Exercise Entry #5

Ok, so there has been a little sporadic amidst the exercising of late.  Some mornings (and days) it was raining which squashed my morning run.  Others it was raining in the evening or I needed to fulfill my role as "Mom".  Some, I was just plain exhausted.  I have continued running in the morning as often as I can.  This week I have gone every morning but this morning due to rain - it was in the 60's already just after 7 am, but I just couldn't get past the wind and rain. =(   Another excuse has crawled in as well..... I'm PREGNANT!!  Yes, that can put a damper on a quest for losing weight like I have.  However, it can also be pretty driving as well.  Since I had already started running before I found out I was pregnant, I should be able to continue.  I will most likely not add more distance to the run, but just continue to help my body be accustomed to the distance.  I still use my bike at home too.   Getting a schedule for that is a little more of a challenge.   The hubby has a dental surgery appt tomorrow so his day of work will start much earlier - squashing my chance at a run.  I guess tomorrow morning will find me on my bike.  Now if I could only read a book while on the bike, or blog, or check out sales while on the bike, I would be a very fit soul indeed!  

The nausea has set in as well.  This morning my stomach wasn't up for much - I think a yogurt was all it could take without WANTING to chuck it.  So far, I have been able to keep it all down.... and it seems it is only in the morning as well.  Maybe if we could just get it to cooperate with my striving for a healthy diet.  Love the healthy stuff, chuck the not-so-healthy?!   Eh, I can wish can't I??

That is awesome! I'm pregnant too. We always seem to have babies around the same time. When are you due? I am 17 weeks this week. I wasn't as smart as you in keeping up with an exercise routine, so now that I'm not sick anymore I have got to start slowly doing some things. Miss you!!
