16 week belly pic!

The belly is coming! I have put on 4lbs in 16 weeks so not bad at all....I REFUSE to get as big as last time!

So so hungry!

This week I have been SO hungry like ALL.THE.TIME! I am sure it is just Ibble growing and my body telling me to eat, which I am. I am trying not to go for carbs carbs carbs all the time but mixing it up with proteins (light cheeses, nuts, peanut butter etc), fruits and veggies. Trying....I seem to have a really weak spot for cadbury's wunderbars this pregnancy and there are a few wrappers in my bin!

Exercise...I have been on a couple of runs and a bike a ride but this week I worked 3 days and my work is pretty physical (I am an Equine Therapist and lift and manipulate a horse's legs etc)

I will post some more belly pics tomorrow.

Happy Blitzing!

Second Trimester!

Hi Peeps! So I have been a little lax in updating my blog but I HAVE been working out and eating healthily for this baby.

I have to admit I am struggling to eat LOADS of calories but I chatted with my doctor and he is happy so I am happy. I am eating around 1,600 to 1,800 cals a day (probably nearer 1,600) and working out 3 or 4 times a week.

My work outs are a 20/30minute run and then 20 mins of yoga and stretching. It is REALLY important to warm up and cool down when you are pregnant as there is additional strain on you joints. A 40/60min bike ride to the beach, long walks, and yoga sessions. I am also still doing some weight and strength training.

This is me in the second trimester! I can see a little bump!
