Boo.. I know this has happened to a lot of fellow bumpies but my H is almost 6 4! Ugh. I feel like a hef. My plan is to start weight watchers and breast feed after LO is here. I also want to start walking as a family. Not a good day as far as the news of my weight
Re: Officially weigh as much as my H
Try not to look at the scale at this point.
I like your weight loss plan. With DD, I lost all of the weight with walking and breastfeeding.

Me too! Well, 199 but close enough. I'm 5'10" but still...! I thought I was going to start crying at the doctor's office
FYI: not all women lose weight breast feeding. I am one of those. In fact, I had to keep the weight on to keep up my supply. Every time I lost a few pounds, my supply would crash. I had to eat and drink water soooooo much. It's frustrating, but I kept the perspective that I had the rest of my life to lose weight, and just this year of breast feeding- to me that was worth it.
Oh, and I've outweighed my husband since I was pregnant with my son (who's 2 now).

This was one of my great fears, as silly as that sounds. My husband still has about 20 lbs on me, so I think I'll be okay. Considering that he is 6'1'' and I'm 5'3'', it's a pretty narrow margin though
I don't let him look at the scale when we are at the doctors. He waits in the exam room
Yeah, this is pretty much me too. I was about 170 pp, and even though I have struggled with weight my whole life I never saw the dreaded 200 on the scale. I remember the day it happened. Now I'm about 18 lbs past that and feel like I'm going to be on the Biggest Loser soon.
Next time I'm also going to watch it more and add more exercise. I've been so paranoid about everything as a FTM I didn't really want to risk pushing it too hard at the gym, and started just walking. Really hoping it just kind of disappears after the birth like it does for some people...
