Gaining weight but for good reason... I'm pregnant! :) Dr says I can keep my low carb way of life, so long as I'm not actively trying to lose weight...and so far Dr is pleased with my weight gain. Of course my son is happy teasing me about gaining back every pound I worked so hard to lose this year. LOL

First, I'm wishing everyone a MERRY CHRISTMAS & Happy New Year!
Secondly, I admit I haven't been online for a bit, and I hope all my online friends understand. This holiday season has been a bit of a shocker for me.

After reaching my weight goal in October, I'd started gaining a little but wasn't too concerned since I'd "cheated" over Thanksgiving and took a break from my light/usual exercise regime. But I was back on track as far as daily eating went in December, even though I continued to gain...a little more... Then I began having spells of "light-headedness, not often but enough to be of concern. I checked blood pressure during one of these spells and my normally low BP (of 90s over 60s) was frighteningly lower at 71 / 44! I went to the doctor...and after a whole host of tests that included blood work, glucose tests, anemia tests, an EKG, and more...the Doctor identified the apparent cause of my troubles.

I'm pregnant!

My only other child turns 17 in less than a month, so this blessing was quite a surprise coming just 3 days before Christmas, but my husband (of 20 years) and I are both shocked and thrilled at the news. And I'm glad to finally know why all of those situps/crunches were doing me no good! LOL

So, for now, my doctor has me under orders that...although I can certainly continue with my low-carb meals as usual...I just need to make sure I'm getting enough water and that I eat a little something at least every 3 hours to keep my blood sugar level throughout the day.

Not unlike my first pregnancy 17 years ago, I've once again completely missed the first trimester with none of the "normal" symptoms showing up. No morning sickness or any of that. (Thank you, Lord! *grin*) Entering my 5th month, I'm due to deliver our little miracle in May. No word yet on if it's a boy or girl, but we do know there's only "one in the oven" so to speak. LOL I'll let you all know more after I find out.

So, again, have a great and safe holiday season, and I'll see you back here online after the start of 2012!

After completely breaking my "low carb eating" patterns over the Thanksgiving holiday, I gained a few lbs. Nothing I'm too worried about. I'm still in the 140s, which is a long way from where I began back in January, so I have plenty to be "thankful" for this holiday season. :)

The test was a success! I'm back down to my lowest weight (since starting this low-carb journey). So I'm very pleased with my test. Having reached my goal, I've been less strict about measuring exact portions, and have not been recording everything on a daily basis, but I'm still opting for low-carb alternatives during meals and snacks a vast majority of the time. And it's paying off. After a slight rebound of a couple pounds for a little while...as of yesterday...I'm back down to 145 (& 8oz LOL), which is where I prefer to be.

145 is much MUCH better than where I was at the start of this year!
I haven't been exercising as much as I'd like, but I hope to change that too, and if I do...who knows! I might drop even lower on the scale. LOL We'll see.
