Report on Saturday's weigh-in

Well, it was kind of an iffy week, but I pulled through it with a 2-pound loss. Yay!

I guess I haven't told you, yet, why I started WW. We're trying to conceive and last month when I found out I wasn't pregnant I was super depressed. I talked to Dean and said I needed to be able to focus on something else that I have control over being successful at. So I decided to try WW (again); thankfully, he was on board. He's always on board with goals that I have. I have at least another week till I could possibly find out that I am expecting, so I am going to try to keep on. At least with every month I am not pregnant, I can look at it as an opportunity to lose a few more pounds. And another thing I look forward to is the possibility of running another triathlon this year (if I am not pregnant by May, then I'm good to go).

Last year, I ran Triathamom. It was one of the hardest, best, most rewarding things I've done. And I want to do another one. The other lady in the photo (in blue) is a friend of mine who also ran her first tri. She blogged about it here.

So, Saturday I did my normal routine and worked VERY hard at my step class to sweat off something more. It's a good thing I did. And as far as other working out goes, Zumba has been my go-to class during the week, mostly because it fits so well into my schedule right now. I know I am going to have to work in workouts more than 3x per week eventually. But I am starting slow for now and it seems to be working.

Valentine's Day is going to be my challenge this week. But Dean and I aren't doing our V-day dinner (or possibly lunch in our case) till Saturday.... after weigh-in. So I just might be able to have a couple of those chocolates he'll be giving me. :)

Honestly, if you're an active mom I think 3 times/week is fine. Don't stress.
Also, eating healthy while pregnant is one of the best things you can do for your baby.
WTG Christine! Nice job!
