Yup. Intentionally pregnant. Due in 8 weeks and will be celebrating my 40th in June. Trying really hard not to gain a crazy amount of weight. Meanwhile, I work full tie and part time. I am also working on my Masters degree, homeschooling my 13 year old twins and I am a girl scout leader. I was doing great on Keto prior to pregnancy (since October 2015) and then allowed emotional eating after 2 miscarriages to pack on 30 pounds. Add that to the additional 30 pounds I have gained since pregnant with my little boy. Just looking for a little bit of support to push myself to be healthier.

    Wow lots going on! We’re homeschooling our two kids too! I work full time and plan all the curriculum and it’s a handful but very fulfilling!

    Concentrate on everything in your life right now, particularly your pregnancy. There will be time to concentrate on weight loss after the birth of your child. Eat sensibly.
    So sorry for your losses, it’s devastating.
    Take care of yourself and your baby!
