Week 16
Whew, it’s photo time! I did actually take these on time (yesterday), but had issues getting them formatted the way I prefer. Since my PS problem doesn’t seem to be fading anytime soon, I’ll post anyway.
Current measurements:
I’m pleased with the slow weight gain since week 8. It *almost* (but not quite) makes up for the 11+ pounds I gained from mid-June until early July! WTF was that all about, anyway? For my other measurements, they’re simply staying in check, which is a start. Good, really, if you consider that I barely worked out in the last week.
Photos below the fold:
12 weeks ——————– 16 weeks
I really wish I’d gone ahead and taken photos at 14 weeks — at that point, I was feeling downright SMALL compared to my 12 week pictures. But, after a bout with bronchitis and a trip out of town, I’m feeling about the same. Hey, at least my MIL told me I looked better this past week than I had when I visited in mid-July!
Added: OH.MY.GOD. Huh. For feeling the same and/or smaller, I sure do LOOK big. Ouch.
FWIW, it only looks like your belly is growing. (And that the part you WANT to grow right now:)
hi are you still ttapping? You look very muscular in your leg areas compared to the first photos. I just started ttapping and think i am experiencing fat shift but i don’t know…
Oh, the dreaded fat shift! I got some of that shortly after starting to T-Tapp, and it was just weird to go from an even layer of smooth pudge over my lower abs to a roll just under the belly button instead.
I am still T-Tapping, but I think these photos really don’t do a good job of showing my body and its changes — after looking at it farther, I realize that the angle of the picture (slightly downward) makes my thighs look a bit chubbier also.
What I can tell you — but what I still don’t think quite shows in the pics — is that my waist and upper hips have really started to trim out with Tapping during pregnancy, even as my belly gets bigger. Amazing stuff, T-Tapp is. Good luck with it!
