Why I need my Coffee: My Life as His mom

My BMI called me fat!

Ok, so yes I am pregnant and that should explain why my BMI is 28.1 (obese is 29.4 :() ....but what was my excuse 6 months ago or a year ago.  I tried to sell it as baby weight from my first son, but now that he's in school im thinking that excuse is growing a little worn.  Anyway Karen over at www.pediascribe.com has invited us all to join her in the Tales from the scales challenge http://www.talesfromthescales.net/2007/09/the-old-and-the.html  and although i don't want to lose weight at the moment, I do not want to put on the 60 lbs i did last time.  My doc says exercise would be good, and i figure walking is my best bet, I enjoy it and I can take the little one along with me..plus its free.

So here's to a healthy pregnancy.

I hear you, I am just borderline normal and overweight (not pregnant). I am trying to get into the middle of the normal range so that I don't have to worry about my BMI anymore!! I figured my BMI out 3 years ago and that's when I discoverd I was obese at the time and signed up to pay monthly fees at an expensive gym. I got my BMI down to overweight before the gym membership ran out. Now I walk and watch my meal portions. I am hovering between overweight and normal (currently). Good Luck with your pregnancy :).
