Hello everyone. I haven't checked in for awhile but wanted to make sure you knew I have not forgotten you all. Wow on week 22! How time has flown. The group looks like it has gotten small but the ones that are left are doing great! Good Job everyone!

My latest update was a big one. I found out on friday at 19 weeks pregnant I am expecting twins!!!! Crazy thought. So, babies will be born a little earlier than expected. Think of the weight loss I will be able to report when they are born. Biggest loser here!!!

I am doing well though. Still counting calories. Found out I am supposed to eat 600 calories past my maintenance calories. Have not managed even close to that yet. Eating about 2000 calories a day and have not managed much gain at all. I am up 3 lbs. So, I am doing really well. I also have managed to stay active too. It is getting harder though. I get in about 3 light workouts a week. However, walking is starting to bring on pain in the stomach region so that may have to come to an end. Stationary bike is good and I will be starting the pool next week I have decided. I just hope I can make it to the 3rd trimester still being able to work out.

But, just wanted to check in. You are all doing great and I look forward to being back soon, but not too soon. Hope to keep those babies in there to 37 weeks.

    Great news...and so funny you wrote in today...I haven't been on here for over a month and apparently I'm preggo too! Baby #3 will hopefully be on the way although this has been a crazy ride so I'm just hoping it sticks. I don't think I'll be using the group for a while but I might start to use the calorie counting tool again.

    Best wishes to you and hope everyone has been doing fabulous!
