Hi I'm Marie and am 14 weeks exactly today, I haven't used my fitness pal for years but was feeling a little out of control with the cravings and just wanted to keep a rough estimate of how much I need and how much I think I need!
I have been entering for two weeks and feeling a lot better about myself and making some better choices - though Friday night is still guilt free pizza night!
Hope to talk to you people along the journey!0 -
Hi, I'm just hitting the end of my 11th week with my first child and i'm finally having some off days from the morning sickness. This morning was my first morning back at the gym in about 7 weeks. Í'd really love some new mfps so feel free to add me.
My focus now that I'm feeling better is to be active most days as i was very fit before pregnancy and would like to maintain as much as I can and eat as healthy as i can especially now that I can stomach real food again!0 -
Hello Ladies! I am 28 yrs. old and just over 8 weeks. This is my first! I too would love to get and give some support here. I lost 45 lbs. 2 years ago and put about 15 back on before finding out I was pregnant (Due Feb. 2015). I want to keep my healthy eating and exercising habits on track and am finding it much more difficult than I thought it would be during pregnancy. I am still eating pretty healthy but have cheated more times so far than I would like to admit. And I am soooooooo hungry all the time! I get nauseous if I don't eat every 2-3 hours. Luckily, I have still been able to exercise and run 3-4 times a week. I think that is the only thing that has saved me from gaining any weight so far, especially with the amount I feel like I have been eating!0

Pregnancy hunger - nothing like it! I'm just over 14 weeks and get quite emotional when I don't have food when I need it... I cried the other night when my partner had dinner on the table 15 minutes late - it was a long 15 minutes...
Porridge has been my saviour - you know the small Uncle Toby bags you heat up in the microwave about 130 calories no sugar needed and they really do stop me eating crazy foods.0 -
Nearly 8 weeks here! I am teetering between overweight and obese and hope to find some friends with similar goals!0

7 weeks today! I'm in the obese catagory heavier than I've ever been (due to comfort eating for 2 years whilst trying to get pregnant!) Since my 2 lines on the stick my eating has been near perfect and in fact I've lost about a7lbs.
Trying not to worry about the weight loss, as I am eating almost 2000 calories a day most days, and usually good nutrition so I know the baby is getting lots of goodness. Except today - when I decided I needed a piece of cheesecake!!0 -
Hello everyone. This is my first time posting in the group. I am 11 weeks and 2 days with my first baby. I finally outgrew my morning sickness so I am back to eating healthy and working out. I have lost 53lbs over the past 5 years and kept it off. I am a little nervous about gaining some of the weight back. I started at 143.5lbs and am now at 145. Hoping to make some mommy-to-be friends!0

I'm 6 weeks pregnant and would love to be part of this group! This is my second pregnancy, and I am already around 20 lbs above my ideal weight and want to be able to have a healthy pregnancy. How many calories should I eat per day my first trimester? Is it bad to try and either maintain or lose a little for these first three months since I'm carrying a few extra pounds? I will definitely talk to my doctor for at my 1st appt. but just wanted to get some of opinions.0

20lbs isn't a huge amount over your ideal weight, so personally I wouldn't try and loose weight, but from what I've read maintaining during the 1st trimester is pretty healthy. My midwife was adamant yesterday that what I am eating is much more important than what my weight does (I've lost 8lbs so far) but then I'm almost 100lbs over my ideal. (Also all this is personal opinion with no evidence to back it up!)
I've set my calories on here to maintain, and I'm averaging around that - some days over, some under. But my concentration is on nutrition and getting a wide variety of good foods.
Good luck!0 -
I think I'm about 5 weeks, maybe 6 with our second child. Got pregnant immediately after going off of birth control and I don't go to the doctor until August 13 so won't know anything until then. Looking for healthy weight gain this time around, not 80 like with my daughter! Would love all the pregnant friends I can have

Hi ladies - I only got my BFP in the last couple of days, so I'm still very early, but I'd like to keep a lid on my weight so starting asap! I've *just* got my BMI to under 35, which is excellent news, but I want to keep it there for as long as I can!
I don't have any MFP friends yet, but please feel free to add me 0 -
Add me! I'm 5 weeks pregnant with #3! number 1 is 4 and #2 is 2:).
now if only I had lost those pregnancy pounds before this one!!!0 -
Hi - I just found out today Im 5 weeks along with my 4th!! thats right, I said 4th. Complete shock to myself and my husband!! We have 2 boys, 12 & 9 and my daughter is 8. Im beyond panicked right now!! lol
I've recently lost close to 20lbs. I have to get my head around gaining it back. I plan on sticking to my gym routine for as long as I can.0 -
Hi everyone! I am 8 weeks tomorrow due in March I know that this thread started a little while back but figured it would still be awesome to get some ladies to friend on here who are in the same boat. I just signed up to MFP again I had it for a few years and took a year off. I have maintained my weight thus far and because I am 35lbs over I'm allowed to maintain for a little longer than if I was in my ideal weight. I've been told to only gain 15-20 if I watch what I eat and maintain healthy activity. I lift weights and walk for now. I was a runner but running lead to a lot of cramping so I stopped right away.
Anyways I'll add people if I miss you feel free to add me!0 -
