Hi I'm Kate, I'm a long time 3FC lover but i come and go...I was active here before my wedding a year and a half ago then after the wedding we set in on TTC and I lost track of losing weight and pretty much stabilized my weight during that time. I wasn't quite at goal, had about 10-15 more i wanted to lose but really those are just vanity, not health IMO. So I got pregnant last summer and had a m/c just before 6 weeks. It took another 6 months but I got pregnant again at the beginning of this year and found out just before Valentine's Day. I am now almost 19 weeks and am due just before Halloween. I am obviously not "dieting" at the moment but I am keeping myself in check so i don't go crazy and have 40 lbs of not baby weight to lose...i'd rather make it easier on myself if i can. So I think sticking around here is probably a good idea...at least it will keep my head in the game for the next 21 weeks. I'm ALMOST on the downhill!!

I look forward to meeting you other ladies.

Oh and as of now I have gained probably between 5-7 lbs by my Dr's scale, 4 by mine.

CONGRATS! Those Dr scales are so silly! I wish they used the same scales we use at home!

Welcome and congratulations on your pregnancy! Good job keeping your weight gain in check

yay welcome!
