My Body Speaks!

Well I thought as I went into the cylcing room at the YMCA that I was going to workout in the same manner and intensity that I normally do...well I found out real quick that wasn't going to happen! Getting through just the warm-up I was already exhausted and could tell my heart rate was higher than it should be and by this time I was thinking "OY! How am I going to last through an hour of this!" Well I did but I definetly had to tone it down some and be truly focused on what my body was saying and it was saying that up and down in counts of 2 you will get dizzy so CUT IT OUT! I sweat already a ton but tonight I think I shed about 10lbs of water weight! I did survive the whole hour but by the end I had this weird pinch going on in my back that wouldn't go away and wound around to my lower abdomen until I stood up and let it relax...was like a cramp, so I just got up and stopped my workout about 3 minutes before she started cooling down. It was nice of her to check on me cause the day prior I actually told her I was pregnant and talked to her about cycling. She came over during the exercising and asked if I was ok and I just told her "yes but going up and down a million times will make a pregnant girl dizzy but I am good." Unfortunetly I think it might be time for me to sit in the back of the class instead of the front! I only sit in the front cause I can't see that far not cause I feel like I deserve to be there! ha!

So I have a feeling I am going to feel this tomorrow! I think instead of working out 6-7 days a week it is going to end but being 4-5 so my body can have a resting period. Kind of a bummer but baby is more important to me than over working my body and passing out on the gym floor of the local YMCA! That would not be cool!

PS I really wish I had a shirt that announced I was pregnant so all the "older" folk didn't wonder why they could out cycle me tonight! ;)
