pregnant

jeriwall Posts: 13 Joined: 2003/01/28	2003/02/27, 09:32 AM Ok well I posted a message yesterday about not breastfeeding my 14 month old and gaining weight. Well I took a pregnancy test lastnight and found out that I am prego. AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I still want to continue my workout. Right now I do 30 mins of fast paced walking every other day and on the off days I do my ft exercise program. And plus I am on the 12 week ab's program so I will probably be dropping that. Does anyone know what how much of my workout I can still keep doing with out pushing myself to hard. JeriWall ---------------------------- JeriWall

I read on the wall of my gym that you can still do quite alot, as long as your never in a position where you could lose your balance and fall. so like, no running or owt, but you could use an ex. bike as much as you wanted. And no free weights, just machines. a healthier cardiovascular system beens a healthier baby. Katie xx -------------- My body only feels good when it burns!

jeriwall Posts: 13 Joined: 2003/01/28	2003/02/27, 05:22 PM Thanks everyone. Yeah I am going to be checking with my doc to what exercises I can continue. And I stopped taking the Xenadrine yesterday when I found out I was pregnant. I really want to stay fit durning this pregnancy because my last I was on bed rest for 6 months of it because I pulled a muscle in my back. So hopefully I will be able to continue my work out and stuff. Thanks for the reponses. JeriWall -------------- JeriWall

You can also continue light weight training but no ab exercices right now! Good luck to you!!! -------------- - Nina :o) Les Victoires éternelles sont celles du coeur.
