    Good afternoon!

    Got my 6 miles in this morning and burned 704 calories.

    Now time to finish getting this house ready for company.

    Does anybody know what the recommended percentage of Carbs, Fat, and Protien should be??? I know that fat percentage is going to be more and I put it at 25% in my goals, but I'm not sure if that's even correct and what the others should be.

    That's amazing I can't believe your doctor lets you exercise that much so close. You must be feeling great.

    She said it's great I'm still going to the gym and she wishes more women would. I'm not having any complications, nor have I EVER gone into labor lol. Plus it's keeping my weight gain in check which I was struggling (a lot lol) with. :)

    Hi ladies! I'll jump on this bandwagon, even though it's LATE in November. lol I'm not pregnant, but I'm working towards losing 20 lbs so that hubby and I can TTC. I would really like to be 140 before we start trying and gain no more than 20 lbs with the pregnancy. I'm sure you ladies can help me with that. lol Name is Becky, by the way. Nice to meet you!

    I was so inspired I worked out until I hit the 777 calorie mark. Well I wasn't aiming for that high, but that's what I hit.

    managed to burn 550 calories today, but I'm sure all the extra food took care of that. LOL

    I think baby-gaga.com was down for a while yesterday. :flowerforyou:

    7 weeks today & I still haven't puked. Is it too naive of me to think I may possibly escape bad morning sickness? In fact, my nausea seems to be getting better for the last couple of days instead of worse (knock on wood). Boobs have been hurting more though, but I'll happily take that over feeling sick.

    I"m just at 12 weeks in a couple days and I managed this time with only mild nausea and no puking at all! I was nauseated badly nearly 24/7 for almost 2 months last time. (Hopefully this does not mean that this time it's a girl!!). So, I'm thinking I'm nearly out of the woods.

    Side note - I ate whatever I wanted yesterday (for dinner, I ate moderately for breakfast and really light for lunch) and ended up 33 cals within my maintenance goal! I skipped pie though because I was full. It's on the menu for today with leftovers! I can afford it today because I burned 500+ this morning at the gym!

    I was one of the fortunate ones and never have had morning sicknesss with any of my 4 pregnancies. So no, I don't think it is naive of you to think you may escape it because not everyone has it. :smile:

    I haven't thrown up and, like some of the others, have only had mild nausea. I only feel icky if I eat too much at one time or if I go too long without eating (this was especially true in the first trimester; and by too long I mean 2-3 hours). I can relate to the boob thing though--WOW mine killed...but even that went away a few weeks into the second trimester.

    I haven't puked 1 time and I am 21 weeks. Had lots of nausea and it got worse around weeks 9-10. So good luck.

    Looks like it was a very slow Saturday here so I just had to post to say hello to everyone. Hope you all are enjoying your weekends.

    Hey everyone! Was doing great at the slow gain until Thanksgiving. Now I'm up 1.2 lbs. Must make sure I get in plenty of exercise this week. Otherwise, I'm not that worried. This past week was def. a vacation from healthy eating, but not the start of a habit. I still fit in my fruits and veggies, though.

    As far as morning sickness goes, I haven't had any outright vomiting. I do get really nauseous every once in awhile. I have come to realize that a lot of it came from my prenatal. I have stopped taking it with breakfast and started taking it with lunch. That seems to help.

    I have had to deal with being famished at night lately. The other night I woke up at 2am feeling like I could eat an entire meal. I made myself go back to sleep and ended up waking up every hour feeling miserable. It started again last night and I decided to get up and have a handful of cereal. I went back to bed and slept like a baby! Up until now I've been having major issues getting a restful night of sleep. I don't know how bad it is for me to be eating in the middle of the night like that (every healthy non-pregnancy related thing I have read on the issue says NOT to eat before bedtime). If it's going to let me get a good night's sleep, though, I'm just going to make sure there is something healthy and small on hand to grab.

    16 days until baby!

    Unfortunately I gained like 6lbs over this week. I know I didn't overeat THAT bad, but I skipped the gym 4 days in a row AND overdid it on the salt while out shopping.

    So back on track (lost 1.4lbs of the 6lbs so far lol) with my water, normal calories and sodium, and gym time. Burned 1027 at the gym yesterday and hoping for a similar trip today, but alas...all the laundry and housework and baby prep I skipped this week (we had company) is priority number one. So waiting until this afternoon for the gym. :)

    Hi all! I was in a group for TTC and we just found out this weekend that I am pregnant! This is my first and I can use all of the support I can get. Can I join you ladies?

    I weighed Friday and have not gained in a few weeks. I feel good about that. So up about 6lbs from pre-pregnancy. I will take that, since last pregnancy I had to eat very, very often to keep nausea in check and had gained around 18lbs by 12 weeks. Eeeek! Starting to feel slightly better. I can't wait until I hit second tri, more energy, ceasing of nausea.

    I think I am very happy that this time I came into preg at a deficit! Last time I ate more because I was hungrier and so I gained more than I should have. This time bumping up from 1500 to 2000 a day plus all my exercise calories and even eating literally every 2 hours and several times getting up and eating at night I actually have not gained anything yet - I think I actually lost about a lb. I think 2000 cals just seems like so much food after being at 1200 for a while and then 1500 for a while. I can't imagine if I was eating at maintenance or (more likely) slightly over already and then had to eat more (or at least feel like I had to!) to stay from getting sick. I bet actually exercising this time has made the huge difference! Those extra 500 cals 4 days a week go a long way for me!

    Side note - ironically, on day 1 of week 13 and more tired than I have been in a long time! Just exhausted for no real reason. I think I'm probably just a bit anemic, so I see some red meat or spinach pizza in my near future! Yummy!

    That's great I know you were concerned about rapid weight gain.

    I first went in and got a blood test to check my HCG levels and than another one 3 days later to check them again and make sure they were going up accordingly. We are going in on Wed. for our 1st ultrasound though and talk to the doc. We had been ttc for over 2 years and had lots of problems so the doc is wanting to keep seeing us. Normally I thought it was around 8 weeks though (at least it was with my other kids) I think it depends a lot on the circumstances and who your Doc is too.
