This is a different kind of victory. I'm obese. I was trying to lose weight before this pregnancy but it happened much faster than we expected. So I find myself 18 weeks pregnant, and I haven't gained a pound - yay! (Note: my doctors have asked me to limit my weight gain to no more than 10 pounds - and not gaining is also fine). This happened last pregnancy too - I came out of it 30 pounds lighter than I went in. Except this one has been harder - I've been sick a lot (first baby is in daycare, may god have mercy on my respiratory system) so I can't exercise as much so I've been really focused on not overeating.
Once baby comes I'm going to work hard on losing. I've decided even if it means breastfeeding doesn't work out, it's ok. (Note: I am not looking for opinions on that. Last time breastfeeding made me so damn hungry I gained everything back and my supply still tanked after a few months). I'm going to ride that momentum.
