Today one of our psuedo-colleagues cornered me at the elevator and has the audacity to ask me how much weight I had gained during this pregnancy.
I wanted to punch her in the face.
First: Who asks that?
Second: The answer? None.
Not an iota.
I've actually dropped 30+ lbs.
Not on purpose. But it certainly puts into perspective how many calories were in those margaritas I was enjoying every Sunday. And sometimes Saturday.
It's actually kind of a sticky issue during this pregnancy.
I've been eating. A lot. I could have sworn that at my last appointment I would have gained back 7-8 pounds of what I had lost. Nope.
Just making better choices because I'm eating for two?
And now I'm getting nagged at the doctor every visit. I know there are worse problems to have than being told by the doctor to eat another 500 calories a day, but it worries me some. I'm under strict doctor's orders to eat more, whether I can or not. I'm worried the baby is measuring small when my ute is measuring 15 months pregnant.
But I literally cannot eat more. I get full in 5 minutes.
I have 3rd trimester morning sickness.
So yesterday we broke out a whole cheesecake.
Here's to gaining?
