It's a miracle! I have PC time during the day! I have been feeling like the IP vampire lately - only jumping on in early wee morning and late night hours!!!

There is a woman who is due in 5 weeks in my Bodypump class that I am eyeing and seeing how she's made adjustments (incline bench for chest & tri). I use dumbbells for biceps and do the hammer curl/half curl+twist option - definitely worked different muscles than just doing the bar for lifts.
I had been mixing in a bootcamp style class that I am dropping for exclusive Bodypump now, it's more stable and a class I can keep up with throughout the pregnancy. There is no way I could have maintained the jumping around, burpees, instability moves.

OMG - had to flex that muscle today, it was maybe 20 minutes before I was leaving to pick up my son and I started nibbling on a baby Butterfinger in the lab (thought "just one" wouldn't hurt - I was starting to 'feel it'). I decided I could wait for something healthy at home so I spit it out & threw out the rest!

Love me some zucchini shreds! I use a box grater and squeeze out excess water in paper towels. I've also mixed/sauteed them with chocolate spread & WF apple butter before adding to whatever item (muffin, pancake, etc).
