Lost 14 lbs in April

I'm thrilled to be losing weight more steadily again after what seemed like a long slow plateau. However, i am nervous because of the pregnancy. I am struggling to eat enough, i have to force myself to eat extra protein bars and foods because i am just not hungry, i feel full quite a bit of the time. I'm doing my best to make sure i get my 90 grams of protein in every day, but i'll be honest this is the most I've struggled with it since the initial month or 2 after surgery. I now cannot each just protein, i have to include a decent amount of carbs in my daily food intake because it's bad for baby to be in ketosis. I'm working on it and i hope that by this time next week i have a good handle on what foods I can tolerate well. I may have to start adding protein powders into some other drinks or foods, not sure what though? Working on it, suggestions are always welcomed :-)

Losing Weight on Vacation

It's amazing to go on a vacation and come home weighing less. That's not how it usually works, but for me it did. I love my DS!!!! Weighed in last Saturday at 275 1/2 and weighed in today at 270 1/2. So this week i lost 5 lbs!!! And that was with 4 days of eating out on vacation and being pregnant! WOOT! Can't complain about that one bit.

100 lbs and a SURPRISE

I reached the 100 lbs lost mark. I can't get over it! I mean 100 lbs in 7 months time? Really WOW! I can't begin to explain how much this has changed my life. I exercise now. I do so many things i would have put off before. I am sooooo looking forward to summer this year and being outside & doing activities. It's all just amazing!

And on the amazing note, we found out last week that we are expecting. It was and frankly still is a shock. I mean we do know how babies are made, but you just don't think it's going to happen to you after years of infertility and trying to get pregnant. And even though everyone tells you when you lose weight you'll be more fertile, you just don't really truely believe it. Well i do now! For now we're just taking it a day at a time, if i get through the 1st trimester okay i'll probably relax a bit more and make some plans for babies arrival in December.
