Got annoyed today....

So I am not the weight obsessed type but today I got really annoyed, and I guess jealous, of my friend (who is one of the few people who knows I am pregnant at this point) because she has all the sudden decided to be on this health kick, working out and eating salads like a mad woman. Good for her BUT I am annoyed b/c I feel like I am already packing on the pounds, I haven't wanted work out much b/c of headaches, fatigue, and nausea, and I'm like why'd ya have to get all fitness-crazy now?! So I guess the thought of me continuing to get bigger and her getting all fit and slim makes me jealous. Granted, I am gaining weight for a totally awesome reason that I wouldn't trade for the buffest body in the world.....but I guess my female pettiness and hormones are rearing their ugly heads! And I am sure it's also b/c before I found out I was pregnant I was determined to lose 20 lbs. Sigh......

My DH and I got on a huge health kick right before my BFP.  I haven't worked out in like a month and he does almost everyday.  He looks awesome and I just feel fat.  He always reminds me about how my body is awesome because it is carrying our baby, but I still want to punch him in his toned body!

Haha, thanks Amy! Glad I'm not the only one who feels like punching someone!

I was in the SAME boat as you! I seriously was ready to work out -- making my weekly routine, getting meal plans ready, and starting to get motivated. And then I found out I was pregnant! And I am so happy and am thrilled, but a bit bummed I didn't get to start planning all of that stuff I was getting ready... Maybe after baby is born and things stabilize... Hang in there! I'm sure raging hormones are helping with your feelings, too!
