  • I'm in! It's been one month and I'm feeling motivated to look good in a sparkly New Year's eve dress. :) I don't normally weigh myself, just go by what I look and feel good at so I don't know my prepregnancy weight. I was a US size 4 though and sometimes a 2. Jeans were size 27. My goal weight for the new year is my old…
  • Please feel free to add me. I'm 6 months pregnant and just moved to a new place where I know no one. It's really hard to stay motivated and active when I'm so low energy and I don't know anyone yet. Thanks!
  • I'm due Oct 17th and I'm mostly doing my usual stuff to not gain weight, with mixed results. This current heat has made me sooo bloated that I feel like I've gained a bunch. I'm still not eating after 6 or 7pm which definitely makes me feel better. I've started doing a barre class and that's an amazing workout. I skip any…
  • My husband and I have 2 boy's names we like: Lynx and Zephyr(nickname Zeph).
  • Ashlie! I'm in the same boat! And it won't let you submit your day unless you ate enough of your calories. It feels a bit like a hand slap. One day in a huff I sat down and ate a bowl of soup and an avocado just to add it to the day. Haha! I feel like I eat all day too. Whole milk is a good idea and it supposedly protects…
  • Betty, glad you're getting some sleep finally. :) My first run was really sad. I had so little energy and wasn't near my former speed. The extra pregnancy blood makes my heart pound much more quickly. I definitely recommend the couch to 5k plan. As your body gets used to regular exercise and the extra blood you'll be able…
  • Ashlie, I totally get that! I had 2 large dogs(standard poodles) and Jeremy had a boxer when we met and they were our babies! <3 Sadly 3 large dogs was too much to handle with a baby on the way and a cross country move. My old roommate has my 2 and Jer's mom had his. Very sad, but I was so sick the first trimester and 3…
  • Ashlie for a second I was worried you were evicted! Ha! Cute announcement! :) My baby will be half hispanic. Seems funny to me still because where I grew up was ridiculously caucasian/asian. Moving to Los Angeles though made that extremely likely. Add a little spice to my family tree. ;) We made our announcement already.…
  • I think the goddess name, Minerva, is pretty and then she can be Minnie for short which is super cute.
  • So happy to find this group! I'm due Oct 17! This is our first baby. My husband's bday is Oct 22, so it'd be cute if they ended up on the same day. <3 Just got over the worst of my morning sickness though I still can't stand the smell of pizza, bread, or pasta. Makes it easier to stay thin! My appetite is picking up again…
  • Hi all! Feel free to add me. I'm 3 months pregnant and trying to keep my legs and arms reasonably slim. Bingo wings aren't going to help your fetus!! Ha! I'd definitely like support. It's not always easy to exercise when I'm not feeling great. And hard to eat well when my taste buds tells me veggies taste like poison.…
