My Baby bump

I'm 19 weeks pregnant and due on the 25th of June. My goal is to gain as little weight as possible while still eating enough to provide enough nutrition for the little baby girl growing inside of me. So, instead of eating a bowl of lucky charms, I've been eating grapefruit. At work I snack on rice cakes instead of all of the other fattening choices that are in the break room. So far, it's been working. I've gained 6 pounds and I'm almost half way there. Do does that mean I'll only gain 12 pounds! HA, I wish.
BUT... last week clients started coming in saying "oh my, I didn't know you were pregnant" or "HAILEY!, you're pregnant again?!" or "are you pregnant" So... it's obvious that I'm pregnant. No more looking like I ate too much pasta the night before. Oh and today the neighbor said - "wow, your baby is growing fast". I thought she was talking about Avery cause she's a hefty little girl compared to her big sister, but no, she was talking about the baby in my belly. GREAT!
Yes... I know I'm pregnant and I know that I'm going to gain weight, but I have plans that don't involve being fat.
I am in a wedding two weeks before my due date. Not just any wedding either. Joey's brother's wedding. He's the best man, Molly is a flower girl and I'm a bridesmaid. I know I can't really control how big my belly will be, but I'd like to have skinny legs and arms and maybe just a double chin instead of the triple.
I ordered a turbo jam video from Amazon. I've done it once and it was delivered 2 weeks ago. I have got to get into a routine. and... now that I've posted it on my blog I feel like it's official! I am vowing to http://www.haileylada.blogspot.com/ that I will do turbo jam or some type of work out 3 time a week! I'm making a punishment too. If I don't do it three times a week - no computer until I get caught up. THERE! I did it, I said it! It's official!

I have Turbo Jam. I love it! There are some good pregnancy videos. I tried to do those and take walks. I gained 19lbs with Lucas and he weighed 8 lbs 2 oz. I dont think you need to worry. Chasing around Molly and Avery will be a workout!

Okay so I feel terrible that you actually paid money for Turbo Jam when its just with all my other DVD's collecting dust. I totally should have given it you. Sorry!

Also, I don't think you are going to gain a lot... especially with work and running after Molly and Avery. Plus didn't you gave more with Molly and lose it quicker? Just saying :)
