I run first thing in the morning so whatever I have on I go with. I run enough I'm proud of my butt and I'm fast enough I doubt it's enough time to discern panty lines. Race day in another story though.

You can continue with most exercise programs but you should not start anything new besides things like walking or gentle yoga. Many people don't gain weight in the first couple of months.
