pregnant yogi

Alot of you might know that I claim to be a yogi.  Not one of those diehard, tree huggin’, vegan type yogi’s by any means.  Just a simple person that enjoys doing yoga on a semi-regular basis.  The trouble with me and my yoga practice is that we don’t meet often enough.  I start out on my yoga routine for a couple days and then quickly fade away into being a lazy couch potatoe.  No matter how I start out I quickly crash and burn.

I love the idea of keeping up my yoga practice into my pregnancy but I have a feeling that once I get really big and round that I’ll lose interest and stop doing it all together.  What can I do to stay motivated?  I don’t want to crash and burn this time.  I feel that if I do keep it up throughout my pregnancy that it won’t be as hard to get the pregnancy weight off once I’ve given birth like it did with my first child.

Lets face it, any physical activity outside is out of the question just because it is too cold!  Yoga just fits me.  Its easy, I always see results, and it releases all of my built up tensions.

Hopefully writing this post will be my motivation.  Besides if I go through this holiday season with no excersise at all, I’m going to gain 20 lbs.  Ok, everyone wish me luck.  And feel free to check up on me.  Just ask me if if I’m doing my yoga.

*btw, I did 30 mins of yoga this morning.  planning on doing another hour and a half.
