Sorry forgot to add: congrats! Sorry to hear about your previous lossless but it's so exciting that things are going well for you and your little nugget now! x

Andrea Orbeck has a great pregnancy workout DVD. Her workouts are challenging but definitely adapted for expectant mothers (like what you describe above).

Thanks everyone for your advice... too kind. A lot learned and now time to churn out some numbers!! Almost dinner time so bring on the calories!!! ;-)

Thank you!

Sijomial, sorry I should have clarified. I wanted to know my BMR as a basis for then figuring out my daily maintenance requirements. Not that I thought that would be all I needed. Thank you for all your advice though- I'll look into what you suggested :)

Thanks TT. I'll look into my TDEE. x

Hey! I'm doing a masters in psych at the moment and love running and yoga too. I'm not a mom yet but we're trying to start a family now. I'd really like to make some more friends on here that I mesh with for motivation! I'll add you. x

Thanks everyone for all the information. Im gonna use it to make a routine once I'm back home! xx

Thanks. That gives me hope. I did a one Rep max today to see where I was on the assisted pu machine and got all the way to 36lbs! So I'm further on my way than I thought.

Lizette, that's awesome. Thanks for your experience and the advice. Good luck with the resistance bands; I'm thinking of trying those out too. My husbands got iron gym so might use that. x

Hey there! I'm in maintenance mode now but I'm new too and would love to meet people to stay on track. Friend me if you want! x

Thanks pent! x

Thanks vegasfit. Those are some great ideas for when I get back home.

I know it's a bit cheesy but I always like the analogue of getting a flat tire... when that happens u get out and fix it, you don't then go out and slash the other three. ;-) What are your goals?

Thanks for the replies. I'll have to look into setting up a new routine at home... I've been traveling and won't have access to the same gym when I get back. Hopefully I'm strong enough to do negatives now- before they were just me jumping and flopping down. haha Does anyone think using resistance bands is a good…

Hi there! I'm new too. How has it been going the past few weeks?

Thanks susanayt97! I feel like I need that extra little bit of support and advice to finish reaching my goals. I'm currently at my goal weight but need help with getting more definition and strength (like finally doing a pull-up!)
