2 weeks and counting!
Well well well. It has been a while. 40 weeks seems like nothing but it has been a long journey.
I have 2 weeks left until my due date and though I don’t feel like doing much of anything because everything is swollen, I have returned to bodyspace to start easing myself back into the game. The recommended weight gain is avg. 35lbs for a pregnancy, I’ve gained about 50lb. ugh. Wish I could say I enjoyed doing it with ice cream and cake but nope, I ate fairly healthy but it’s just my genetics that has taken over. Sounds like the blame game but it’s true and only a woman would really understand what I am saying.
Anyway, after the baby is born I’ll have my West Indian mother here to cook for a month so I know my diet is out of the window. So I figure the real deal will start in August give or take for breastfeeding sake.
Anyhoo, it’s good to be back…can’t wait to get in the groove again!

I have the same problem genetics, but my journey has been bumpy with depression. I am such a fatty right now. I haven’t been on bodyspace in like forever. I hope you and your little one is doing well. I have 4 more weeks to go! Have a great week.
