After a busy week and little sleep early on in the week I managed to do some activity. I posted my workout goals for the week here. Let’s see how I did:
27 Weeks Pregnant:
Sunday – Fit MOM DVD and 10 minutes Prenatal Yoga.
Monday – Rest day. Went to be at 8pm (very little sleep the night before)
Tuesday – 30 minute walk at night
Wednesday – Rest Day
Thursday – Rest Day
Friday – Physio appointment for ligament pain I am having (again) during pregnancy – learned new ball exercises to do. Repeated again at home 10 – 15 minutes.
Saturday – 30 minute walk mid morning and ball exercises 10 – 15 minutes
All taped up!

What is “truck rotation”?
lol, whoops, should read “trunk” rotation 🙂 Trunk as in middle or core of your body, rotating your trunk while sitting on the exercise ball. You can rotate from left to right etc or rotate your trunk as in bending over to touch your toes (limiting while pregnant).
Ran 3 times this week after taking a long break from running. Felt so good to get back out there!
It’s good to take a break every so often, when you get back into running it makes it that much better.
Ate almost a whole chocolate pie at midnight 🙂
With my first pregnancy, I hate a whole box of Kraft Dinner – haven’t had any since! chocolate pie sounds good.
