WORKOUTS:
My workouts have been awesome! This past week was all about the strength training sessions. Walking was my only form of cardio this past week, which actually felt kinda nice for a change! I am hoping this next week to do more cardio and less strength training.
THURSDAY 1-hour Group Power strength training practice workout
FRIDAY 30-minute walk with cooper (OFF DAY)
SATURDAY 1-hour Group Power strength training practice workout
SUNDAY 30-minute walk with cooper (OFF DAY)
MONDAY 1-hour Group Power strength training practice workout
TUESDAY Taught 1 hour boot camp class
WEDNESDAY 20 minutes light cardio, 1/2 practice session for Group Power
SYMPTOMS: I was a little more tired this past weekend, but I think that was from my workouts and also from being so productive around the house. HEARTBURN, only once and it is from my attempt to eat mexican flavored chicken tacos. I immediately stopped once I had pain in my chest.
25 weeks and 2 days, belly is growing!
25 weeks + 2 da
FOOD AVERSIONS: Mexican food/flavors. I cooked up some ground chicken tacos… Couldn’t eat them! I attempted to eat 1/2 taco and it just made me feel sick. I stuck with some rice and cheese instead!
FOOD CRAVINGS: I had an awesome craving this weekend… PUMPKIN! It didn’t really matter what form of pumpkin it was but I wanted it. Pumpkin coffee, homemade healthy pumpkin cookies, Kashi Pumpkin spice granola bars! I can’t get enough. Think I am ready for fall??
SLEEP: Sleep has been great. I sleep a solid 7 hours + each night.
MATERNITY CLOTHES: I bought another maternity dress, it is dark red and I can’t wait to wear it.
STRETCH MARKS: None!
DO I MISS ANYTHING: not really, maybe box jumps? JK
MOVEMENT: This girl is a mover, but I like it. Except when I want to go to sleep.
BABY ITEMS PURCHASED: We purchased a dresser this past weekend. The baby’s room is starting to come together!
WEDDING RINGS ON or OFF: ON
I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO: Filming my group power workout! I am also looking forward to the fall, not just because of the pumpkin recipes but also for the slightly breezier weather!

Hi Kelly! I just found your blog and wanted to say hi. I’m also pregnant (28 weeks) and doing my best to keep up with my workouts. It’s made such a difference so far in my energy levels and not experiencing some of the nasty pregnancy side effects.
I’m also obsessed with Cooper! I have a Golden named Remy and hope she doesn’t mind sharing the spotlight soon with her little brother.

Hi Heather!!
I agree about the workouts and feeling energized. I have no complaints so far, and I hope to keep exercising throughout the rest of my pregnancy.
Congrats on your pregnancy, you look great
Remy is beautiful! I was checking out your blog and I noticed your husband working in a lab. My husband is a science guy and works in a lab too!! We have so much in common.
