I use to be 200 pounds & I lost 50 pounds, I'm now up to 166 & it depresses me more then anything because of how hard I worked to lose it but as soon as I pop out my little miracle I'm hitting the gym. Just don't stress it too much, weight gain is normal during pregnancy. You're creating another person :) it'll all be worth it.

For me it really doesn't matter, yes it was hard to lose 40 lbs but for me I rather have my healthy baby and later I can lose weight again
