View BECKAMARIE's food & exercise for this day
I went to the Doctor this afternoon and I got in big trouble. I had gained 30 pounds the first 5 months... which is on the high end but not so bad... so month 6 I decided to reel it in and did not gain an ounce. I was so happy that I did so good!
Today I went and I was up 13 pounds in 3 weeks. Um, not so good. I am thinking it was a weekend of eating out and eating everything in sight! At least some of it anyway... My blood pressure is way up which is totally unusual for me and I was so upset with myself that I cried in the car and went straight to the grocery to get some good food for the weekend and next week's lunches.
No more messing around! And I want to show the Doctor that I know how to do this and it is important to me to do this right. I am so dissapointed in myself and so embarassed.
So there is my update. I have to go back in Monday to get my BP checked again and I hope to shed some of this sodium inflated weight and look less puffy by then. Three days isn't much time though.
Have a good weekend everyone! I don't know about you but I'm sure glad it's Friday!!

Oh sweetie, don't beat yourself up too badly. Stressing out won't lower your BP - and of course you cried on the way home - you're pregnant. (I cried when the flag was raised at a ball game, when my mom kissed me goodbye after a visit, when we saw happy, sad, funny or scary movies - in short, a lot! Just pat Matty on the head (or butt - whichever end is up) and promise both of yourselves to take care of you!

It's hard not to gain baby weight. With my first I gained 46 lbs., 36 with the next two. But it will come off. Just try to drink lots and lots of water and put your feet up as much as possible. Hang in there. This too will pass

Don't beat yourself up. So you've gained a total of 43 pounds, right? That's not too horrible. There are ladies who gain like 80 pounds or more!!! Just rein it in and eat lots of veggies and fruits to take care of little Matty!
