Finally using an updated pic!

Lookin good

I kinda feel like a hypocrite and kinda like I don't belong as much now. My path has branched off so drastically. No weight change in over a week or more now. I'm still technically obese at 160lbs so I get upset I may never get to goal even after this baby. God has his plans and reasons and as happy and just in awe of this baby i am..I can't help but kinda wish it could have waited a few more months! One oops! I can't wait to see this baby on my us appt but I can scarcely believe this has happened. I'm not sure where I go now. I'm down 53lb since surg. Felt stronger and better than I have in probably almost all of my entire adult life..and now..I'm struggling to keep fluids and foods down even with Zofran. I keep trying to make the gym work and it does help in the mornings.. It's the evenings I seem to get the most unwell. I want to eat anything and nothing! Pregnancy cravings but can't indulge in them. Life sure has taken a weird turn for me. I just wish I felt as human as I felt a few

Weeks ago. Thanks for letting me vent..I know this all is my fault..just still kinda hard.

Hey, I guess I missed the baby news! I am happy for you. My daughter is 25 and she still wishes for a sibling! Your son will be so excited. Like Krystal said, keep us posted so we can see how you progress! Try to eat something, this process is tough, but you can do it for yourself and the baby.

I dropped another size im now in 7s

and a size xsmall scrub pants

OMG girl! You are so small! Looking great!

This was one if the "before" pics. Couldn't figure out how to do side by side yet!

Its normal to be tired and sick the first trimester. I'm sure you will get your energy back soon.

And we want pics

Thanks Krystal! As much as I'm scared about gaining I kinda do want the cute bump!

Lol mama!! Give that girl a sibling :)

My son is shocked for sure. He says he's happy but will never ever change a diaper lol I feel like I'm at a never ending battle with food now. Meats make me deathly ill smelling it cook. No cheese of yogurts settling well...pretty much pickles & saltines are about the settling grace :) I've started taking my prenatals at night and that's helping some with the nausea. 5pm on seems to be the hardest times. I want to eat anything my brain can think of but don't want nothing if that makes sense.

Life has taken a blessed turn for you my friend! Your main job now is to nourish that baby, not worry about having a great body. That will come AFTER baby! You WILL be a success; you just have a different path now. You can make goal after that precious baby is born. How did telling the family go?? Been thinking of you and hope you are well!

And you DO belong! Dont leave us cuz we need you here!
