Would you rather just look pregnant......... ??????
Or Fat??? I'm still not taking it too well when folks are saying?? "oh your pregnant?" So what does it really mean? I lost 130lbs. never made to the docs. first goal, will stive for it once my son is born, however, to answer my own question, I guess I would rather look pregnant, because that would now be the reason why I'm fatter or fat again?? I'm in my 35th wk. & I've been I would say lucky enough to have not gained too much excess wt. thus far. My baby boy is growing fine! but I guess to a "wls" paitent it's just hard to take comments in the wrong context? Some people thought just because I became pregnant, that I re-gain all of my wt. back? like the entire 130lbs.?? so it's really important for me to loose that last 30lbs. once the baby arrives, I will really try to make a serious effort to get to that 1st goal. Share with me what you you rather be considered?? when people look at you??

I am almost 33 weeks and people are still shocked when they hear that I am pregnant. I feel like a WHALE and when I see myself in the mirror I can totally see it so apparently the rest of the world thinks I just have a huge massive fat round belly. I wonder if at any point in this pregnancy I will be unmistakably pregnant looking... and I am beginning to doubt it. Oh well, in the end the only concern that I have is that my little girl arrives safe and healthy.... and hopefully I wont gain too much more... I am up a whopping 18 lbs.... YIKES!!!!
It took a while for my "bump" to show and I felt like I just looked fat as well. My solution was to go shopping and buy the things that I wouldn't wear before because they made look pregnant when I wasn't! Give it a try!
