So I'll be entering my 2nd trimester soon, and I've been too afraid to workout. I'm definitely hungrier lately, but nothing out of control. I've not been snacking and haven't been eating sweets nearly as much as I did before my pregnancy - I just haven't had those cravings. I'm mostly craving off things like pizza lunchables and spaghettios LOL! It's weird.
Anywho... Before getting pregnant I worked out a few times a week. Usually a few miles walking and two visits in the gym for elliptical work and circuit training (I go to Planet Fitness and they have a 30 minute circuit). Are there any gym workouts that I should completely avoid as far as machines go? And should I restrict weights (I don't lift anything heavy in the gym unless it's on a leg press)
I see some people say it's all dangerous, and then I see some pregnant women doing ALOT more than what I've ever done in the gym with success. It's all very confusing.
