    Yes some people can be so insensitive with the weight gain. When I see the Ob I see the midwife first (I work with her also at the local hospital) when I told her my weight yesterday (as I weigh myself and let her know) she said Oh Rachel you haven't! Worst of all is a week before I was almost a kilo heavier as I'd started watching what I eat. So at 21+6wks I was 81 and at 27+6 I was 86 (kilos in 6weeks although less then a wk before I was 87) My aim is to only gain 1kilo FX when I next go in at 32weeks. Gee I hope so anyway. I'd love to stay under 90kilos but there is no way I will with 12weeks to go. Its a nice thought but.

    MM your spag bowl sounds healthy. I have no idea what to eat tonight. I'm working and would love to have meatballs with salad but I don't feel like going to shop for the ingredience. Went to visit my Nan who always has lots of bickies and slices and managed to not eat any except a lamington which I cut into 4 pieces and only had 1/4th of a piece. Then I just got home and had a No fat yogurt. Nan also gave me tomatoes and freshly picked corn so maybe one of those will be on tonights menu.

    Hi girls,

    Lastnight for dinner we had chicken meatballs with lean chicken mince, zuchini and carrot. I browned them in the frying pan and let them simmer in a tomato based sauce and served them with pasta. My boys inhaled them! They were quite yummy A toastie for lunch sounds like a good plan though! Yum. I have no idea about dinner tonight though. Tomorrow is my shopping day, so we are a bit low on ingredients...will have to have a look at get back to you!

    Hi everyone. Thanks so much for your nice comments about my Ob weighing me. I must say though, I probably brought it on myself as originally he asked me what I expected and wanted from the pregnancy/birth and what was I worried about and I stressed I didn't want to put on too much weight. DOH

    Dinner tonight here is crispy noodle wombok salad with chicken - YUMMmmm. I bet I an hungry an hour later though, salads don't seem to fill me.

    Thanks for the tip on that combo at IGA - will def go in search for that.

    Sorry lovely ladies, its been a busy week for me, yet strangely nothing has happened really!! I think my energy has been a little low of late, and today I have a god awful headache to prove it :/
    Ive been incredibly good with my eating since last posting, much to my own surprise!
    Last night for dinner we had a garden salad with Italian dressing and mixed beans with crumbed mushrooms on top, it was so so so yummy! DP needed meat though, so I prepared him some American style BBQ ribs. He promised to save some for me, but didnt, so I hate some pineapple chocolate to punish him! Didn't I just say how proud I was for being good?!?!?! Hmmm, hypocrite???? The night before was a simple soy beef and vege stirfry with chow mein noodles. Still no lentil burgers, depsite my incessant craving for them

    I was weighed last Thursday, and have put on 4kg since my last weigh in at 6-ish weeks. Being weighed helps keep me in check about eating for two, quality not quantity (although I often need to remind myself of this!), but as you can probably tell already, im a little too relaxed at time about this!!!!

    Love and lentils to everyone
