[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 268554, member: 3907"] Sharon--wow! Fitting into the skinny jeans is a great motivator, especially with summer right around the corner. Glad that you`ve been able to fit in more workouts. Nomad--sorry that stress has been getting to you. Hopefully things will settle down soon and you can get back on track. And how exciting that your son is getting married. ML--don`t lose sight of the fact that a slow steady weight loss is the best road to success. 4 pounds down is a great accomplishment. Don`t undervalue it. KTMom--sorry to hear that you`re under the weather. Sounds nasty. Take care of yourself, and hope the doctor is able to fix you up quickly. Alyssa--I think you and I share the same struggle with the scale numbers. Try to focus on your healthy body and not the scale when you`re working out. If you feel like your heart`s gonna burst, maybe your workout needs to be a bit gentler for a while WFEN--So glad that you`ve been able to get back into an excercise regimen. Being able to run without stopping is great. Very glad that the medications are helping with swelling and pain. Healthy dinners are a great step, and probably helping to moderate any effects from emotional eating. It`s a journey I think I`ve emerged from the deep blue funk I fell into when I saw those dratted numbers on my lab requisitions from the OB-doctor the other day. Thanks to all of you for your supportive words and encouragement. It really helps to put things in perspective. My ability to work out is limited to very gentle stretches, and the occasional walk (well, lumber and stagger, really) around the block at work. I just get winded so easily these days, with the two little gaffers sitting on my lungs. So, I`ve been trying to focus on healthy eating. husband has been an absolute dreamboat, cooking things to try and tempt my appetite, keeping lots of easy snacks in the house, and doing the occasional midnight run to the 24-hour grocery store when a stubborn craving just won`t be satisfied with anything else. In an effort to help me regain body confidence, husband took me shopping to my favourite non-maternity store the other day. He found a beautiful little knit dress and insisted I try it on. Well, it`s very stretchy and it fit like a dream.
