First Timer

Here we are - 36 weeks pregnant and writing the first blog. This is going to be a crazy journey my friends - that I am sure of. Everything else - not so sure...

With 4 weeks left, I am anxious - for many things: meeting our new baby boy, changes in family dynamics, getting my body back to myself nevertheless to what it was before, enjoying a DRINK!!, and lastly getting back to running and exercise!

I am going to miss my almost nightly bowl of ice cream with crushed Heath bar pieces and of course the occasional Yours Truly Not-so Fries. But, to have my body back as my own - it's worth it!!

In addition to sharing my journey back to fitness and normalcy with two toddlers and a newborn, I will be offering tips or tricks or workout songs or anything to help motivate and focus. I welcome your thoughts and feedback on how I can help you achieve your fitness goals.

Strong Like Mom Tip: Find a BPA-free water bottle that works for you and use it! At least 8 cups (64 oz) of water a day!! Start slow and attach the water bottle to your hip.
