Yeah, that's what I meant! weighing almost 85 Kg is not a joke to a women in just 30 years of her life. Still every women enjoys this weight at this point of life when she is carrying a life inside.I had been confused all the time for the five whole years of marriage that when I need a little one? Being somebody so ambitious and excelling in my career, the decision of having a baby was more than a challenging one. However, the decision was prompt and was my own; I think every women once in her life desperately wants to be a mother reason either being psychological, emotional or family pressure. In my case, it was my sole desire plus my husband's choice of period.
Escaping my monthly cycle was amusing; and those house tests turning pink bought me both excitement and nervousness. Oh my god, I am at the peak of my career now; what if my capabilities are counted with my maternity leaves? how would I look after being a mother? What will happen to my body?I suffered the blues the several days, still the satisfaction was I opted for a thing and I am suppose to get it on my own!!
I started gaining weight from the very first month; I was 68 Kgs before I was pregnant. I had been exercising already to loose few kilograms which included Cardio and Aerobics. I left the exercises abruptly as soon as I discover being pregnant; which I think added to massive weight gain in my part.
I had seen my friends puking and turning yellow all the time during first trimester of conception but I never had those sickness in turn all I was looking for were food and food. I could eat anything and everything; chicken and fish in large servings, fruits in moderate and dry fruits in small ones. Most gracefully I chose Rice over everything 100% carbohydrate to put on bulk of fats. Every preceding month I enlarged with 3-4 Kgs.
The only workout I opted for was walking, continued with manual house chores. But to my fear at the beginning of second trimester,regular diagnosis revealed that I have marginal low lying placenta which complicated my pregnancy a bit ; now my doctor suggested that I need to have a complete rest and to avoid every kind of exertion related to my body.
I craved for every food and I ate all not forgetting regular doses of rice; continued weight gain was obvious at that point. Also, there is a myth that everyone repeats and believes that the pregnancy is subjected to weight gain and you will loose it after delivery. I accepted the myth and kept on with my high fat rich food. The day before my C-section, I was 96 Kilograms; which was obviously with the weight of my baby and excess water level of my body.
After few months I lost few fats of my body and weighed 89 Kilograms; it was still a matter of concern for me that I didn't lost the desirable amount of weight; again I had been introduced to next myth that you are going to loose weight when your baby would stop the breast feeding. Again I accepted the myth and carried the bulk of 85 Kgs now for these two long years.
My little one turned 2 years old 4 months back and he has stopped having breast milk for more than 5 months now but I am still 85 Kgs. It was not pregnancy that topped up my weight but it was all those unhealthy eating habits and believing in myths such as pregnancy brings you weight which vanishes after it completes.
You could eat healthy and maintain good body weight and shape even in pregnancy and to work over the after delivery body fat, you should work out along with healthy bites of meal.
For myself working over how to work out........
