the nutritionist told me 143 pounds. according to the bmi chart my normal weight range is 122-164 pounds...pretty broad spectrum. i don't want to get as low as 122 i think i'll look gross. i've also thought that the smaller i get now the more room i have when i'm pregnant. that way if i get too skinny now i won't have to worry about losing so much after the baby comes. does that make any sense at all??

I hear you Steph, I keep thinking I need to go lower and lower on the scale too. Heck according to the BMI chart, I can weigh as little as 108 and still be NORMAL, however, I don't think I want to be that small, 18-20 more lbs and I will be toooo skinny. I bought a pair of 4 jeans yesterday (not stretch) and they fit, yes I'm amazed. What goal did your nutritionist set for you? You're so tall (compared to me anyway

), I wish I had some more height.

You know what's funny...my leg doesn't hurt at all! I'm glad to get the stitches out though cuz i'm so ready for a real shower! I'm excited about the weight too!! I'm probably going to change my goal again and go for the one the nutritionist gave me..i haven't decided yet. i can't seem to get happy with my weight it's never low enough! i know that's not good...i figure i've never been small so i'm not sure what to set the goal at.

Ouch Steph, that looks like it hurts, glad you're feeling well, bet you can't wait to get the stitches out. Look at your weight, 5 more lbs, woo hoo, you'll get below that I bet, you are a skinny little thing and so tall. Hugs, Dana
