how to avoid gaining to much

[campbell86]

I'm 5'4 146lbs and I'm 5weeks pregnant with my 3rd bby. Both times before I gained way to much and I wrked really hard to lose as much as I did.... so I'm wondering what u are doing to keep your weight gain at an OK #? I am hoping to gain like 20 lbs since I already have a little extra weight I could have lost lol....

To be completely honest, I've ate CRAP so far!!! Like terrible, I'm SO bad right now, hoping it goes away, haha!! I am craving fast food and junk baddd, but I'm trying to limit it! Let yourself have the junk sometimes, but don't eat it all the time! I know how bad cravings can be!!

Omgsh 2lbs in 17weeks I would love tht ... I am going to go stalk up on fruits and veggies. But what about your cravings for bad things? With my 1st 2 I ate up everything I didnt care lol

I also lost some weight before this baby, and have found I'm actually gaining very little! I'm 17w and have gained 2lbs so far. I gained a LOT with both of my kids. If you're eating healthy, and exercising and you gain a lot of weight, that just might be what your body needs to nourish a baby, if not, definitely make sure you're eating smaller portions, more times through the day, healthier meals, and drinking healthy, and exercising!! Hopefully I don't balloon at the end! :(
