Pregnant and Plus-Size

I was debating for a while if I should or shouldn't start this blog... It can be difficult to talk about being overweight and it can be even more difficult when you're pregnant.

I have been overweight for as long as I can remember. Of course there were times when I was smaller or even at the top end of the "normal" weight but I was never skinny. I have tried many different things to lose weight and some were more successful than others but nothing has worked for me, yet.
It's not that I wouldn't know how to lose weight it's just the famous "click" that has to happen in your head that somehow just hasn't happened for me yet.  However, I am still constantly trying to lose some weight and live a healthier life. NOT just for me but for my family as well.

During my first pregnancy from beginning till the end I lost about 4 kgs and I was really proud of myself but afterwards I just kind of crashed. Christmas was just around the corner and I was indulging in all the goodness that came with it.

So here I am.  15 weeks pregnant with our second child weighing in at the exact same weight as I did for my first pregnancy (well, at least it's not more)..

I wanna document the journey of being pregnant again and share some thoughts along the way.
