That's a very interesting question to me b/c I have just found out the same!! Sorry I've been away so long guys... I didn't want to make the announcement until I knew for sure but it is confirmed, I am expecting... SURPRISE!!! My due date is July 3rd. We are all very very happy and feel truly blessed even though it was not planned for this year. I have struggled with PCOS and infertility for many years since having my daughter 12 years ago and losing weight was the key to turning it all around. Thank goodness for MRC and all of you! So taytay, to answer your question, yes, they will put your program on hold for you. I happened to be out of program when I found out 2 weeks ago but they said if I choose to come back after delivery they will let me rejoin without the original joining fees whatever that sums up to. Anyways, Congratulations to you! Keep us updated on your progress :0) As for myself, I have put myself into maintenance... doing pretty good with that and maintaining at 186-187. MRC was not very forthcoming or helpful in suggestions for maintenance obviously b/c I told them the news. They basically said just eat sensibly. I basically nixed the protein drinks (avoiding aspartame) and added in an extra starch in the am as well as a cup of skim milk, lunch is the same, Dinner is the same, extra snack of carbmaster yogurt (80 cal, 1.5 g fat, 6 carbs, 13 g protein) and an extra starch with 2 tbsp of peanut butter at night. This seems to be doing the job. I've had a few other indulgences here and there but on those days I just skip the snack and amazingly I've stayed the same! I have an Ultrasound today, hoping for more good news :0). I'm really hoping I keep this one under check and will not go crazy and gain 65 lbs like I did with the last one! I plan to continue exercising and check in with all of you. That should keep me focused hopefully! Anyways, If you see me/know me on facebook, I have not formally announced this yet so I'm not posting it on FB currently but I just couldn't keep avoiding all of you my good friends at 3FC! Wishing all of you the best as we near the holidays... stick with it, It's worth it!!
