“pinkidea ,gönderine yorum yaptı: Wins on food
And you should take your iron. So...”
– I know but I’m not very good with red meat, I eat it only only occasionally. So for iron intake, I eat chicken, beans, cereal and veggies rich in iron (i.e. spinach, broccoli, green pepper etc) which are enough to keep my levels stocked:) Türkçe anadilim.

Wins on food
I’m so proud of myself making the right food decisions for lunch today. There was this dish with aubergine that I’m totally in love with (it’s called Karnıyarık in Turkish) and I can eat it every day- sooo yummy. Instead I chose to eat oven baked chicken drumsticks (without the skin of course). Not because this aubergine dish wasn’t healthy or anything but I need to up my...

Crazy about.. Fruits!!
Short history: If I was ever crazy about a type of food, it was cakes, and ice-cream, and cupcakes too, and count in the tarts and of course chocolates and well all the like. And oooh you can’t believe how Turkish cuisine is a treasure for dessert-lovers!!
Ok I deal with hypoglycemia since 2005 and trying to eat them moderately, never before a meal and in smaller quantities. Meanwhile, I...

The life of a fitblr when 3 months pregnant
I recently realized pregnancy was not something I was informed much about in the past. I had a couple pregnant people around me but I had never paid attention to the details. My general idea was: you get bigger and bigger for the whole 9 months, suffer because you are big and it’s not comfortable anymore, you don’t train (I don’t know why) and you desperately focus on losing...

I miss lifting weights a lot. The traning I am currently doing is full of free squats and lots of TRX and spring work for legs, arms and shoulders. I’d never think I’d miss my bars and kettlebels and Bulgarian bags.

So I’m currently like oatmeal/cornflakes with milk, fruits with milk, biscuits sided with milk, plain yogurt basically with all meals and warm milk with...

Quick update
I’ll go in bullets because I like it clean and tidy:)
- My nausea is still in full force. I have it like an hour when I wake up, it disappears and comes back stronger in the afternoon until I go to sleep. I never thrown out meanwhile, it justs gives a restless, uncomfortable feeling and doesn’t allow me to eat what I’m supposed to eat.
- To seek relief for nausea, I crave...

I woke up very early today shivering in bed. It’s not really cold in Istanbul (around 23-25 degrees) but I was cold inside so I had gone to bed with a cardigan. Then I started sweating ike crazy so changed everything on me. A couple hours and I’m shivering again. So I decided to stay in and take the day off from work. Lucky I had my laptop with me so I could work from home.

First trimester in pregnancy

Almost no social life in the evenings if I haven’t slept in the day to get prepared for the evening - attention here, I’m not even mentioning about the night! And the worst is nausea. Ok it is not as bad as I hear from some people, at least I am not...

Feeling a little better today. Yesterday when I started running a fever, I was worried because I knew a rise in temperature is not good for your baby’s health and a rise of temperature above 38C may be lethal for the baby.
So I went home, took the medication my doctor prescribed, and spent the rest of the day lying in bed. The max temperature I had was 37.2.
I am trying to get a full...

Fever when pregnant
I have been slightly ill the last 2 days so I have been trying to take it slow. Evenings I chill and get under the blankets and in the mornings I woke up in a pool of sweat. But today at the office my eyes started burning and I felt my temperature rising. I sent an e-mail to my doctor asking if I should take any medication, when and which one. Now waiting for the news. I know that running a fever...

Stomach problems
I’m having stomach problems these last two days. Yesterday I had the hiccups all day long. It only got worse in the evening. I tried to relax myself to be able to stop it and go to sleep and I almost managed it. But then I woke up in the middle of the night and had to rush to the bathroom to throw up. Then I had to drink a sip of coke and get back to sleep. (I never ever drink coke or...

Random talk
Today I almost started the day with insecurities, worries and clouds round my head. But then my husband spoke to me about 15 minutes and reversed my whole approach. I can’t tell how much thankful I am to him. Sometimes you need someone to hold and pull you up. This morning this was what he did to me. Now my day is shining.
I tried to be a responsible person when driving work. I made sure I...

Hungry for change
Today at home I watched the movie Hungry for change. Lately I’m quite interested in watching and reading on nutrition. I do care about what I feed my body with and I’m caring about it even more lately because I cook for my husband too. Plus we are thinking about enlarging our family - yes we may have a little baby in the coming months/years:). So well, in short I do my research on...

Yoga progress
I did my first non-assisted headstand ever!!! I feel like having conquered the world haha.
But I can’t believe how huge my his and tighs are when I’m in headstand!!!
Edit: when I say non-assisted headstand, never ever assume I’m without the wall:) my husband used to help me raise my legs and this is what I referred to as assistance.

Recent "Win"s on Food
Additional to yesterday wins, I said no to a gorgeous white chocolate strawberry cake yesterday evening. And it was my husband’s bday cake! I knew that I could have take a small piece if I wanted to, I don’t have to say a strict no and it’s all about moderation. But I wasn’t craving it that much so why should I eat it if I’m not really wanting it? That is something...

Today has been challenging in terms of food. I chose to eat a fish salad today when I was craving carbs and I chose to eat yogurt with fruits when I had a huge sweet tooth. Today’s a win.

I need a huge office room with a desk double mine current one, a huge screen for my laptop, a coffee machine, a fruit drawer, water fountain and some black chocolate because I need them most when I need my brain. I’m sure my efficiency will at least double.

I’m sucking at working out this week. Last Thursday I had a huge migraine that did not allow me to go to my dance class and to cross fit after that. And today the meeting at work finished 2 hours later than planned and I missed my dance class again!! But I am not missing the cross fit. I’m gonna give it my best.
Yesterday night I was planning to practice some yoga. Before leaving work, I searched about on yogaglo and chose a 60 min hatha practice focusing on core work. But my husband came home earlier than I expected and I went cuddled with him instead of the yoga practice. I bet that was good for my soul too.
Visitors
I’m having visitors to my blog mostly from USA and Turkey. Then I have a couple visitors from UK and Canada. And only 1 from Sweden. I have some part of my family living in Sweden but I don’t think they’re aware of my blog so I’m curious:)
