Baby role call and weight loss missions

Hey girls!

 Yup I'm the stranger! I wanted to see how many July 2010 babies we have out there or are going to have! Let's hear it!

I also have been seeing in siggys people want to drop a few pounds. How is everyone doing with that, I've been on this WL kick for 3 weeks I'm down 10 pounds so if I can be any motivation I would love to help! I'm down 25 pounds since the wedding!

 Miss you girls!

Re: Baby role call and weight loss missions

  • Jenna!!!!! How have you been! I would love any motivation/tips/advice you can give for weight loss. I just feel like I'm in a rut and need to get in serious shape!
  • DH and I started TTC right away.  After one sad mc in November, we were given the go ahead to keep on trying, and poof, we are now just over 10 wks pg.  We are due 9/11/11.  I had an u/s this morning and saw my lil peanut squirming around =)

  • We already have the baby thing done. I have two kids Josh 12 and Cass-11(on feb 29) from a previous marriage.

    Also, DH and I have a 4 year old together, Jailynn.

    So the baby thing is done.

    The weight thing, I have started the 30 day Shred.  And am on Day9.

    I skipped Fri-Sun and feel very guilty, and am very excited to get back on the wagon when I get home today.

  • no baby for us yet...BUT...I just stopped BC and this is my first month off of it.  We were gonna not try this month to give my body time to regulate but then figured whatever happens happens!  So hopefully I'll have some good news to share soon!!!

     Nice seeing you here, come around more often! 

  • No baby for us yet, we aren't looking to TTC for 3+ years. However, weightloss is needed! I have gained probably 15 lbs since the wedding which is soooo bad! I have a really hectic work schedule right now and once that clears up and I going to lose some weight!

  • Jenna!!!  I'm so glad you came back!!  I'm impressed, down 25 since the wedding!! No baby news hear, although two of my friends at work are prego so I have some major baby fever going on right now.  I think we are going to TTC this summer (fingers crossed!) so I am in the same boat as Jacqui.  I want to loose some weight before we start trying.  DH and I went for our first outside run on the season today which was very hard, but also felt great.  I am looking for motivation too, so I think we can all help each other.

  • No TTC here, at least for a few years.  Want to get DH through most of Dental School first. 

    As for weight loss...I've never really made a goal, but I know I've gained 5-10 pounds since the wedding and would like to take that off.

  • So, since our parents know now, I guess it's time to tell the interwebs....

    DH and I are expecting our first arrival around Oct 16 (or 18?)....We just found out last week and aside from you all (now) only our folks and my SIL know. We aren't telling anyone else (extended family, my little siblings who are 14 & 11, friends) until after my appt on 3/28 because I am insanely paranoid about something happening to our little pumpkin....

    As for weight loss, I lost about 10 lbs post-wedding, but put it back on after I tore up some stuff in my knee and had surgery in december to fix it. So right now I am just trying to maintain, knowing that I won't be expected to gain for a while yet (I'm already up 10 lbs from where I should be!) DH is on WW and loves it - it teaches not just what to eat, but good eating habits and paying attention to portions, etc.

  • No baby here yet. I'd love to TTC  starting in September but DH insists that we wait to TTC until I'm done with school which won't be until May 2012.

    As far as weight loss... I lost so much weight before the wedding (my dress was too big day of b/c i lost more weight in the 2 days between the final fitting and wedding)but have since gained that weight back but nothing more. My mission is to get myself regulated on my medicines again and that should help kick-start things back up.

    Congrats!!!

    No babies for us yet. We wont start TTC until about spring of next year. But like Jacqui and Ashely, I'd like to be in awesome shape before I get pregnant. I want to be one of those cute pregnant ladies who still works out and not a huge whale! The scale says I've only gained about 5 pounds since the wedding but I feel like it's more.

    Starting the beginning of March, I'll be at the gym 5x a week, class 2 days and then doing C25k workouts the other 3. I've been looking for a 5k to run in May so I just need to pick one and register!

  • Congratulations to both BlondeBride123 and wickeesgirl117!!!!  I am so happy for you both, and I hope that your pregnancies go smoothly with no complications and you have a healthy baby!  Enjoy being pregnant!!

    To all of those TTC, I hope that you have success very soon and a happy pregnancy!

    DH and I are expecting our first little one on May 23 :)  We are so excited to meet him and show him off!  We've gotten started on his nursery and have bought his dresser and bookshelf.  Now, we're trying to find a crib and a changing table.

    As for weight loss, I am trying to gain weight right now.  I planned to work out during my pregnancy, but have not so far.  I get winded very easily, and I don't want to push myself.  I do take long walks and watch what I eat, but I plan on waiting until after my son is born to start the heavy exercising again.
