How are you eating healthy ?

Question

I feel like everyone is like eat eat eat - and bam 5 lbs and I'm only 13+4 weeks . No more peer pressure ! Grr. How is everyone else doing ?

Answer

I eat somewhat healthy. I mostly eat foods like eggs, bread, cheese, spinach, fruit and mashed potatoes lol but I give into the sweet cravings like donut holes and cookies or savory ones like chips...I think it balances out because I don't drink soda and rarely drink juice, but I do drink a lot of water.

Answer

It is hard having everyone shove every piece of food in your face telling you you're eating for two.. You're not! I've just been eating and drinking water when I'm hungry or thirsty, thankfully my cravings aren't horrible so I easily turn down all the offers for donuts and candy that people think I have to have now that I'm pregnant!! I say eat as balanced of a diet as you can and politely tell everyone that you want to gain a healthy amount of weight while avoiding the excess, and exercise! I walk a ton and lift weights 3-4 days a week. I'm almost 17 weeks and I've gained 6 lbs and my midwife says I'm doing great. Everyone's body type is different!

Answer

I never had super healthy eating habits, and it hasn't really changed much, I still eat only when I'm hungry, and no cravings so that's good!  Luckily people aren't shoving food in my face. I just added more water and fruits to my prepregnancy diet..at 17.5 weeks, and I've gained 12 pounds so far, dr told me to gain 25-30lb.?
