I can't say I've done anything drastically different this week, but after last week's 4-pound gain, I held back on the "goodies" and tried to eat more veggies and fruits. I also made more effort to be physically active. For instance, this weekend I walked outdoors quite a bit, which not only felt good (ahh, sunshine at last!) but also burned those extra calories.

So there you have it -- I lost 0.5 pound and stayed strong. That is a relief! Also, based on some of our dear readers' comments (particularly Andrea's), I looked into water aerobics classes at my local Y. I've decided to try the Monday-Wednesday-Friday classes after work. I'll still get home in time to hang with my girl and put her to bed. But it will also be a good no-impact workout and hopefully relieve some tension, too. Weekends, I'll do more of the walking.
Here's to a fit week for all of us!

You will love it! A good workout and relief on those sore, swollen hands and feet. If you enjoy it as much as I did, you'll look forward to it! Except for changing in and out of the wet swim suit!
Sounds fun! I was much better about working out with my first pregnancy (at least in the beginning) and I liked "The Lotte Birk Method" and "Bar Method" workouts. Its kind of a low stress yoga/pilates-ish workout. Pretty short, Goes by fast, no jiggling involved. I need to dig those videos out...
Sorry, Lotte *Berk*
Hope your program is still going great! So hard to lose weight but well worth it! Just wanted to give you Bar Method's address so you can order the DVD's if you like: http://www.barmethod.com/dvds/exercise-dvds.html
