How much weight did you gain?

Question

I'll be 16 weeks tomorrow and I'm afraid to look at the scale! I lost over 20 lbs before I got pregnant and wanted to lose another 10-15 but found out I was pregnant.  Such a happy surprise but I'm seeing numbers on the scale that I was hoping to never see again.  I gained about 8 in my first trimester and haven't weighed myself in a few weeks but all I know is that my booty is not fitting into my pants anymore.  Anyone in the same boat?

Answer

I was a very active person prior to getting pregnant. I went to the gym about 4 times a week and even ran a 5k when i was 6 months pregnant. When i found out i was pregnant i weighed 135 pounds. When i have birth i was 180, but i choose to breastfeed and lost 32 pounds in the first two week of giving birth to my son (who is a big baby). Breastfeeding burns a ton of calories! Im postive i will be back to my original weight with 2 more months. 😊

Answer

I'm 16 weeks as 3 days. I had my 16 week prenatal appt Tues and I had only gained 1/2 lbs in a month. I've gained 4.2lbs total and I'm not a skinny girl. Not fat just thick. I was dealing with morning sickness the first tri so I think that's why I didn't gain much. My morning sickness is almost completely gone now and my appetite is back. I would contribute my minimal weight gain to switching over to a vegan diet. My fiancé has been a vegan for 5+ years and he looks great for his age. (He's 56). 
We've been together for 6 yrs  and I finally gave in 4 mo ago and I love it. Try easing your way into it and see what happens. I also watch a documentary called "What The Health" on Netflix..... after seeing that I was completely done with animal products.

Answer

I completely understand how you're feeling. When I was pregnant I had to constantly remind myself that the weight is good, so don't be afraid of it! I am 5 feet tall and was 118 when I got pregnant. By 9months I had gained a total of 40 pounds. After I gave birth the wieght started falling off almost immediately. I'm currently 4 months postpartum and weigh 115. I haven't changed my eating or started working out; I'm giving all the credit to God (and maybe breastfeeding lol)!!

I was 17 lbs away from my weight loss goal. When I found out I was pregnant I was 172 and now currently weighing 182. I was overweight with my last child and I'm not trying to go that route again.
