Blueridge-
I'm not sure how effective the Wii Fit is. I was pretty active before I got pg in another program called CrossFit. I would do Wii Fit one or two nights a week, just to get some form of exercise in -- I actually really started liking the yoga. And I'm a HULA HOOP lover! That one is a workout and will get your heart rate up. But I haven't tried any of the other ones.
I walked yesterday and I'm a bit sore today. I normally walk about 3 miles and yesterday I walked with a friend and we did about 5. I think I overdid it just a tad. I started bleeding yesterday pretty heavy and after the walk I was cramping so badly. Today's bleeding isn't so bad, so hopefully I'm on the downside.
I hope your bleeding stops soon. With my first m/c it all happened in a day. I woke up bleeding and about 8pm that night I passed everything. I only had light spotting for another day or two, so I think i was really lucky then.
Amanda, I'm so proud of you for getting your spirits up! And I think the treadmill is a great idea. I personally prefer to walk outside, but I do use ours sometimes and I can watch tv or whatever. And, if you're trying to lose weight, I strongly encourage South Beach. When I went to my RE in December, I was getting overweight as well. I am 5'4" and peaked about 175. He kept saying how good South Beach is, especially for people with PCOS and insulin resistance. So, right before New Year's I started it. The first few days were awful and I had a terrible headache coming off of the sugar I was addicted to. But after that I felt much better. I lost about 20 pounds and gained 5 back when i got pg. But it really makes a huge difference. It just started falling off -- I lost 12 lbs the first 2 weeks (the strictest part of the diet) and plateaued for almost a month, then the rest just fell off with diet and exercise.
So, i started back on it this week. I went back to Phase 1 to kickstart my body again. I truly feel it aided in my success last time, so it can't hurt. I'd love to lose another 15-20lbs.
Enough rambling for me. Hope you all have a good day.

But these things I plan won't happen right away.
Slowly, steadily, surely, the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled.
If it seems slow, be patient! For it will surely take place.
It will not be late by a single day. |
