Re: How to not gain extra weight during pregnancy?
Great Question! Well, during the day I eat regular breakfast like toast-eggs, pancakes (store bought), or toast-butter and drink tea. For lunch and diner, I eat normal desi saalan with 2 pita rotis or handmade roti some days. I snack on fruit here and there during the day. I don’t feel like eating these things at all (they make me nauseous). Actually, during the day I’m so nauseous I don’t even feel like looking at anything but I stuff it down for the sake of the baby.
The night is the whole another story. I crave the stuff that I don’t even feel like eating during the day. I crave stuff like cookies, brownies, ice-cream, pizza, chocolates, candy, chips, etc. I have already made 2 trips to taco-bell in the past two nights at 3 AM. After taco-bell, I went to walmart to get brownies :(. I make better tacos/burritos/brownies at home but for some reason the outside fast food and junk seems more attracting right now. It also doesn’t help that I’m at my mom’s and she’s the type who thinks I need to “eat for two” so, she just tells me keep eating don’t worry about the weight, it’ll come off :/.
