oh my lovely im sorry your feeling down over this. I am very frustrated with my weight I have been on a diet since i can remember and this time last year I ran a half marathon so i was pretty fit. This year im knackered, 1bad back after a car accident at 13 weeks (whip lash) 1 and 1/2 stones hearvier and feeling massive.
I had a ball to go to last night and I had to find a dress i ended up buying a size 18 (2 to 3 sizes bigger then I actually am) as I could not find a mat dress that was suitable. The lady in the shop told me to buy some spanx (support pants to hold my belly in) i kindly told her that im nearly five months pg and that would not be possible. I left feelling very depressed as i have no control over the weight or my shape and according to that shop assistant I just look fat not pg!!! BUT i did look good last night so it was not all bad

I suppose what im getting at that its normal that you have these feelings and to try and look after yourself for the sake of your baby. Just think in four months time we can make a start at getting back in shape.
If you wanna chat pm me. Take care

oh i know how you feel honey, i'v struggled with weight all my life i have polycistic ovaries and my weight ballooned out and the only way i lost was to starve myself and i became hospitleized. But knowing i wanted a baby i got through it and now i'm pregnant i cant be on my special diet i was given to keep my weight under control and i'm ballooning out again
it goes to my hips and bum too and it jiggles when i walk
dont worry though its not forever, and being strong will give you your beautifull, healthy baby
if you ever feel you need to talk or your getting those urges, feel free to pm me

............ its really getting me down !
I have been trying my best not to eat to much rubbish.... i admit there might be the odd day i have thought stuff it and eaten crap !!!!BUT generally i have eaten nooooooo more than usual!
I know im pregnant and they you get bigger but not my legs ... bum and hips.. I looked in the mirrow today after getting out of the shower and i could have cried.
I used to be a bit obsessive with foood ... when i was 18.. being sick and so forth but am totally over that now of course but i keep getting these horible urges to throw up after i have eaten! of course i would not tho !!! I think i have only put on about 7lbs... have not weighed this week!
I know all that counts is that my baby is healthy but just feel like a BIG LUMP!
My legs actually wobble.... like water ballons ! :-(
Going on holiday in 7 days and just feel like curling up under a towel the whole time
Sorry to rant ... really stupid i know and hardly a patch on some peoples worries

ohhhhhhhhh thanks ..
not the only one which is nice... i sat there today as we were all at lunch ( we all go out every sunday as a big family ) and had a chicken salad sandwich whilst they all tucked into sunday dinner with all the tr***s and coli cheese!! :-(
i think my main point was is this more water than fat ??? as i have not actually eaten that much more ??
spent the rest of the day at mil and fil's so that was lovely ... must have felt a little better by about 6 as i had 2 digestives ... he he
thanks again
