Hello beautiful people!
Yes, that means ALL of you. Whether you see it, or feel it, or not, you all are beautiful to someone. (What's your secret?)
Sooooo.....still in the same boat as last time. Quick recap: Getting permanently laid off and am officially pregnant. How is that effecting my health? Well, I very much appreciate what I eat now. One day I love something, next day the thought sends me running for the bathroom. Most days, it's just me and my Saltine crackers. Not my favorite thing by any means, but if it keeps me from seeing my last snack, I'll eat it! And as a perk, I'm actually liking fruit over chocolate now!
And my overall health is becoming very much a concern. This is my 6th pregnancy. I am no longer a spring chicken. Pregnancy is hard on the body; especially for us old folks! And with a cut in income and insurance, maintaining (and improving) my health has become a serious concern. I spent a good portion of my last 2 pregnancies in physical therapy because I was in such bad shape that the stress of pregnancy on my body took a toll on me. I don't have that luxury this time. And I wouldn't mind skipping the pain either! So, stretching/walking/bodyweight exercises it is. And the sooner the better. Granted, my 2 younger ones make sure I don't sit around much, but with winter coming it becomes less likely I'm going to step outside willingly. I REALLY don't like the cold. Yuck! Thank you to whoever invented cheap gyms for those of us who like to exercise in human temperatures.
Now to find the time and energy to haul my butt to the gym. Not an easy thing to do when your body has a legit reason for saying go take a nap! I vaguely remember naps. I think. Maybe?!
Until I can form coherent thoughts again,
