getting depressed

before getting pregnant I had been losing weight I was just over 200lbs and had lost 12lbs. I'm slowly putting this weight back on and an starting to feel very unhappy with how I look. I realize that with baby I'm going to gain some weight. I'm getting married about a month and a half after baby is born but I feel like I'll still be fat. my fiancé doesn'tseem to want to be intimate anymore either. I feel lost I'm hoping there is a way that I can loose my fat and gain the baby andthat maybe after baby is born it'll be easier to shed the last of the weight. any suggestions ladies?

Ahhh I'm going through the same thing I was 140 lbs now 190 & my bf never touchs me! So a few weeks ago I went shopping (on a budget) & got healthy foods and healthy sneaks for the times you do wanna just eat! And I feel better and I go to the mall as much as I can and walk around not only is it good for you but the baby! Good luck

I had the same problem I lost 30 lbs right before I got pregnant, and I've gained almost all of it back, so discouraging

You can still maintain a healthy weight. You will have to be prepared to put on a bit of weight just keep it healthy,  not burger and softdrink induced :-P if I were you I would walk or swim everyday to maintain muscle tone and recovery after birth quicker and get a healthy diet plan from either your dr or a nutritionist that gives you enough calories and nutrients for a healthy bub and also keeps you trim.  You can do this, just be strict with your lifestyle,  good luck!
