I'm not a runner and I doubt I ever will be. I run for a mile, walk a bit, and run for another mile, and walk a bit.. And I'll do that for an entire half-marathon or the running portion of an Olympic-distance triathlon. But I'm not a runner. Even if I go out and use my legs to cover a ten mile or fifteen mile distance.…

Make sure you are eating enough food. You need to eat more food to properly fuel your body for the training, but still not eat so much that you're not gaining. Keep your exercise consistent.

And I'm this first time mother's older sister. I'm pregnant with my third, 22w in. I'm overweight and striving for 11-20 pounds gain. I'm currently at 10 pounds. :) I'm working hard with Christa to help her find foods that taste good to that pregnant brain, are filling, and still nutritious for her and baby!

I'm short on motivation (it's just not a strength), but here are some practical tidbits that are easier said then done: You want to eat healthier and be thinner (according to your profile) - and this can be done regardless of if you are recovering from surgery! Diet is more important than exercise. You don't have to let…
