I'm worried n more nervous with this pregnancy than I was with my first. mostly about the horribleness of labor and delivery, my first one I was induced and had no meds besides that mean mean pitocin stuff..
I just want to ad, I lost 20 kilos (up to this week) on my diet and my firstborn was conceived naturally and carried to term safely at my old weight so I have no other Pre existing problems due to weight (that I know of) But for some reason this time around I feel worried about things I didn't really worry about the first time? (I that makes sense to anyone).
You also only require an extra 300 calories once you're in the 2nd trimester
^^ what she said lol...plus water water water!!!! And fiber :)...oatmeal is a great breakfast because it keeps you fuller longer...has fiber and some are made to help control weight...congratulations
Dont worry so much about the calories and more about portion, how many times u eat and eating healthy foods. U should try 6 small meals a day and eat foods that will turn into sugars slower to help maintain ur energy levels. Eat lots of fruit and veggies and keep ur carbs low. When u get hungry or like u need to snack dont go for veggies smotherd in a thick dressing, go light on the dressing even using vinegeretts or olive oil witha touch of garlic will help or simply eat a yogurt with a small hand full of mini wheats. And make sure u can get atleast a half hr of exersize a day and walking is great.
