NJfitmama's daily check in

I've decided that I want to start my own daily check-in thread. I'm currently 5 months pregnant, so I'm not trying to lose weight, but I'm really trying to not gain 65 pounds like I did with my daughter. I'm currently up 20 pounds, which isn't that great, but it's not as bad as before. I was doing no-s before I got pregnant, but then the first trimester was really hard for me to not snack all day to help with the nausea. Now, I'm feeling better, but I like fattening things and chocolate chip cookies!

Since yesterday was an S day, I'm going to start posting tonight what I ate for the day. Goal is to gain below 40 pounds this pregnancy and to stay active. I am currently working out 4 days/wee for about 45 minutes on the elliptical. With my daughter, I didn't work out at all and I had a 25 hour labor experience. Hoping for a better experience this time.
