I now weight around 143 pounds. I’m not very shy about announcing it, I’m pregnant after all, hahaha! I started off with a weight of around 120 pounds which means I’ve now gained 22 pounds. So that leaves me with 8 pounds more to gain since I’ve imposed a maximum of 30 pounds for myself for this pregnancy.

As early as now, I look forward to losing all the weight after I give birth. Before giving birth to Mateo, I weighed around 145 pounds and two weeks after giving birth, I was down to around 122 pounds. Even my ob was shocked and was even worried with how fast I lost the weight. I attribute all of it to the persistent breastfeeding and mindless pumping I did during the first few days.

Hopefully this time, I won’t need any of the best weight loss products as well. I guess I should also be thankful to my metabolism. That, coupled with breastfeeding, helped me a lot to lose weight.

I am optimistic that this time I’m going to find it easier since I’ve been running before I got pregnant. I missed it so much that even until now, with my bulging tummy and swollen feet, I’d feel a desire to go running whenever I feel stressed out. So hopefully, I get back to my pre-pregnancy form or better yet, a more physically fit body.
