Yes, what's funny is I lost a whole bunch of weight right before I got pregnant on the Fat Smash Celebrity Fit Club diet and lost 10 lbs the first trimester because of morning sickness. I thought 6 was so little but my doctor isn't worried, I go back today for my monthly and I estimate I'm at about 10 lbs now.

Really, when I was nauseous for me the thought of food made me absolutely sick, some days all I could stomach was an apple. I kept saying if they could put in a diet pill the feeling I had, there would be NO OBESE people in this world. As someone who has a love affair with food this is the one time in my life that I HATED FOOD.

I got for my gestational diabetes test in an hour, wish me luck ladies. The fruit punch drink wasn't bad at all, just a little sweeter than Hawaiian Punch, I drank it very, very cold.

That is my goal too!! I figure if I can keep it under 40 lbs I'll be happy.

I'm 27 weeks and have gained around 18 pounds. I just started to feel a lot better recently (around 23 weeks or so) to eat anything so I didn't really gain that much weight. I'm still trying to eat healthy but I indulge myself here and there because pregnancy is just too hard!!!

I've got everyone beat...LOL! I'm at 31 weeks and have gained 40 lbs so far. I was at 140 to start with, which is about 5 lbs over my ideal weight. I never had any morning sickness to keep me from gaining weight, just ravenously hungry all the time, so I gained a good bit right off the bat.
Thankfully, most of it is in my boobs and belly~ I'm currently in a 38FF bra, so my boobs and belly round the corner before I do. I've always been big-chested, so I knew I was in for it once they started growing.
I had two previous losses, so my DH encouraged me from the beginning to enjoy myself and not worry if I put on a little extra weight. I passed my GD test with no problem, and my BP has averaged to be about 90/60, which is normal for me.
The biggest problem I've had has been the kidney stones and the cankles. The cankles I have under control now, drinking tons of lemon water and keeping them up. They finally are back to normal. The kidney stones I have no control over~ they're like little ticking time bombs, I never know when one may decide to move.
As for the weight gain, yeah, I've put on a little more than ideal, but my baby is healthy, I'm healthy, and I've never had a problem losing weight. I plan to start riding again as soon as I'm able so that should help me get back into shape pretty quick!

I don't think 20 lb at 20 weeks is too bad. You're suppose to gain between 25 and 35 lbs, and so even if you gained a lb a week until the end, you'd only be 5 lbs over.

I gained about 32 lbs during my pregnancy. I know it's hard to believe, but it honestly comes off without a thought, esp. if you are bf'ing.
