I've been eating a lot these past few weeks, not because I want to, but because I have to. Believe it or not, I'm hungry every 2-3 hours and I need more than a snack to be satiated. I've tried not eating and ended up with a stomach so bloated with gas that it took the whole day before I felt slightly 'normal' again.
I'm worried because I have put on a lot of weight. I'm no spring chicken any more and my metabolic rate is on the sluggish side. Prior to the pregnancy, I worked out in the gym quite religiously and together with watching my diet , I could keep my weight and fat level at a more respectable level.
But now... what with all the eating and the nausea, exercise is quite far from my mind. Doing the essentials is already a huge effort. I really can't bear to think about putting on my sports shoes to even go for a walk!
I'll be paying my obstetrician a visit in a couple of days, and being disciplinarian when it comes to diet and exercise, I really dread what he's going to say about my ballooning weight.
Help... anyone?

ReplyDeleteI'd be a miserable companion! I'm hungry all the time but having nausea at the same time is making me a grouch. Besides, I need to lie down after every meal! Trust me when I say that I'm not fun to be around these few weeks! Just ask my kids!
ReplyDeleteI'll ask them when I see them.
