Re: controlling the weight gain during my pregnancy!
I love your passion!! Keep up the incredible work--especially if your goal is to still compete after the little one arrives!! I've known girls to get into comp shape within several weeks after--heck, my cousin was wearing a Bikini not even 2 weeks after her 2nd little one--and looked amazing!! It just shows why good nutrition and staying active is soooo very important during this time!!

I'm excited to to hear and keep following along with you here:)

LA:)

Re: controlling the weight gain during my pregnancy!
Hi Girl...and welcome;) Looks like you training hard!!!!! I only put on like 12 or 14 lb during my pregnanacy. I was lucky I did not have any cravings..well I craved fruit and vegies. I live din Spain at the time and it was brutally hot so I did not have huge appetite+ they had these amazing farmers markets 2x per week and I would buy trolley of fresh fruit and veg and much like crazy. For protein I ate fish,chicken and a bit of beef and heaps of dairy...

keep at it

Ciao
