Baby Bump

Hey Everyone!

Whoa, I am such a bad blogger!  It's been a long time...

So, I'm PREGNANT!  Yaaay!
I wanted to start blogging again to keep myself accountable to TRYING to be healthy.  A few of my friends in the social media world (Jess Smith is ah-mazing) have really inspired me, so I thought, "Why not?"

Here's where I started having an issue...during my first trimester I.WAS.STARVING.ALL.THE.TIME!  So, I ate whatever I wanted!  Bad idea.  I've gained a lot of weight already and waaaay more than all my little pregnancy apps tell me I should have gained by now.  They pop up on my phone saying, "you may have gained 10-12 pounds by now" and I just wish I could punch it in the face.  

So, friends I hope you can help me stay motivated to eat right and exercise even through pregnancy.  I need to figure it out now so that I can keep going and be a healthy mama to little Finnigan.  I want to raise him in an environment where movement and healthy foods are the norm.

Here are my victories for today (even though it's still early)-I got my butt out of bed and walked 3 miles this morning!  I love that Leslie Sansone.  Even if I did only get out of bed because I couldn't sleep anyway...it's a good start!  I had oatmeal, strawberries and tea for breakfast and I have lots of healthy food packed for the week.

The goal is:
1.To walk at least 4 times (including today) between now and next Tuesday.
2. To track ALL my food in the myfitnesspal app on my phone.

Check back to make sure I'm making my goals!
