Ugh.

I ate and ate and ate today. Just all day long. Now that it's bed time I feel so nauseated. Then I stupidly stepped on the scale at my heaviest time of the day. Depressing. There's no way I've gained that much in baby. No. I have got to start hitting the gym ASAP.

So grossed out with myself today. I feel like my husband is going to be grossed out with me too. I'm no longer, and haven't been for a while, anything like my original size in a long time. Now pregnancy is going to make me blow up even more. As if I didn't have enough weight I needed to lose to begin with. I'm still happy to finally be pregnant but I'm depressed at how heavy I am. I haven't seen my parents in two years and when I see them at Christmas I will probably be around 30 pounds heavier than when they saw me last. SO sad...

Just remember all your baby needs is a healthy momma...now is not the time you freak out about the number on the scale as long as you and your doctor are comfortable with your weight, that's all that matters!
	Comment from mrsamanda » Posted Dec. 2, 2013 10:42pm It's so depressing. I already needed/wanted to lose about 60 pounds or more before I got pregnant. I just hope I don't gain more to lose once baby gets here. It's already so hard to lose.
	Comment from megan_wynne » Posted Dec. 2, 2013 7:03pm Oh my gosh, I could totally have written this post!! I have been in the worst binging moods lately! I have eaten like crazy and I feel just disgusting afterwards, but I do it again a few days later. I also have gained so much weight even before I got pregnant and I, like you, am so excited to be pregnant, but so stressed about the amount of weight I have gained. I am trying so hard to hit the gym as often as possible so my weight gain is very minimal!! I'm glad that I'm not the only one that feels this way; it's nice to know that others are dealing with the same issue.

Drink PLENTY of water today and weigh yourself tomorrow morning, when you wake up (for the day, not at 3:00am potty time) and AFTER you've gone potty but BEFORE you eat or drink anything. Second. We just came off of Thanksgiving, where we ALL over eat and have WAY too much salt. Flush your system with some fruits, water and veggies and you'll feel better tomorrow or the day after. I feel your pain. I've gained since the wedding (I'm a stress eater), but I just stay hydrated and that helps me feel good even on bad or bloaty days. Chin up, girlie! :)
