Re: Fit Mama Monday Aug 13
I don't have a goal of healthy eating, I do IIFYM (if it fits your macros), so if it fits within my daily carb, fat and protein goals and I want it, I eat it. I haven't been counting macros very consistently though, so... overall I have really high metabolism and I am craving fresh things, so I am not overly concerned.
Any workout/healthy eating questions for the group?
Nope! Keep grinding ladies.
It's been better. The combo of DH being out of town and me being so tired has not been good for my diet.
Any workout/healthy eating questions for the group? Nope.
What are you doing? Making any modifications? Managed 2 short walks and one longer one last week. Aiming for 4-5 walks and 2-3 yoga “classes.” Already dropped to walking from jogging, although I seriously miss jogging!
How's the healthy eating going? Not so hot... any time I try and eat/snack a little healthier (aka less carbs) I end up getting sick. Stupid ms...
Any workout/healthy eating questions for the group? Just ready to be done with ms so I feel more like myself and can eat healthier!
I’m just getting on it. Last week was the first time I felt well enough to workout at all: 1 visit to the gym, 1 walk uphill in my neighborhood, a 3-mile beach walk, and some swimming today. That’s 4 days compared to zero days in the past, lol.
Still need to eat whatever sounds good until this morning sickness eases up. Lots of fruits & salads, but also lots of carbs in evenings.
Any workout/healthy eating questions for the group? Nope. I know what to do, just have to do it. Second tri will be easier.
Any workout/healthy eating questions for the group? I am wondering if anyone can recommend a good maternity support belt for exercise? I had to stop running during my first pregnancy around 7.5 months, and I think I could have done better if I wore a support.
I like to be active, but don’t necessarily like the gym or running or regular workouts. I prefer playing sports or working out for a purpose other than just getting fit.
I’m walking 30-40 minutes everyday! Audible has made this an enjoyable experience for me.
Not that great, every time I try to add something healthy to my diet, I don’t like it. Like my kale salad last week.

How do you all feel about biking while pregnant?
I should be more on it this week now that I had a good US and am not an anxious ball of nerves.
Better since I actually meal prepped this week. It seems like my cooking smell aversion is subsiding, which MH and I are very thankful for.
Any workout/healthy eating questions for the group?
Nothing I can think of.
@jesiannv biking, especially stationary biking, is great for steady state exercise when pregnant. As the months go on, I personally will stick to stationary biking due to the change in my center of gravity and the fall risk.
Who's still on the workout grind this week? I got four solid workouts in and one night of sand volleyball (coed league with hubs). Our team went out for tacos and margs after the game... OMGGGG the jealousy was strong looking at all of the tequila on the rocks. At least I got me some tacos and guac!
What are you doing? Making any modifications? Mostly strength training. BOD. Lots of walks with my toddler and dog. Just some modifications on ab work.
How's the healthy eating going? NOOOOOOOT the greatest. Since around 6 weeks, carbs have been my wingman. If I wasn’t working out consistently I surely would’ve gained some serious lbs by now!!! Getting better though as my MS is weening a bit.
Any workout/healthy eating questions for the group? Any intel on some sweet maternity workout pants?
Running and some weightlifting.
It’s getting worse. All I want is salt and carbs.

How are you figuring out what’s too much? I’ll feel fine during a jog but afterwords feel a little nauseous for a couple minutes and typically in the evening have more RLP.
@s@Shelbyville30 old navy maternity compression capris! Hated the shorts they had but loved the capris. They rotate sales so you can get them 40% off a lot.
@m@maggiemadeit no, I tried a couple during my first pregnancy and didn’t find anything I loved. I saw a whole shirt/tank that I’m thinking of trying or maybe the kinesiology tape.
What are you doing? Making any modifications? OTF 5x. This past week we hosted my parents and I attended a wedding so very happy I was still able to hit my workout goals. I’ve modified my running speeds on the treads because I tend to lose my breath faster than usual, but otherwise have stayed the same.
How's the healthy eating going? This could use improvement. With my birthday, guests, and nausea, I’m having trouble sticking with a consistent, healthy diet.
Any workout/healthy eating questions for the group? Any suggestions on pre or post workout snacks that you can stomach despite MS?
@buckeyenut05 love having a fellow OTFer here! Great work and keep burning!
Mainly walking. I have my Apple Watch app set to make sure I get in my steps / miles a day. Once I get off progesterone shots and estrogen, I'm hoping to have a little more energy.
Overall I eat pretty healthy. I do splurge and have guilty pleasures like pizza when the urge hits. If I don't, I'll obsess over it. With the baby & wedding showers lately...seems to be a lot of temptations!
@coffeeandcupcakes I asked my doctor what she suggested. She said, as long as you can take normally during workouts, then it's fine to do. Just nothing more than you usually do. But since you feel fine during, maybe trying to walk at the very end may help just get your heart rate, etc back down so not as nauseas. Then again, it's pregnancy, so you may have nausea any time you workout.

@beachbaby0523 - I snack on Belvita breakfast biscuits pre-workout. They do have some whole grains, with a yogurt creme in the middle, but the biscuit part is a little more carb-y and it seems to sit well, even during a more intense cardio workout.
