Pregnoid training day 3

I had to skip my Tuesday training session due to inclement weather and someone scheduling a 4 hour meeting during that time! 4 hours??? what the hell do we have to talk about for 4 whole hours?

Today I did my skipped work out, and rescheduled today's work out for Saturday morning. Today's work out was awesome. We did legs and abs. We added a little more weight to the leg press and did 2 sets of 20 instead of 2 sets of 12. Then we did quds and hamstrings, and some lunges with 2 10lb weights, and then the roman chair for 2 sets of 20 reps straigt up, and 2 sets of 20 side to side, followed by the crunch machine, where I did 2 sets of 20 and held for 10 seconds half way through. Then Chris instructed 20 mins of cardio, but I did 30 so I could have a chocolate grahm cracker cookie at lunch :-)

Today was one of those work outs where you still feel it hours afterwards, mostly in my lungs. It almost feels like it used to when I'd do a good long run. I like it.

In pregnancy news, the acne seems to be under control now. I have been using a combination of Proactive Solution, and Arbonne's RE9 line. My skin seems to be getting back to normal. I'm also happy to report that I can still fit into my lucky jeans. I attribute this to my workout routine. Without it, I would be a total whale by now. No question. So anybody who thinks you can eat whatever you want and don't have to work out becuase you're pregnant... take note. You can't, and you shouldn't.

My hair is doing something funky now. I have aquired a cowlick on the front left. Today, Chris couldn't stop staring at it during our work out... until I told him that it was one of my horns trying to show itself ;-) I'll take a picture of my baby gut soon so you can all see it for yourself.

And in family news, the web cam I got my parents for xmas is awesome! I love that I can now see them whenever I want. It feels like they're not so far away. It's nice to know they're just a click away now. I also found Tiff on Skype, and my uncles Derek, Norman and Terry. How cool is that? I had a chat with uncle Derek on Tuesday. I haven't spoken to him since new years about 4 years ago!
