Hitting my wall...
Alright, I need to get this off my chest. I was going such a good job following the workout schedule for phase 1 until this week. This is ALWAYS where I fall off this program... transitioning to DVDs 3 and 4. I was dragging my feet all Saturday when I was supposed to do DVD 3 of Phase 1. Eventually I finally went through…

Looking for Motivated Friends!
Alright, I've been quiet for too long... I'm not looking for people to lean on, but people to interact with as I try to lose this weight. I had a baby 4 months ago and for the most part I've lost the weight I've gained by kinda watching my food and breastfeeding. Most might say, "awesome, you lost the baby weight!" But I…

What Happens Now?
Alrighty... I'm still waiting for my LO to make her debut but I know quite a few of you have already met your little bundles! How exciting!!! I'm trying not to be jealous because I know she'll be here soon. I know we're all starting to shift gears into mommy mode (first time for me) and our focus is changing back into…

GBS Test gone wrong :(
I'm going on 36 weeks tomorrow and had my appointment this morning where they informed me they would be doing the group B strep culture. I assumed it would happen today and waited for my doctor to come in. Now from what I've been reading this should have been a painless swab between the vagina and *kitten*. Without even…

Not Thrilled with my OB Office... *Rant*
So I've kinda been stewing since my last appointment on Christmas Eve... everything about my appointment rubbed me the wrong way. I know I've got crazy lady moments, but I'd like to think I'm still relatively level-headed :tongue: I showed up for my anatomy scan xmas eve, excited about knowing if it was a boy or girl so I…

Abs making me uncomfortable :(
Sorry, I feel like I'm posting a lot lately... but I feel very comfortable with you group of supportive ladies :drinker: So I started showing relatively late. Around 20ish weeks I finally started getting comments about having a baby belly! Well I'm now 23 weeks and I feel like my tummy has doubled in size from last week…

Push Presents?
So this was a relatively new concept to me, but after reading around the baby birth boards I guess it's a real thing. My sister-in-law actually talked to my husband before I could tell him about it, and she's been bugging him about what he's going to get me. Now, to understand my husband, he's the mr. anti-establishment…

Another week of weight loss...
So let me explain... I joined MFP when I found out I was pregnant at 8 weeks because the nausea was so bad and I wanted to make sure I was eating at least at maintenance. When I found out I was pregnant, I started out at about 212 lbs. I'm not starting at an ideal weight, as I'm only 5'6". I weighed myself this morning and…

Major Food Aversion
I've noticed there are a couple posts about constant hunger and food cravings... Am I the only one going through serious food aversions? I'm 10 weeks along and this has been happening since about week 4. It's not any food in particular. Most strong smelling food makes me gag, but food in general seems so unappetizing. I…
