13 pound weight gain...

But the doctors want me to gain another 25-30 because I am pregnant! I am so excited! This is my first child, Todd's first child, and my parent's first grandchild (also my grandmothers first great-grandchild). Everyone is so excited. I am now 11 weeks along, and heading into my second trimester. I am also getting married to Todd on Friday. My life is moving so fast!!! The baby is due the beginning of July. This past July I was just dating and having fun, living life without care... Next July I will be a 25 year old married mother. I can't believe it. I am so excited and couldn't be any happier. I never really had any ambitions to be anything in life other than a mother.

I do hate the fact that I am going to be getting fat--but its worth it. The day before yesterday my pants LITERALLY ripped in half on me when I bent over lol--SO EMBARRASSING. Im starting to show a little bit in the tummy. I have been eating a LOT but mostly healthy. Like I crave the most random things--corn, apples, carrots and turkey wheat wraps from Publix. I've been extremely nauseous, and the only thing that subdues my nausea is eating oddly enough. I eat just a little bit at a time but munch on it all day long.

199.0 lb Lost so far: 36.0 lb.    Still to go: 49.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.
