Does this make sense ?

Question

Everyone thinks I'm crazy for wanting to lose weight before getting pregnant. I'm currently 25 pounds heavier than I was last year.. I'm about 130 pounds but I'm 4"9.. I don't want to end up being 200 pounds after my second child which may seem shallow but that's just the way I feel. I weigh the same right now as I did the day after I had my son.. (and lost 20 more within 8 months and was the same size as before)  If I gain the same amount of weight / lose the same amount of weight that would put me at like 140 after I have said baby ... All I hear when I'm going to the gym is "idk why your trying to lose weight just to get fat again" it's really pissing me off !

Answer

It's not shallow! Being a healthy weight makes it easier TTC, makes a healthier pregnancy and makes it easier to lose the baby weight. Good for you, don't let anyone make you feel bad about wanting to be healthy!

Answer

I used to think that too, but exercising before and during pregnancy makes it easier to lose the baby weight. As long as you are being healthy about it, it sounds like a great way to
Let out some steam!

Answer

Working out and staying healthier not only helps you get pregnant faster but its helpful during your whole pregnancy. I have the same exact mindset as you. I lost 25lbs since getting married/starting TTC. Then I gained 10 after starting a new job because I change hours and it made it a lot more difficult to work out. I'm just starting to work out again and I'm hoping to lose those 10 lbs again before I get pregnant... But hopefully I get pregnant sooner rather than later! Been TTC for almost a year and a half now. Good luck to you girl!

Answer

Since when is wanting to be healthy shallow?

Do you girl! I wish I had any motivation to work out.
