Clothes issues, hormone issues and scale issues....
Well, the jeans are fitting anymore. I have 3 sizes in the house. I have my cherished size 12 jeans. Oh sweet heaven those jeans brought me joy and tears of happiness. They were always a bit tight in the waist but no issues. They were the first to go. No big deal - I have several pairs of 14 that fit comfy - even a little loose in the waist. Yeah, those were painful to try to button. I had one standby pair of 16s. When dieting, I pretty much skipped 16s and only had one pair. Even those badboys are tight and snug. I knew this would happen. I wasn't scared of it happening. I just didn't think it would happen so soon. I thought I had about 10 more weeks. Naive! I went online and started shopping for *gasp* maternity clothes. Luckily, my favorite brand of gap jeans come in maternity so I ordered those. I also got a maternity swimsuit because I vow that I will be exercising when this nausea goes away. I can't be this out of shape when I go to deliver. The scale is up 7.5 lbs. I know some of it is baby weight but the other part is that the only food that goes down good and doesn't make me sick is JUNK food. So, hopefully, it will even out when the nausea goes away. Yes, I am also hormonal. I feel myself tearing up at things on TV, things at work are pissing me off more than normal. Poor Mark - watch out. At least it didn't start until now!
