Last night

I was at my parents house and talking with my mom about my Dr. appt, on Saturday, I was telling her what the Dr. told me to eat not to eat, blah blah blah. Mom got so upset, she goes"They get so parinoid now, back when I had the 5 of you i did nothing different from regular life, and all 5 of you turned out fine! She then continued to talk, and then finally says you know what when you come to my house you eat whatever you want when you want, and that is that! DH was like oooooo no she needs to eat healthy, mom goes listen hear she can do whatever whenever!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I love my mom!!!! So i am going to be normal and not worry about anything anymore!! How do you girls feel? Are you doing normal eating or did you change after finding out you were preggo?

Re: Last night

I just try to eat healthier (more fruits and veggies, stay away from fast food and drink TONS of water)

I do not deprive myself though, if I want something, I will have it

Re: Last night

Ill eat the same way as before but I have added a little more vegetables and am drinking milk cause normally i never do but if i was wendys or pizza im gonna eat it you cant stop me lol. and the same goes for oreos or icecream lol

Re: Last night

I haven't had any alcohol. Not even wine though they say that is OK. I'm just nervous.

I don't have as much tuna as I used to and I haven't had sushi. I do eat cold cuts. I still drink coffee.

I am also seeing a nutritionist, so I am definately eating healthier and not junk food. I can't remember when the last time I had a cookie or "junk" food was. the worst I will do is tortilla chips with salsa.

Re: Last night

The only things I cut back on or eliminated was: I drink less Coke/Pepsi (i was drinking way too much anyway) and I stopped the alcohol - I know a glass of wine is ok every once in awhile and I tried to have one once, but I'm not sure if it's guilt or hormones or what, but it just didn't taste good to me anymore. I'm sure it will taste great again after the baby comes. I also avoid caesar salad (because I'm not sure about the dressing) and cookie dough ice cream. If anything, I've been eating more sweets (brownies, cookies, & ice cream.) I am drinking more water though and I'm trying to have more milk.

Re: Last night

I added more fruit, need to add even more veggies. I admit I grab a cookie here and there as well.
I dont eat fish. Everything else, I don't deprive myself. Drink mostly water or treat myself the the Snapple White Tea (its decaf)..Love it!
My mom and sister are the same way. "Who said you can't?" LOL
I say "I read it"..They tell me "Dont read"..LOL too funny.
Oh, I did cut out soda (except for 1 glass of Sprite) but honeslty, I go for the water instead.

Re: Last night

NO holding back here either!! I eat what I desire and will do it in moderation.

I do try to eat better, more veggies that I normally wouldnt eat often and fruits as well.

Re: Last night

I pretty much at the same, but I didn't eat too bad to begin with. I eat in moderation and don't deprive myself of anything except coffee and alcohol.

Re: Last night

I cut out all alcohol & almost all caffiene, reduced my cold cut and soft cheese intake but I don't deprive myself of any cravings(except alcohol)!
