I'm now 32 weeks and the 3rd trimester is already kicking my butt! I've had a large kidney stone stuck for over a month now. I'm worried I'll have to go in for another surgery to get it removed after the baby comes. Surgery with a new born.. oh my! I've also started having spurts of morning sickness and extreme fatigue lately so trying to stay on my fitness regimen has been difficult. Also I was on moderate bed rest for a week a couple weeks ago for a short cervix and contractions, so I have to take it very easy.
I try to workout for at least 15 minutes if I am able. Doing turbo fire, p90x, or body beast (all very modified). Before I was put on moderate bed rest I liked going to the gym and doing the elliptical and walking incline on the treadmill switching every 15 minutes for an hour.
I still try to eat every couple hours. My diet is not as strict as it used to be, considering when I'm nauseous the only thing I can make myself eat is cereal. I like to mix my bland healthy fiber filled cereal with the sugary cereal to add a little more nutrition. As soon as the nausea is gone, so is the unhealthy cereal. Some of my favorite snacks are greek or yoplait low cal yogurt, string cheese, granola bars, apple sauce, grapes, apples, or bananas. My favorite meal is a chicken ceasar salad. I found this amazing Ceasar Parmigiano yogurt dressing by bolthouse farms, with only 45 calories per 2 TBS. To make it even healthier and in my opinion tastier I squeezed a bunch of lemon juice into the bottle and shook it up. I add Lemon to everything now instead of salt- salads, chicken, fish, ect. It makes your buds salivate the same as salt does, enhancing the flavor.
What is your pregnancy fitness regimen like? What are some of your favorite healthy recipes?
Are you sure this dressing is safe to eat?
ReplyDeleteTo elaborate...the ranch dressing doesn't specifically say that its pasteurized...and it contains dairy and egg. This makes me nervous
