    I tried. I failed. I was a super dedicated counter and weighed/measured everything and never ate out of my macros for over a year. But it became impossible after I got pregnant and it was almost an obsession and I was always hungry. So I gave up maybe around 20 weeks. I'll honestly probably start again after the baby is born but right now it isn't worth it to either of us. We deserve to have a bowl of fruit three times a day and not eat any protein if we so choose -_-

    I totally agree! There will be days where I'm not great like the other day when I had 4 pieces of Ezekiel bread and cottage cheese lol! I just want to try as long as I can.

    I gained 60 pounds in both my pregnancies so I always told myself I would try iifym if I ever got pregnant again. But I would probably maintain for the first trimester, try and gain a pound a week for the 2nd and 3rd trimester.

    Not really a diet, since you can eat junk. Better to follow a whole food, unprocessed, low carb plan.
