Friday, Oct 3 2008 - HOLY MOLY! 11 LBS!
View MAMAMARTINEZ's food & exercise for this day
I had my 22 week OB appt. last week. I gained 11 pounds in one month. That is not a typo. ELEVEN pounds. She was very quick to point out that I am making up for lost time/pounds, and was very supportive and encouraging about my overall weight management goals for this pregnancy. For that, I am thankful. So, I am trying not to freak out. Here is what I need to remember:
1) I am over 1/2 way through this pregnancy, and I have netted an 8 pound gain.
2) This happened with both of my previous pregnancies. I lost a ton of weight in the beginning due to illness, and I made it up in the 5th month.
3) I still weigh 22 pounds less than I did when I got pregnant with my second child.
4) I ate like a crazy person last month, and I can definitely rein that in.
5) I haven't been exercising AT ALL. That needs to change. I am calling my trainer today.
OK, I probably should start logging again, now that I am not throwing up anymore. What a pain! Not much else going on here. My little one is down for a nap, and the 4 year old is at a friend's house playing. We have home church tonight, so I am going to make some muffins and then lay down for about 45 minutes. That's all folks. Have a super weekend!
