Or maybe after baby goes to sleep, enjoy a little "jon and kate +8" with kid in the basement and get in a little treadmill time. (of course, I have no idea when baby goes to bed or if this is feasible, but just an idea!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-85770937636527717142008-06-25T23:53:00.000-04:002008-06-25T23:53:00.000-04:00Amy,So true so true.

My stomach went from not pregs to full on popped out pregs as soon as the sperm hit the egg.<BR/><BR/><BR/>P.O.M.,<BR/>I'm on it. I worked out today... and really it is that 1st workout post break that is the hardest.

That's 10 days to get really intense on the workouts. 1.5 will fall off in less than 5 days fo sho.

I've been able to keep it there for 7 months so I think it is a reasonable range for me. Like Carrie I feel best one pound up from my bottom at 110. And I can't stay at that without regular exercise... so it's a good motivation.<BR/><BR/>Eurydice,<BR/>word... I know I could turn around and be 115 and then 120 by the end of July... not gonna happen.Mrs Furioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18082932653215907248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-54735901697882916272008-06-25T17:06:00.000-04:002008-06-25T17:06:00.000-04:00I've been on maintenance from WW since Sept and ha...I've been on maintenance from WW since Sept and have just crept above my range, too (2 pounds). Thanks for laying it out there...it helps so much with MY resolve to hear you talking about the same things! ashinmt: My range is 131-135. I feel great at about 132. I go with the four pound range because my weight can vary that much in the same day and I didn't want to make myself totally crazy. :-)carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03238862689732970406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-40971796654332233182008-06-25T15:28:00.000-04:002008-06-25T15:28:00.000-04:00it's so easy for 1.5 pounds to become more... you ...it's so easy for 1.5 pounds to become more... you are wise to tcb (take care of business) right away!eurydicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00715483493820879512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-60114725371853162282008-06-25T15:21:00.000-04:002008-06-25T15:21:00.000-04:00Mrs. F,You sound motivated as ever even with all t...Mrs. F,<BR/>You sound motivated as ever even with all thats on your mind. you will be back where you want to be in no time, YOU GO! <BR/>Now a question:<BR/>How much of a "maintenance range" do you give yourselves. I have been at my current weight (154) for a loong time it seems and would like to be a solid 148-150. Would that be my maintenance range? Or would the 154 be (because im comfy here :) ) my "absolutely dont go over" spot... Just wondering how much lee-way (sp) you all give yourselves?AshinMThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13366487138521956432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-64802240840405208122008-06-25T15:16:00.000-04:002008-06-25T15:16:00.000-04:00Good for you, like you said, if you don't get on i...Good for you, like you said, if you don't get on it at 1.5# it creeps up fast. Stress will do that to you... I just got back on my exercise routine now that all of the house projects are done (except the constant cleaning...) I really hope you guys get the house you want and have as little stress moving as possible. I still can't imagine finding a house so quick in a completely new place, you really are a badass ;)emmyjwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08081167445269878399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-5419947011278983702008-06-25T14:12:00.000-04:002008-06-25T14:12:00.000-04:00Sounds like a good plan.

So keep talking about exercise, because it's motivating me to stick to my 3-mile-a-day walk that I desperately need to keep my hormonal self on an even keel. You're exercising for three now.

Don't beat yourself up.<BR/><BR/>Once they pack your equipment up and the Mr. is gone, do you have a neighbor or friend that can help you out for an hour or two every other day?
