27 weeks pregnant...
Hello everyone! I am 27 weeks pregnant with our first child. Her name will be Addison & we're so thrilled. Before I got pregnant (planned), I was 166lbs. I wish I would have low-carbed it & lost weight before, but woulda shoulda! Anyway, I am now 191.2 & really trying to hold on to that number...or at least until my next Dr. apt Feb. 5th. Thanksgiving was a horrible time for me & I was craving milk, so I drank like a gallon in 3 days, that really helped my 10 pound weight gain for that month. If it hadn't been for that bad one, I'd be in fair shape, I think.
So, in 80 some odd days I'll be delivering & have no idea what to expect weight wise. I'm obviously not going to bring in pre-pregnancy jeans or anything, but what were your weight loss realities? I know everybody is different, but I'd like an idea. How much did you lose within those 6 weeks & what made it possible to lose?
Also, I WILL be breastfeeding, no matter what, but know that LCing would bring the best results. Has anyone had good luck with this?
In the past, with LC, I lose about 20 pounds in one month. Being truly strict of course.
