Plus-Size Mommas to Be!

Are you actually weighing yourself or just guessing? I lost 19lbs so far and just look at the pic below! so honestly you can't tell by just looking at yourself Btw pre-pregnancy I was 127-128lbs 5'3.5" and the picture on the left was 2days ago at 108lbs

I was considered overweight according to my BMI. When I learned I was pregnant, I took it as a license to eat and I'm not gonna lie, I regret it looking back. My pregnancy wasn't easy because I gained too much weight (53 lbs) and my body didn't cope well. When I was diagnosed with GD, I had to start testing 4 times a day and there was concern about baby's size, etc. Not fun! I'm now pregnant a second time and ive continued to eat normally, making sure I eat when I'm hungry though. I've gained 14 lbs and am over half way. So far, there haven't been any complications and I feel much better than I did with my first. So I think it's fantastic idea to start eating to control your sugars...just make sure to focus on whole foods (don't go the aspartame, Splenda, processed food route). Good luck! You won't regret making the change for you and your future family :)

I have high blood pressure. So I've been totally off a lot of salt and sugar and sodas and I've been eating and drinking so healthy. I lost 6 pounds in 3 weeks. My doctor told me you can still lose weight healthily while pregnant

I'm 235 too and 5'3". We just started TTC our second. I'm gonna try to start eating better now because I had GD with my first. Hopefully I can keep from it with my second. Thinking about trying yoga to get myself back into shape too. 

So im not pregnant yet but I do struggle with weight and am hoping to use a few pounds while ttc. Whats the gest. Diabetes diet? Seems might be worth trying now. Good luck!

I'm 5'5 and I weigh 295. My pregnancy weight was 311. As long as you get the green light, I suggest you walk a little every day. I'm diabetic so I have been on the "diet" for 3 years. Just stay away from carbs, soda and juice. You'll be fine

I'm plus size I'm 243 was 250 before I got pregnant ... my last baby I dropped 50 pounds and it looks like I'm on that same path .. I can't keep it off after 

I'm 19 weeks pregnant with my first (a boy! ). My start weight was 298 lbs at 5'10. A few weeks ago I had acute pancreatitis and had to restrict my food intake and lost 10 lbs. Now I'm back up to 295 lbs. I would definitely like to join!

Pre pregnancy I was 5'9" and 279 lbs I am 29weeks 6days and weigh 293lbs I do have GD and the diet doesn't help with weight loss not like you would think anyways. It focuses on carb intake to manage blood sugar spikes but for me I have been on the diet for 6 weeks and lost 2 lbs

I'm 5'3 , 27 years old my pre pregnancy weight was 260. I'm 25 weeks 3 days pregnant with twins. My current weight is 266. I would like to join
