I have an NSV today, though it isn't much considering I cannot actively lose much weight right now.

I feel HUGE, having just entered my third trimester of pregnancy and carrying high (measuring at a 31-32 week belly, instead of a 27 week one!), but my underbust measurement is actually one inch LESS than it was at prepregnancy, at 38 inches right now.

When I began this journey at 260 (in Oct '08), my underbust was 46 inches, so it has been a BIG loss through there, and even as I have struggled watching my weight go up the scale and my belly grow it still seems I am actually dropping fat. YAY!

Here's the new belly shot, excuse the uncombed hair and bad bathroom lighting:



I am 219.8 in this picture, so up about nine pounds from my pre-pregnancy. Despite the weight gain I am SO happy that I am still apparently losing some inches

You look beautiful

Awesome!You'll probably lose twice what you gained when you leave the hospital!

You look terrific. Taken' good care of the babe and you.

Nice work! And you will zoom down after delivery-- then you'll REALLY be able to see it!

I certainly hope so, Uber!

Thanks for the compliments, ladies. The reduction in under bust really does make me feel better, considering how gigantic I have been feeling and the soreness that has kept me from working out much. My eating hasn't been as reduced in calories as I'd like, but I still journal every day and try to stick to my budget unless I am genuinely hungry.

Seeing that pay off in a measurement makes all the denial of junk food worth it

Awww, you look beautiful! I loved being pregnant. Take good care of yourself and that precious baby.
