    Hi guys! I'm a big SYSK fan and also heard about this on the chiggers episode. I'm a little embarrassed because my goals are actually quite different. I'm 5'4" and 134 lbs, and I'm 10 weeks pregnant so my goal is actually healthy weight gain. I also really want to watch my balance of nutrients (lots of protein, calcium, iron, folic acid, DHA etc) and I'm not super active so I need to push myself to get moving! I have two kids already and I'm exhausted so making time for exercise will be really tough. Any advice there would be much appreciated!

    Any other preggos out there in SYSK land?

    Hi haleyholland12! I have 7 month old twins now but I went through that while pregnant; I wasn't gaining much weight initially and was told to double my protein (I eat fish and eggs but otherwise vegan so had to start eating more of those). The app helped me keep track though I'm bad at remembering to log so often I used an old-school notebook and pen to see what my meals looked like. I also stayed very active, and even after I was deemed high risk I was allowed to walk and swim; if you like swimming it's a great workout while preggo!! Hope your pregnancy goes well, xoxo
