28-12-2008 - HELP!!!!

My mood while writing this blog: Frustrated

---

Hello prego mommies....I need your help. I am almost 24weeks and have recently developed an appetite that would put a cow to shame. I cant stop eating. I know you should take in a few extra calories while pregnant but come on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I consumed a HUGE rib eye steak........FOR BREAKFAST!! I dont even eat steak. Every morning for the past week or so i tell myself, "today im going to be healthy, only eat when im hungry, and lay off the junk." Than after my morning bowl of cereal a feeding frenzy starts and i cant seem to control it. I have been doing great thus far and now im getting scared. This is exactly how it all happend with my first and i ended up gaining 65 lbs. It took me over a year of hard work to lose it just to find out i was pregnant again. I cant gain all of the weight back again. That is not just me being weird either. That was the doctors orders. I had to have my labor stopped a few times with my son and already have some pretty crazy contractions with this one. I also have a low lying placenta that could result in placenta previa. I need to watch my weight in order in hopes of helping my placenta migrate up and fully attatch. I go to the gym 6 days a week and do some cardio but even that will do any good at the rate that i am consuming food. Just was wondering if any of you mommies have tricks up your sleeves in order to help me. Any advice is appriciated! Im willing to try anything. Thank you for listening to my sob story and i look forward to hearing from you all. xoxo Jess

I drink a lot of water and juice and I think it helps. Try to keep fruit around the house too, so when you get hungry you can grab a piece of fruit. Then you won't feel bad for eating junk food. I try my best to keep junk food out of the house too. I hope this will help:)
