I see so many women stressing about their weight

Lauren
Prior to getting pregnant I was a health/fitness nut. I worked out 6 days a week and ate on a very strict diet. Then I got pregnant and exhausted and emotional and nauseous! At first people would comment on my weight in such a rude way. It really offended me and hurt my feelings. I was so upset with how quickly I didn't fit in my clothes. I was even more upset when people would tell me how I looked like I was carrying twins or I must be due much sooner. Somehow I came to my senses. I have a confession I NO LONGER LOOK AT THE SCALE! I go to the doctor and I turn my head. I haven't got on my scale at home in months. My doctor comments on my progress every apt and mentions how my "weight and measurements are right on track". My baby girl is healthy and strong! Now when people say things to me like "how much weight have you gained you look so large" I can honestly tell them I don't care to know. It isn't their business either. Somehow I have come to peace with this. I know I will go full blown health nut again when my baby girl is born after medical clearance but for now we are enjoying this journey, we aren't waking up at 445 am to bike and then doing 40 mins of weights at night. We aren't cutting out sugar, we aren't counting our calories, we are resting. Most importantly we are healthy and happy and WE DONT CARE HOW LARGE YOU THINK WE ARE!! I love you baby girl and I am so thankful you have given me the confidence to love my body regardless of societal stigmas.
