Hmm, weight is still at 125 lbs. This is disconcerting because that means in one week I've gained 3 lbs (which should be all I gain in the first trimester). I know it's probably going to fluctuate, and I don't want to obsess, but i also don't want a situation where I get huge, feel uncomfortable and...

Thank you very much to all of you!!! Anoulie, I'm only 4 weeks along I think (well, in my mind, two weeks, but they count from your period I've heard -- haven't had an appointment yet). Your prayers mean the world to me. I really appreciate it. I feel that everything will be fine, but you never know...

Well, I just updated on the main No S Discussion, but I'll put it here too. I just found out this week I am pregnant. Happy doesn't even begin to describe how I'm feeling, it's the biggest understatement I can think of. I'm freakin' ecstatic!!! I've never felt better either. I'm obviously trying to ...

I just wanted to update this thread with some very positive news. I'M PREGNANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Of course, I'm over the moon. After almost a year and a half of infertility, it's unreal. It's still extremely early on, but felt I should let you know in case anyone who read this thread also dealing wi...

Weight went to 121.5 yesterday and back up to 122.5 today. I've been eating desserts every day, so I want to curb that behaviour. #1: huge smoothie (avocado, spinach, orange, strawberries, banana, cranberry juice) and bowl of cereal w/ whole milk #2: deli meat sandwich, vitamix veg/bean/corn soup #3...

Too much this weekend. 123.5 #1: toast w/ lots of natural peanut butter, bit of low-sugar jelly. Coffee with splash of whole milk and coconut oil (spoonful). #2: spinach salad with strawberries and chicken breast generously tossed with greek dressing; maybe an apple if I'm still hungry #3: beef ribs...

Thanks No BS. Unfortunately, I've been doing badly. Well, I counted calories for a few days and got my weight down to 123 lbs until DH put me in my place and reminded me why I need a lifestyle change, not counting. I ate quite a bit yesterday as I was out and then at someone's house for dinner. My w...

I did badly pretty much all last week. I weighed myself yesterday and still at 126 I couldn't believe I have gained so much weight over this stress. How easy and effortless it used to be to maintain 10 lbs lower. Makes you wonder what happened. ANyways, I did well yesterday eating nothing for breakf...

Thanks KL :D Well, this morning was 126.5. Every day I gain more. I've been binging and flirting with diets and calorie counting and it's just bad. DH told me I spend way too much time on diet sites and waste a lot of time. Can't even say it's not true. I had a realization that I need to start DOING...

Hehe thanks No BS! I'm feeling a bit disappointed this morning. I was absolutely ravenous before dinner. And God bless DH, he was trying to help and tell me not to snack but it irritated the crap out of me. So I snacked secretly because when I'm that hungry I go into another mode, outside of myself....

Hey Eeyore, I'm just below 5'3 and 29 years old. Many years ago, my weight was as high as 145. I regularly stay under 120 now (gained a few recently because of emotional trauma). My point is that I easily was able to accomplish that with No S. I think if you use judgment, and eat fairly healthy, you...

Great story, thank you for sharing. Success stories are by far the #1 thing that gives me hope!!! I feel so happy for your niece. I'm looking forward to another great day with no emotional eating. With two days under my belt, I'm back "down" to 123 (I say it like that, because it still feels like a ...

And I usually don't end up eating half the things I plan hehehe. But here goes... Breakfast will be 2 o...

Thanks KL :) I don't blame you at all for not being able to go to baby showers or the like. At this point, I still believe it's going to happen and I'm not sure if I'm being delusional or what, but that keeps me going, living in this little bubble. I'm starting the injectibles (Gonal F) this cycle, ...

Thanks for your comments guys. It really helps to hear some advice and your experiences. Yesterday went AWFUL. Awful, awful, awful. Weight is up to... gasp... 125. I don't mean to sound petty, but that's a lot for me and a solid ten pound gain. It reminds me how I felt when I carried more weight and...
