One way to ensure i gain way to much weight this pregnancy is NEEDING to eat or i will throw up. I believe that my pregnancy sickness is finally waning, but it comes with stipulations: Eat or Vomit
Its an easy decision right? Eat, or vomit... eat or be completely and utterly miserable whilst also throwing up your stomach fluids.
Its not that easy though. First off, with the busy summer schedule that i have bestowed upon myself, it is all but impossible to be eating all the time. Diapers, swim, boo boo's, messes, nosy children, field trips, cleaning, whining, more diapers. Some where in there i not only have to find time to eat, but also find something to eat(that is an even larger problem, being as i can't stand the sight or smell of most every thing)
There is another caveat. A shallow issue to most, but an important issue to me. I like being skinny. I always gain weight in a weird way for pregnancies and i just don't like the way i look or feel... My face gains weight before anything else and my back(not my butt) gets thicker, and then my everything else gains weight.
Most pregnant women gain enough to fill out their pregnancy clothes in their non pregnant size, and then complain about losing pregnancy weight. Well ladies and gents(or all ladies i guess) i gain enough to fill out my non pregnant sized pregnancy clothes and then go up two sizes by the end (not just because my belly gets bigger) I start off to small for my extra small pregnancy clothes and wind up in a medium by the last month or so. Not only is this bad for my psyche, but also my pocket book... by now, yes i have the sizes to cover my intense weight gain up to the end of my pregnancy... but i also have to have the clothes to cover my weight loss from a size 11 back to a size 2... not as easy on my pocket book.
I knew a lady in college that was quite small like i am(about 15 lbs smaller acutally), and she had 5 kids and she would gain 100 lbs every child!!!! and then lose it all again... that wasn't her being lazy or anything, that was just how her body handled pregnancy... so i am not as bad off as i could be, but me starting the pregnancy off having to EAT constantly to keep myself well enough to function isn't doing myself any good :(
