Cleo_II 09/14/22 12:32:08 PM #1:	17 months later but I did it!! I have a few more to lose before Im at my pre-pandemic weight but Im so happy. I dropped about 17 lbs from my highest point. I actually gained 10 lbs after pregnancy before I decided to turn things around and start losing. It may not sound like a lot but Im 52 and a woman with PCOS so it was no easy thing. <cite>Cleo_II posted [p:968027749] in I'm offici... [t:80165137]...</cite> <quote>17 months later but I did it!!

Why did I want to do this again lol fml Its funny because I did so well in my pregnancy I only gained the recommended amount. But I was horribly nauseous most of my pregnancy and the latter half was just too uncomfortable to eat much. So when she was out I started binging. I gained most of my weight after I gave birth. I was so exhausted from a newborn and missed out on food for so long. I also didnt breastfeed so I didnt get the added calorie burn from that. I hope you dont get the nausea because it was a real nightmare for about 20 weeks. <cite>Cleo_II posted [p:968029119] in I'm offici...

Cleo_II 09/14/22 2:24:19 PM #26:	DarkRoast posted... Did you start to feel motherly and emotional or something during pregnancy, but it ain't happening with me so far. I basically just feel more cynical than before, but with the added parasitic organism in my uterus. It felt like a parasite for a good while. I think I felt more towards her when she started moving around. But even that would freak me out. It was like a little chest burster and youd see her making waves across my belly. She also loved to kick me in the same rib, over and over and over. I honestly think she might have cracked it. She was overdue by 11 days and all I could think was GET THIS THING OUT OF ME I didnt feel bonded until I actually held her in my arms. But part of that was also me disassociating because I was always worried something bad could happen after it took so long to get pregnant. But as soon as I heard her first cry I turned into a wailing teary mess with how happy I was. <cite>Cleo_II posted [p:968030224] in I'm offici...

Hes still bad at verbal affirmation. But he shows support by cooking, getting groceries, watching our baby when I want to workout, etc. And he never cooked or did groceries before so I recognize that.
