    We're having a GIRL! Miss Miranda Catherine <3 I'm so over the moon and hubby is beyond excited!!!

    Though the appt brought a little drama.....Our appt wasn't til 4:15p. Even though they had scheduled me for the u/s today, it wasn't on the tech's paperwork and I was going to have to wait til DH's schedule and tech's were the same, a week, maybe 2 without him having to take off of work. while we were trying to figure out the best situation scheduling the lady said she'd talk with the tech and see what was available, there was about a 15min wait and they said if we hold on a little longer, we could get in today :) From almost tears of excitement to frustration and back to excitement all in a matter of 30min. I do have to go back for another u/s in 2 weeks for them to check cervix size and then had to have blood drawn for a test. She has 2 small cysts in her head that they want to check out more of. But the doc says she thinks it's nothing, just to be on the safe side.. otherwise heart rate and measurements are great and on track :)

    Thanks all! I'm annoyed with the doc and her scale though.. she says I've gained more than 'she'd' like... I also had a 415pm appt so I'd already eaten quite a bit, not that they care. I weighed in at 213 yesterday, but this morning on my scale I was at 209.6. Which is 11lbs up from my pap smear appt in Oct. My first pregnancy doc appt I was 200.2... so even with their scale yesterday, I'm up 12.8 at almost the halfway point (or 9.4 with my weight today).. and I know it's based on my height, but they want me to gain max of 20lbs total.. If I can't 'control' it, they want me to see a nutritionalist which I won't do. Anyway, happy thoughts.

    Hope you all have a great day and weekend. I'll be home alone while hubby goes on a 4wheeling trip to Oklahoma and my family is going to my grandma's. SInce I can't take the dogs to either, I'm home with them. Hoping it doesn't rain too much so I can get my walking on :)

    Bit of a blip this week - a real week of two halves. Baaaad weekend continued with too many biscuits first half of the week. But did lots more exercise, properly started kettlebell workouts, cycled to work twice and did Zumba class and on the Wii. So....might be a mix of too much snacking but extra muscle...so I'm not overly worried. I'm focussed and will lose the 5 lbs by the end of the month

    1/3 = 183.8
    9/3 = 180.4
    17/3 = 181.4

    Loss so far = 2.4lbs

    I know it is late in the month but I would really like to join in, I hope that is OK. I have about 48lb to lose and would like to get rid of them by the end of the year which means about 5 pounds a month and this thread perfectly fits my goals :)

    I am backdating to beginning of march so I can have full entry here:

    I am really late entering this challenge - but I am so glad I found it. I don't know if I'll hit 5 lbs, but this will certainly help keep me motivated and accountable!

    I was fairly well behaved all week but had to do a couple of exams on Thursday so had to have a drink or three afterwards to recuperate. All good, another pound lost!.
