I started craving it at week 5 and can't stop!!
2. This week I hope to swim once, and go for at least two runs. I'm not going to make food goals until I start feeling better.
3. DH made a seafood gumbo last night filled with shrimp, crab, and tons of veggies. I think that counts as healthy? It was delicious at least
@mountainmartha That wrap sounds amazing!

@mommac2017 my doctor said not to worry about weight gain, if you are already healthy & active and continue that trend. He's a little more forward thinking than most docs, but I agree if you stay on the healthy track your body will adapt as needed.
