Welcome and congratulations to everyone!!! :D

Not me I am almost 7 weeks and it was almost instantaneous that I have gained 6lbs and idk why...its really upsetting though =/

Congrats on your first pregnancy! It can be a shock, thats for sure! Weve been trying for months and as the old saying goes, " when you stop trying it happens", was definitely true in our case....so we will have 2 May babies. Welcome to the group! :)

I wanted to get one with my first pregnancy, but my hubby wont let me...he is worried it would do me more harm than good bc if I couldnt find the babies heartbeat I would freak out...he is right...I know with my first even at the doctors office it would sometimes take a while and Id freak! So I dont need one..lol

Thank you! I hate the elliptical, idk why but it is so much more boring than the treadmill, I just love to run, so the elliptical just doesnt do it for me lol. I feel like I can handle the treadmill and weights, it just seems like I am feeling the stretching in my stomache and thats what worries me about continuing...what…

According to my calculations I am due May 18th, which is less than 2 weeks after my sons birthday who will be 2 this May. But this pregnancy is different! I know I am pregnant but I dont quite feel it yet..like maybe it hasnt fully hit me idk.....I have been urinating more than I remember and I am a lot more tired. I only…

We are in the same boat! My first one came may 5th, 2011 and I am due around May 18th according to my calculations! I hope you are not plagued this time around! I am hoping I will not become borderline preeclampsia again. Im not fretting either so I am waiting until October to see my obgyn as I am due for my yearly…

Have you picked out the baby's name:Not yet! It was hard with our first one though to agree! Where do you live: Fredericksburg, VA Workouts you are…

bump :)

Idk how fit she is, but maybe it is her way of telling you that your success is making her feel less attractive so she is trying to cause you to go back to your old ways so she doesnt feel so bad about herself? Just odd, I cant imagine my man being overly muscular but I am looking forward to seeing his progress as we make…

wow just 16 months!? Thats fantastic! You look great!

great job! Ty! Way to mainatin you look great! Thats the hardest part!

^^This^^

I figure lead by example....thats my strategy. I am very particular about what my son eats. I do let him have some cookies now and then and I do give his watered down juice a day, but at meals I make sure he always has at least fruit and or a veggie. He generally eats what I do and since having him I have changed my diet…

You look AMAZING!! I am looking forward to being so close to goal! :)

Future pregnancies and vanity :). The weight is just not worth putting me back in the high risk category again.

^^THIS^^ And sometimes my classes vary so I put Zumba for Med intensity and if it was higher intensity I add 5 more min and if it was less I deduct 5 mins from my already 10min less than class until I get an HRM :)

Wow great job!! Way noticeable!

My boyfriends ex asked him permission bc she said it sounds better than her maiden name.....lol. He said he didnt care. She doesnt deserve the last name though IMO (and I know bc we were friends which is how I met my current bf, long story and no I am not a home wrecker :))

^^This^^ My little man used to love watching me do 30 day shred I would put him in his bouncer and he would just laugh and smile and I would interact with him while I did it. Plus it was 20min so it wasnt too long at all. Now we joined a gym and he loves going into the daycare there bc he flirts with all the…

^^This^^ I do the same thing, or wear an HRM while you do it and input your HRM cals burnt :)

Wow great loss!! Way to go!

wow you look great!!! awesome job!

Always have been, always will be!

I make taco soup which involves beans, taco seasoning, diced tomatoes with peppers and ground turkey. If you buy bag beans its cheap and it goes a long way! I generally use light and or dark red kidney beans (1 bag) and 1 bag of black beans though you can use pinto as well. I use rotel diced tomatoes which are generally…

Yum!

I agree completely.....I work at IHOP and I have to take my salad to the bare bones to even have it at 400 cals (with crispy chicken for a treat) its 75 less with grilled chicken. But anyways. I take out the cheese,bacon bits, I dont get the egg and just have the lettuce and the chicken. Really its the meat and dressing. I…

Great Job! You look amazing!!
