I quit!

At least for now....some may not know me and some barely remember me.  I used to be active but then life took a strangle hold on me and I could not check in as much or contribute like I wanted to.   Promotions, school, and life in general.  Anyways I got down to 165 (total loss 62.5!!!! and I was looking damn good too).......the way it is looking right now I'm going to have to drop out (or atleast lurk and try to still give encouragement****il atleast August.   You see I'm expecting (I'm due mid-June).  Everyone told me that as soon as I lost the weight I would get pregnant....but I don't think that is why.  I think that the fact me and my husband were humping like bunnies in celebration of my weight loss is what did it!  LMAO I'll keep you guys posted and will probably be ranting from time to time for y'all to save me from my cravings (so far none just like the last time)  as I know that this is not a free pass to gorge but I sure do want to because of all the things I denied myself over the past 7 months or so.)  Or if you guys have alternatives to post that are healthy let me know.

congrats .. and stay around and tell us about your pregnancy... I am right behind you... Not preggers yet, but hope to bye by the end of the year... If you dont mind my asking, what was your'e pre-pregnancy starting weight, and have you and your doctor discussed how mucj weight you shuold gain to have a healthy pregnancy? GOOD LUCK !!!

Thanks!!!!   Well I was 227.5 to start with.  I should only gain between 15-20.  Which is what I gained with the first one and I was at 177 then vs. 165 nowt.   I wish you luck, practice makes perfect or atleast its fun trying!!!!     MAY THE FERTILE FAIRY VISIT YOU DAILY OH AND THINK BLUE FOR ME

Congratulations on the pregnancy and keep in touch! Brenda

I'm to new to know you but wanted to congratulate you on your pregnancy!   AND your weight loss!!!  

Congratulations on the baby!!

Congratulations!  I'm fairly new here so I don't believe we've ever met, but good luck!  How exciting, another baby.  I just love babies.  Think God invented tubals for people like me.  I would have had twenty more if I could have!  Call me a baby factory and I would have been fine. :)

Here's (((((((blue vibes)))))) going your way!

Tisha: Congrats. You may want to find a nutritionist that specializes in preganancy nutrition.... they will help you find the middle ground between nutrition for the baby, yourself, and weight management. There are also resources: internet and books on the subject. The key for you may be documenting your calorie intake as well as a weight graph to keep in check whether your weight gain during your preganancy is a healthy one. Most importantly make sure the little one gets what they need!  -Bud

Wow!  i did not realize you were going for preggers! Congrats! Now more than ever, do watch your weight. Gaining too much with my first pregnancy was one of my things I wish i could do over! It's easier keeping it together - i did it the second time around - only eat normally, but no crappy foods, or to a minimum. There is a pregnancy board around here, but I want you to poke your head in more than only lurking! I miss you.
