Checking in after over a year..
Hello Everyone,
It's been a very long time. I don't even recognize some of you but I know your name. I hope everyone has been doing well. Me, well. I'm doing pretty darn good. I had a "you're gaining weight because you are pregnant" moment in July 2007. It knocked me off my feet! I wasn't expecting to have another baby but boy number 3 (Dareon Johnnie) will be a year old next month. It seems funny being a "new mom" again at 37. Note on that.... if your doctor tells you it's hard to get pregnant again after using the nuva ring, don't believe him! I forgot once, just once!
Anyway, being pregnant after RNY seems to have done more to my stomach then the weight loss did. I've got the ugliest stomach in the world. However, I can see right over it and for that , I'm grateful. I had some complications and was delayed getting back into the gym after he was born but I'm back in the game now. Actually, I'm bodybuilding now. Hell, if I can have a baby at 37 then I can body build at 37.
All in all, everything is going well. My BMI is 29% and I'm working towards 23%. I can't tell you what I weight anymore. My trainer knows but I don't. He says I have gained so much muscle that the scale would just freak me out. I know that can't be a good thing so I'll just take his word for it.
I have to run. I'm hoping to upload a picture of me and one of my little guy. Hope to hear from you all soon and again, I hope you all are well.
Happy New Year!
