***Tuesday Weigh Day!***
Well, It's that time of the week again! I hope you all had a very good week!!! I honestly am stumped for a question this week.. I would love your help with this? Anyone want to volunteer? We have asked about so many things that I am truly at a loss! Here are my statistics, remember I did not weight last week since I was out of town.
HW: 328
SW: 280
LW: 147.6 (2 weeks ago)
CW: 144.4
Let's stay ~~determined~~focused~~driven this week! We can do it!
Have a great week!
I'll think of a question while I'm out picking up kids. Wanted to pop in on this before I forgot AGAIN.
HW: 265
SW: 240
LW: 174.5
CW: 174.5
Still holding steady, so I'm generally pleased. Doc said no more (or very little) loss now that I'm in trimester 2...so I'll do what I can. I CAN feel my body shape shifting though. I'd be pleased if I only gained 5 lbs total. 
You know...I asked and I got no real definitive answer. It always varied pregnancy to pregnancy and person to person, so we'll see. My OB did say she'd not like me to lose much more, a pound or two only, and since I've been maintaining for the last month and a half, I'm not too worried that I'll drop any more. I keep expecting the scale to show a gain every time I step on it, but it doesn't, so I'm happy. Because I still had 50 lbs to go when I got pregnant, they're fine with me gaining 0-20 lbs. I am hoping it will be closer to the zero mark, provided baby is healthy. Either way, I will try to keep it in perspective. I'm actually struggling still with eating because while I DO get hungry (my body feels it) I just don't feel like it. Food in all forms is such a turn off, with the exception of seafood and I'm limited to one serving of that a week. I mean I do eat...I just don't eat as much as I should, I think because I'm not feeling like it. 
And thanks for saying I'm cute...not feeling it, but hoping too soon. 
And thanks for saying I'm cute...not feeling it, but hoping too soon. DOH! I thought I'd posted that I DID find it. Now I just have to get up the energy to make something. I had a long talk with my OB the other day at my appt. She feels I should definitely talk with my shrink and get back on some meds. I have to agree. I do think that's part of my problem here as well. Bipolar disorder is such a vicious circle and I'm almost certain that I'm cycling rapidly. A first during pregnancy for me. Anyway, she says I'm far enough along that the meds will have minimal (if any) effect on the baby, and that it would be much better for its development if I wasn't so stressed, exhausted, anxious, depressed, etc. Having out of whack biochemicals is apparently harmful to unborn babies. So...I have a call into him, hopefully he'll be able to find something that isn't too harsh but will be effective enough.
Ok...now that you got an earful (or eyeful as it were) how are things with you???

Ok...now that you got an earful (or eyeful as it were) how are things with you??? Glad you talked to your OB about your meds.. I have to agree you need to be stable and feel good to have a successful pregnancy and take care of your family. I hope you can find something that work for you, that would be great! Might help you all the way around.. full circle. good luck and keep us posted!!
I am doing good, working extra and trying to juggle a few things but I have no kids so what I am stressing about, I don't know how you mommies do it.. you are my inspiration for doing it for sure!!! *hugs*
