Workout Updates:

I've done a fair amount of exercise but not enough running. Even though I'm technically in the 2nd trimester, I have yet to experience any more energy. If anything- I've been MORE tired the past few days!

Oh well, take it for what it is.

I've done yoga...














Walks in the park on work breaks...



And free weights in the backyard...



And as you can see, I've been learning how to take pictures of my activities!!


Now, it's off to Chuys to celebrate a co-worker moving on!! 

Have I mentioned I have not been eating well?!

May?!

5-1-17 Holy guacamole, it's May!! How is this possible. Baby Update: Tomorrow will be 18 weeks! Also, I think I felt the baby move this morning! *it felt like gas, but very different* I'm still fitting into nearly everything I own but prefer to wear good ole' elastic when I can! Workout Update: I counted in my planner 18 days out of 30 in April, that I worked out. Many of the workouts were way less strenuous than I would have counted before, such as playing 9 holes of golf, taking a lunch time walk, etc. Overall I am pleased with how much I did, especially when I felt sluggish most of the time. This month I want to increase how many times a week I do weights (at least 2 for starts!!). I'd also like to swim about 2x a week. The extra day needs to be cardio! In random news, I'm playing with the idea of starting a sensory necklace/jewlery/toys online shop. I would sell chewy necklaces to mothers with teething babies, pacifier chains, chewy toys and...

30 Minute Full Body Workout

5/2/17 I had a long break from work today so I managed to come home, do a few things around the house and knock out a 30 minute full body workout in the backyard! Squats x 10 Weighted Side Leans x15      ------ Repeat x3 Bicep Curls x15 Deadlifts x15 Weighted Overhead Pulls x10  ------ Repeat x3 Tricep Kickbacks x12 Lunges, each leg x10 Modified Woodchoppers x10  -------Repeat x3 Skull Krushers x12 It's amazing how small things wear me out! I had to hold on to our patio furniture to do the lunges! I took frequent water breaks and made sure I was out of the sun. I also took a 30 minute walk on my lunch break along the Trinity River which was great in helping me get all my steps in today!

Ragnar Texas Recap!

4-10-17 Y'all may faintly remember that I did the Texas Ragnar; running from Batrop to Luckenbach with 11 other women in a single van. Van trip down We stayed the night in a roach-coach in Bastrop and while I slept like a log, 2 of the girls in our group did not sleep a second. Something about me having to kill roaches in the room really freaks some people out. That 4am wake up call came early. Our start time was at 5:45am, but naturally we had to be there an hour before hand to get "prepped" and to hear the safety stuff. I was runner #2 *heh*, so I received the slap bracelet (baton) around 6:30am and took off on my first leg.  Leg 1: 4.20 miles Actual distance/time: 4.5 miles in 48 minutes (10:38 pace) It was beautiful and now I wish I'd taken a few photos. I ran as the sun was coming up and through fields of wild flowers. There was mist covering the pastures and scenic bridges and cattle abounding.   I was fine with this because I star...
