You look incredible, well done! A true inspiration!

Love it, it is how I lost all of my weight. Yoga, Just Dance, Fit games, go for it!

Feel free to add me, have a 6 yo girl, 4 yo boy and a 7 week old boy! Trying to get back to my prepregnancy weight for good since this is our last!

you look like a new woman! Well done!

Hi Ladies, Sorry for being so sporatic in posting. Hard to keep up with this thread now that I am no longer logging my food! Just wanted to give an update. Aftere gaining 3lbs during the week of our Alaskan cruise, the following two weeks I lost weight, which brings my current weight gain at 20 weeks to 9 lbs. I am super…

Hi Ladies, So exiting to see you all on here! Things are great here, just 6 days until we find out the baby's sex. Anxious to know, but slightly nervous. I have a boy and girl and if I am really honest, I would prefer another girl, but I would hate to be dissapointed. So I am trying my best to remain neutral about the…

Hello! I have been MIA ever since we went on our Alaskan Cruise, and I have stopped logging my food. It was getting too stressful and I needed to let go. But it is great to see that everyone is doing so well! THings are coming along great, and I am finally showing! I have been feeling kicks all week and am just as anxious…

Hi Ladies! Just trying to keep up here, so many new people! Things are great here, 15 weeks along and feeling great. Weighed in today to find that I am up .4lbs this week, a total of 5.5 since my lowest weight. That makes me happy! Starting to show a little bit, but thankfully only my hubby and I notice, all of my other…

Hello ladies! Looks like we've got a much bigger group, exciting to see it grow! THings are going well over here, finally starting to show, at least my husband and I can see it! I weighed in this morning and after losing .7 lbs last week, I am up 1.8 lbs, this week, bringing my total to about 4 lbs up. Totally happy with…

Thanks Heather, for pointing me in this direction, I was wondering where everyone went! (I was still on June's page!) Well, it has been a couple of weeks since we have all talked, but I am happy to announce that I am officially 1/3 of the way done! 13 weeks today, and out of my first trimester. I went for my second…

Well, it has been a couple of weeks since we have all talked, but I am happy to announce that I am officially 1/3 of the way done! 13 weeks today, and out of my first trimester. I went for my second appointment on Friday, and my doctor was impatient to find the baby's heartbeat on the doppler. So we popped into an…

I certainly don't want to scare you, but I have always heard that it wasn't safe to take ibuprofen during pregnancy, we are supposed to use Tylenol, here is an article I found: http://www.babycenter.com/406_is-it-safe-to-take-ibuprofen-during-pregnancy_1246873.bc. So sorry about your headaches, I know how lousy that can…

I am 9 weeks pregnant and have consulted my doctor as well as friends and nurses. Basically, the baby is a parasite, it will take what it needs. Until you work out a dietary and exercise plan with your doc, just do what you have been doing! You don't really need to up any calories until the 2nd and 3rd trimester when you…

Personally I go into Just Dance Mode and hit "Non-Stop Shuffle" and time myself. When I enter it into MFP I use Dancing Aerobic. Seems pretty accurate, and you also do not have to wait super long for the next song to come on. I jog in place while waiting for the song to load, so I know I have really been exercising that…

It was great, I was actually thinking of you, I am sorry that your experience was disappointing. With every pregnancy I have seen my doc at 8 weeks and he has done an internal ultrasound so we could see the heart beating and get some pictures. That has always been when I was assured enough to tell the world. Do you know…

Well, I had my first appointment of Friday and got my first ultrasound pictures, everything looks great! Doc said not to stress too much over my diet and keep up the exercise! We made the big announcement, because as my bf says, if it isn't of Facebook, it isn't real, lol! So the word is out, the kids are thrilled, life is…

Low fat cream cheese and a swirl of nutella!

Welcome! I am in Reno too! Feel free to friend me!

Well done!

Hi Minnesotamama, as far as the midwife thing, I would recommend watching the documentary "The Business of Being Born" it is a fascinating look at both sides and really interesting. I know it is available on Netflix, Just a good way to look at both sides!

First of all, Congrats Heather! Healthy baby sounds great, and I am so happy for you and your husband. Charlotte is a beautiful name! And I have to say I am happy to hear it is a girl! I had my girl first and am glad for it, she was super helpful with my son when he was born. Life is good here. Anxoius for my first…

Anyone?

I was thinking the same! Canm't wait for the news!

Happy Monday Ladies! Sorry I was so whiny last post, just had a rough go. Fortunately the weekend turned out much better than expected. Inlaws were tolerable because they ended up staying in a hotel, although they spent every spare minute here, at least at night we had some time to ourselves. And my German houseguest is…

First of all, thanks everyone for your imput, I feel way better about this weight gain, and am sincerely hoping it's bloating. It wouldn't surprise me because I have been really gassy and crampy lately. I have really been monitoring my calories, sodium, carbs and fiber, so hopefully I can stay on top of this. I so want to…

I'm here! I am going between oatmeal and maple syrup and Kashi cereal in the mornings. Also trying to eat a scramble about once a week. Good way to start th eday, then I am not starving by 10am! A little bummed here. Weighed in today after keeping my calories at 1500-1900 all week, and working out at least 30 minutes a…

Just Dance 2 and Wii Fit Plus. THey are what I use and have used to lose almost all of my 24 lbs. Best of luck!

I learned this one quick, Husband goes to the first one, there is usually an ultra sound, but not what you are thinking. THis one is internal. So you are robed and under the sheets, and they insert the camera (?) to get your first baby pictures. He should definately be there. After this appointment they do not do anything…

Bumping over here now that we have moved on! THings are going great here, just started feeling real pregnancy syptoms whih is nice, because I still haven't had my first Drs appointment. I am slightly dizzy and my breasts are sore. Such a welcome confirmation! I am lucky because with my first two I never had morning…

I have lost the majority of my weight doing the Wii Fit, it is helpful because I am a stay at home mom, and do't always have an opportunity to go to the gym, and nap time makes good workout time. I use Just Dance 2, Rhythm Boxing, Island Bicycling and Free Step all of the time. Great tool for those of us on a budget! Well…
