I'm new to Wonderslim, in fact, I had never heard of it until my obgyn suggested it to me last week. I am currently pregnant with my 3rd baby (13 weeks) and I gained 98lbs over my past two pregnancies (both boys who are now 3 years old and 18 months old) and my doctor didn't want me to gain anymore weight due to high blood pressure and gestational diabetes. I'm 25, and I'd never been obese until after my pregnancies (a double edged sword since my boys are the light of my world) and I cry almost everyday because I am so close to 300 lbs. My doctor has tweaked the Wonderslim program a little, so I'm getting more cals *mostly from fruits and veggies* so I eat enough calories to keep baby growing and healthy. I am also checking in with him once a week (which you usually don't do until late into the pregnancy) so he is watching me closely and I feel safe and cared for.
I was hopeing I could join this group? You all seem like such wonderful people and are all doing great. I'm not new to 3fc, but I am new to this thread. How has wonderslim worked for you all so far? Any tips or stories? I would love to hear them all. I am a little afraid to try the cocomint shake, just because mint flavor seems to be something my pregnant tummy doesn't like to tolerate. Do you all use water or milk for your shakes? My doctor has recomended I use milk for them because it will give me healthy calories. How has your weight loss been? I cannot wait to get to know everyone better. Have a wonderful Sunday everyone!!!!!!
Yay! I was hoping to see you posting over here! Glad to hear everything is being closely monitored by your doctor.
The cocomint is my second favorite (chocolate being my first). It does not have a strong mint flavor at all to me in fact I would say it's barely noticeable. I hope it works for you. If you can't stomach it you can always exchange it. I have been using water for most of my shakes. I enjoy them a lot more with milk. I am going to be trying half milk and half water this week and if not I will most likely do at least 3 a day with milk. It's whatever works for you. My weight loss is a steady 3lbs a week when I am on plan. The past two weeks I've slipped up quite a bit. Last week I ran out early and the week before was the binge week.
I am slowly getting back on track. I started reading The Beck Diet Solution which is a self help/cognitive therapy book that goes a long with any diet. So far I am loving that and participating in the Beck forums here. I will be getting my new shipment tomorrow. I am hoping for a nice week although it will be stressful bc it's going to be a 50 hour work week.
Have a good night!
