I am officially full term today, due June 11th and have gained almost 40 lbs. with my pregnancy. It's such a trip to see my body morph, acquire a sweet tooth I never knew existed and stare in awe at pre-preggo pics and appreciate for the first time how slim and sexy I was (and hope to be again soon)! I also run my own business like you and am supposed to be a role model for health and wellness..so I know EXACTLY how you feel right now. We've stepped into a whole new reaity my friend. And in a few months when our bodies have bounced back better than ever, the only part of us that will have stretched and grown to a XXL is our hearts and the new and wondrous love it now holds for our babies and our partners. God Bless You Beautiful Woman. You are now a true Goddess!!! Aloha Maya from Malibu!

You're an inspiration to all of us, to your husband and to your little boy (he just can't verbalize it yet).

I ran in to see if my wife was alright. What did I see? The picture doesn't tell half the story. Let's just say she was in there for 30 minutes. Solo training - zoned out. I looked at Mateo and saw him smiling at his mommy and thought to myself, "I'm so blessed to have M & M in my life." I came home yesterday and heard grunting in the office.

It didn't seem to go fast enough, but truly, the weight will drop off as you nurse and as time passes. Just as you can't control how much you gain during pregnancy (how many of us said, "Oh, we'll just put on the recommended 25 lbs" and ended up weighing more than our partners?), you can't totally control how fast it comes off. Be badass, as I hear you are, but also be a little gentle with yourself. The body does seem to hold on to some of the weight for a while, just to make sure Mateo won't starve in a famine, but you'll be back to badass before you know it. And I know it's not just me--I see those tri muscles in your picture! I really look forward to meeting you.
