So I've gained 8 pounds and I'm almost 17 weeks. I'm in the military and see random midwives. Today the one I saw counseled me on how I should only gain about 10 pounds my ENTIRE pregnancy and that I'm already there. She gave me diet advice and told me how to amp up my exercise on a stationary bike. I lost over 100 pounds to join the army and had an eating disorder to lose 40 of it because it wouldn't come off. Like I'm fucking livid right now and I'm crying. How the fuck do you tell a pregnant chick to diet and only gain 10 pounds. If baby is 7 that leaves 3 pounds for the placenta, extra water, blood and fat you store. WTF??? I gain weight so easy. In the blink of an eye. I don't know what to.
