STS and controlled weight gain thread.

[mrs-s]

Last Friday at 37 weeks is put 11lbs on, most of that being in the last month or so! Hoping to keep it under a stone total weight gain then I'll be similar weight to pregnancy when baby is born! Really not much I can do at this point though x

 

[Mummy2Bslim]

Wow that's fantastic! I'm so jealous!

Lol I need to try harder

X x x

 

[mrs-s]

To be fair though i had hyperemesis in first half of pregnancy and lost 16lbs so all together gained 27lbs but cus I lost it and it's gone back on in diff places like my jeans still do up etc cus I lost weight off my legs and it's stayed off there xx

 

[Mummy2Bslim]

I've said the maximum gain I will be happy with all together is 20lbs so I've got 7lbs to play with but I need to start eating better!

I know I'm set for a huge gain, but I've had no money for fruit and veg just had to eat what's in but I get paid tomorrow. Also had a lot of stress this last week. I hope I haven't gained more than 5 lb. I've gained exactly 2 stone so far and 7 weeks left x

I think you have growth spurt weeks though I've had two separate weeks where I've gained 4lbs each week so far lol

I have been bad the last 2 weeks though. Lack of motivation, concentration and money. I know baby double's in weight from now til she's born but I'm near the end and still only 1 size bigger, where as before with my first, I went up 3 sizes x

 

[Mummy2Bslim]

I went maternity clothes shopping with my mum even though all my clothes still fit lol and I was really chuffed to be in size 16 tops! I'm In 18 trousers but I always have been, my hubby says I have a big bootay lol I say it's child birthing hips!!

My mum put on 4 stone with my sis and 4 stone with me so she is worrying for me, she was only 10 stone starting with my sis and 12 with me but if I put on 4 stone I would end up 20 stone which I don't want.

Hope you can relax a bit now Hun not long left!

Aww hun don't be so hard on yourself! The main thing is that by weighing in you've stayed in control! As soon as baby arrives were all going to be so active the weight will fall off. Our consultant always says that the main thing about weighing in even when you know you've had a gain is that it means you still know where you are and can still be in control and I think it's so true!

Big hugs

I put nearly 5stone on with my first but I pigged and pigged been a lot more careful this time, apart from today I've had chippy for tea then McDonald's on the way home with dh, feel crap for it now though and not looking forward to weigh in but a week left tomorrow so I will make the most of it before I'm on a proper diet again as next few weeks will fly by!

 

[oasis6918]

2lb gain this week, much better than I expected. I'm still not too happy about the numbers on my scales though but only 7 weeks to go x

 

[mrs-s]

2lb gain for me too sure that has something to do with McDonald's AND chippy yesterday as I was sts yesterday!

So 38 weeks pregnant total gain 13lbs !! I am in track for my 1stone total gain though x

 

[oasis6918]

It'll all come off when you have baby no doubt well done x

 

[mrs-s]

Hopefully! I'm going to enjoy myself this week, do our favourite teas, will be eating out at some point too, only a week left I want to make the most of it but at same time I don't want to ruin it for myself and have a big gain x

 

[Cas3]

Well done ladies
