I am 9 weeks with my 4th anyone feel free to add me :) I'm hoping to keep my gain to 25-30 pounds.

I think you look great!

You look great!

I invested in a HRM with a chest strap. So glad that I did. I find that my machine, HRM and MFP all have a different answer. Usually over estimated. I trust and love my HRM and it allows me to be more confident in eating most of my exercise calories back because I know it is more accurate. I have a Polar FT7 that I got on…

I don't buy it! If its not in the house I cannot consume it! I also started making fruit infused water that was always in the fridge ready for me when I needed something to drink. It has been over 2 months now and I'm loving it.

Hello my name is Megan. I am a single Mommy of 3 number 4 arriving January 2015. Kadin (7), Caleb (5) and Calie (15months) I am currently in the middle of a divorce and this pregnancy was very much a surprise for me and my soon to be ex! I'm hoping to keep my weight gain to a reasonable amount and continue exercising as…

I've been looking for something like this for myself!!

Age - 28 Height - 5'2" HW: 210 SW: 195 CW: 180 (last friday) GW: 135

Just found out I am 5 weeks with my 4th!! I was 210 at the end of my pregnancy with my 3rd and I have gotten down to 180 since then (Feb. 2014) Nausea is really kicking in at night and I am having trouble eating my dinner :( This time I will eat healthy and continue to exercise as I have been for the past few months. Feel…

Just found out I am 5 weeks with my 4th!!! Currently going through a divorce so I will now be a single Mom of 4. I have lost over 15 pounds so far and found out I was pregnant on the 12th of this month. Going to continue to eat healthy and exercise throughout this pregnancy. Anyone feel free to add me :)

The more friends the better! I am a daily logger and try my best to support and encourage all my friends daily. Looking for friends to do the same for me. I also have an open diary. I love looking at diaries and getting new ideas for food. :) Anyone feel free to add me.

^^^ This! I am a Momma of 3 and I bow down to you as well. I would love to have the tummy in your before pic when I reach my goal.

Wow! You look fabulous!! Keep up the amazing work :)

Welcome Penny feel free to add me! :)

Thank you for sharing!! Can't stand all the negativity seriously people grow the hell up! I agree with cheat meals or days once in a while if you can handle it. If you don't like it don't do it!! Very simple :bigsmile:

Wow! This is awesome keep up the great work!!!

I agree with all the above advice. Buy a food scale and use it, adjust your calories in your goal settings and I would invest in a HRM to know how many calories you are burning when working out. <-- way more accurate than MFP or guessing.

Hmmmm probably should have checked gender first I don't suppose you would be wearing a bra... Lol

I clip my watch onto my bra/ workout shirt strap I have never had an issue with it getting bumped. That's all I got but I hope it helps ;)

Would love to be some support to you together we can all do this!!! I sent a FR you CAN do this!!! :happy:

I find my motivation here on MFP. Love having friends with open diaries that are active on the site daily to help support each other. I am a single Mom of 3 kids my youngest being 14 months. Anyone feel free to add me :)

I don't agree with starving my body of the fuel it needs so I always eat more than 1200. Im at 1710 plus I eat at least half of my workout calories. I have lost 11 pounds so far (in about 7 weeks) and I feel great because I am making a healthy lifestyle change I'm not on a diet. I think you should eat more. Take it as you…

Thank you for sharing your before pictures! You are truly fabulous and no you do not look as bad as you describe yourself but I got a good laugh at your description ;) Sending a friend request always looking for new friends to support can't wait to see your transformation :laugh:

I increase my water intake by at least 3-6 more glasses than usual and continue exercise even though I feel blah! I also try to fit whatever I might be craving, within reason, into my daily log. I also don't keep those tempting things in my house. For me its cookies or chocolate. I have 3 kids so if it isn't in the house I…

I drink tons of water (helps with the bloating) and make sure to exercise I feel it helps me. I try to stay strong when the cravings come but sometimes its tough. Hang in there it really is the worst but we can do this!!

My Dad used to put cruise control on and run between mile markers... I see that being more of an exercise than just plain driving. If you won't be able to fit in a workout I say maybe do some running in place while driving see how long you can do it. If you stop at a rest stop or for gas get out and do some walking,…

Keep up the awesome work!!! Thanks for sharing!
