Losing It Week 9
Or, otherwise known as Gaining It Week 1.
Yes, I lost a pound last week and I gained a pound this week. I exercised only once this week. I would usually be a tad discouraged about this since I was doing so well, but I’m not!
Wanna know why?
Because I have a good excuse for gaining one pound!
My girls would also like to say something:
So, see? I have a good reason to be gaining weight from now on. I just found out yesterday. If you’ve read my blog for any length of time you know we’ve been trying to conceive for almost 21 months. God answered our prayers in a big way yesterday. I’m just beyond joy and shock. I feel like this is truly a miracle. I’m the type of person that can’t keep being a pregnant a secret for longer than a couple of hours! I get twitchy! So, here I am sharing the news very early on. I trust God wholeheartedly and if anything were to happen I’d want my wonderful friends, family and readers to share in the joy AND the sorrow.
But enough of that morbid talk.
I’ve actually lost weight with my other two pregnancies. After I delivered, I weighed less than when I first started. Let’s hope that’s the case this time!
I do want to continue exercising. I was doing so good with it and getting really consistent. And I know it will be good for me. I’m not going to do any kind of strenuous exercise but I do want stick with this new lifestyle for myself. I want this to be my best pregnancy yet.
I also credit this Losing It challenge to helping me get pregnant! First of all I’ve lost weight and created a healthier lifestyle because of it. I think that may have contributed to better, overall conceiving conditions. All of you have kept me encouraged and accountable. It’s also kept my mind off trying to conceive and excited about weight loss.
THANK YOU!!
I plan to be back next week for the last week of Losing It. I’ll share with you guys on whether or not I’ve exercised and eaten right this coming week. I am truly going to be sad when this challenge is done. I’ve really enjoyed getting to you know ladies and cheering you on in your progress towards your weight loss goals.
So, how was your week??
