12 1/2 weeks pregnant
I woke up...and get this...I didn't dry heave in the sink. Oh, glorious morning! The lack of my routine demoralizing episodes inspired me to hit the gym with a vengeance!
5 minute crossfit warm up
30 minutes on the elliptical machine keeping heart rate around 130-145
30 minutes of weights: leg curls and pull ups and dips and calf raises and more!
Followed by a WEIRD craving of peanut butter on celery (on celery, I tell you, that's not me).
As if I needed more evidence my body is occupied by another: I made chicken noodle soup for family dinner last night. I guess that's only odd since I've been a vegetarian for, oh, a decade.
My husband and I eat dessert every night, but since I've been pregnant, I can't really tolerate sweet. What have I wanted instead? PROTEIN!!! I've been eating turkey sandwiches and chicken egg rolls like they are going out of style. Making a meat dish for dinner last night was like code to my husband giving him permission to suggest other meat meals for me.
He went in low & dirty, too. He suggested we should have the California Pizza Kitchen BBQ Chicken pizza tonight. He had me at California.
