An Eventful Pregnancy...

Well, this has been quite an eventful pregnancy... We found out we were pregnant and then found out the due date was April 17, 2009. Then, I strted spotting and went to the ER and found that I was too stressed out. (very long story short there), then went in for a second ultrasound and measured a little larger and was told my due date was now April 13... Interesting... We have quite a healthy baby, but he or she is giving me nausea, and recently adding a little dizziness and tons of food aversions... EEK! I am also having trouble with my new belly... 10 weeks along today and here is a before and after so far:
rachies dress sidebelly at 9 weeks 5 days
Yep, all that belly is no longer able to be sucked in, and it is all me! EEK! Well, I was told that was ok, since I haven't gained any weight and this IS my second pregnancy. My doc isn't concerned about anything anymore... I just look so HUGE to me right now! And this is only the beginning...
I posted more detailed stuff on this website:
Check it out, there are more pics and a couple of ultrasound photos... Enjoy, and I update that more than this right now, so save it to your bookmarks or favorites and check in from time to time! Thanks for reading!

just a little FYI!

Jerremey and I found out we were pregnant and so I will probably not be on here to much. I will check on everyone from time to time though! Best of luck in the coming months, and I WILL BE BACK! I will have to start losing again ocne the baby is born! WOOT! I thought it couldn't happen, and because it has, I am just on top of the world!

Wish I could slide right back into it...

Well, I can tell you what pisses me off... wanting to get back into my old swing of things and losing the weight I gained over the last couple of months, and not having the motivation to do it! UGH! I have shot back up to 278!!! What in the hell! I really, really, really want to get back into going hard core and losing this last weight. I would have figured the thought of being able to have a baby would have done it... if anything, it made me less motivated.
EEK! Someone HELP!!!! What do you do when you start gaining back!? Has anyone here gained anything back? I just don't know what to do! I finally got my promotion back, and will soon start a more stressful job with twice the workday! I am almost positive I will want to just come home and crash everyday! What do I do?!!?!? Any help, motivational hollaring or maybe some helpful inspiration would be VERY helpful!!! I am losing it!

30, weight loss, babies and humble pie...

So, I am turning 30 tomorrow. I have never really sat down to think about it before now that I am having a hard time with this. I have a wonderful husband, a good job, and my own house...
BUT, we also decided to open our home to my in-laws, and a friend of my brother's. And they refuse to leave still... I want to get pregnant and can't, mostly because of my weight, which I all of the sudden 2 months ago stopped losing and started slowly gaining back. I am getting so frustrated with not losing weight, but it is because of my own laziness. It didn't help that for 5 months, I was doing this all alone and no one in my house was helping me, and finally it gets old because everyone goes out to eat, and I was behaivng for a long time, then one day Iwas like 'why can't I have the big fatty bowl of steaming hot fatness?' So I started eating crap! I stopped going to the gym, because when I stop working for July, I seem to go into lazy mode... it is pretty bad, and I went all the way back up to 278... UGH! So, here we go again! I start working again on the 1st of August, and with that will come an easier time of getting back into it! When I am already out during the day, it is easier to go to the gym. So, we shall see!
I have to lose another 40 lbs before I can try to have a baby, and I really do want that more than anyhting now, so I am going to work extra hard on taking care of that...We will see how that goes too...
Anyways, I wanted to let everyone know I am still alive, but not kicking... we will try our best to get back into it over the next week, and if that doesn't work, I will really kick it into high gear when I get back to work!
I hope everyone is doing better than me!

working out still feels good!

Well, it has been a little while since I have worked out and "tried" to lose weight... Close to a month... so sad! BAD Rachie!
Well, tonight I did my BL DVD and jumped on my trampoline. Not for a really long time, but I did the warm up, workout, and about a minute of the cooldown on the DVD, then did the trampoline for 15 minutes... So, I got close to 40 minutes in, and didn't make it to the gym.
My hubby and I are going to make it to the gym tomorrow morning... My tummy hurts right now, so I prolly need a good night's sleep, so I am gonna head out and go to sleepytown...
Best of luck this week everyone! I only have 53 lbs left til we can try for a baby! Wish me luck that it happens sooner than later!

Rachel and Jerremey Carr

Occupation
Location
Rachel: I am a 29 year old Office Specialist for the school district here in sunny Las Vegas! Over the last 7 years, post partum depression got the best of me... I am an emotional eater, so naturally after giving my baby up for adoption at birth I ate myself into a stuper... I thought it would make me feel good. I was a fat child, and a fat teenager. When I was 19, I lost 84 lbs in 5 months, and got to the smallest I had been since grade school (check albums). Since then though, I have gained about 160 lbs. I would like to lose 174 total pounds (from my all time high of 304 lbs) to make it to my goal weight of 130 lbs! I am READY to drop this weight once and for all! Since I also want to have a baby, but have fertility issues too...
Jerremey: I was a big kid growing up, and lost about 50 lbs, shortly before I met Rachel. I gained that back, and then some. I pretty much just started eating whatever I wanted, and now here I am at 340 lbs, and so excited to get rid of this weight!

I have buckets, oodles and even some dabs of these items left! If not, feel free to leave a greeting of some sort! (I will leave you complete creative control) Tongue out
