Weight gain

Melanie

I gained a lot of weight being on birth control within the last 2 years. I went from 130-160. After losing 12 pounds I was still upset about my body. I developed a double chin and my arms, which never got big no matter how much I gained, became bigger than they ever were. Don’t even get me started on my stomach.

A month before I got pregnant I was 155, once I found out I was pregnant I was 152, but the bloat was serious! I felt like I was back at 160. I’m now 156 and am almost 17w. I see all these girls around the same time I am that are barley showing and I’m like a whale. 😭😭😭
