    This is my usual diet and it really hasn't changed that much.
    Breakie: Rice bubbles with warm skim milk and a bit of sugar (I am struggling to loose the sugar).
    Morning Tea: Nothing or some McDonalds cookies (my craving I am afraid) and a skim hot chockie.
    Lunch: Vegimite s'wich or salad s'wich or bread and cupa soup (not usually that hungry at lunch).
    Afternon tea: Muslie bar or snack size chockie (sometimes both).
    Dinner: stir fry or chicken and salad or vegies and steak or tuna rissols and veggies (TA chinese once a week, I have the braised chicken and vegies in a tub with boiled rice). Its my treat.

    I am only a shorty too. I am 5f1 and although I weighed 58kg when confirming pregnancy at 4 weeks, I am 11 weeks and was weighed last week at 57kg, but I have not really been sick and I have still been exercising at least twice a week at the gym. I think its just because I really dont eat big meals and I mainly pick all day. I can happy just having bread for lunch most of the time. But I go for the Bakers Delight Low GI bread its great.

    I am eating so much lately.

    I am 5'3 and weighed 54kg about 6 weeks ago - i have no idea if i have put on any weight but i wouldn't be surprised.

    Breakfast: Bowl of hot porridge or cornflakes & 2 pieces of wholegrain toast with jam (gluttony, i know!)
    AM Snack: More toast with jam or just butter AND yoghurt and piece of fruit either banana or apple (sometimes don't have the toast)
    Lunch: Baked beans & cheese and bread, Pie, dinner leftovers or McDonalds
    PM Snack: Piece of fruit or slice of bread, sometimes i have a bowl of porridge!!
    Dinner: Lots of cooked vegies & Meat, Stirfry, pasta etc.
    Evening Snack: Nothing really unless hubby buys chocolate or icecream - maybe once a fortnight.

    Drink: I have one coffee in the morning, maybe a tea or hot milo in the afternoon and another hot milo in the evening. Some water throughout the day - but i don't drink alot. Naughty me!!!!

    My diet is pretty bad at the moment.

    I really need to start making my lunch and bringing it to work so i don't rush off for Macca's when i'm starving at 1pm!

    I'm gonna be a little porker

    Haha to Jellybean01, atleast you admitted to eating Macca's for lunch, i've stayed away for about a week and a half and i never take lunch as i can't stand reheated food so i usually sneak macca's or red rooster (naughty me i know) i dont feel so bad admitting it now though, everyone else who's posted eats so healthy, makes me feel guilty, but i just cant stand to eat salad or pasta everyday, i like the treats in life.
    I had h/made pizza again for lunch today x2 they were so good, i love how my sister made it
    She feeds me lots, i hate cooking lunch, if it was up to me i'd eat toast or pasta (they r quick and easy)

    This is an interesting thread. I am also a bit worried about gaining weight as I seem to have special abilities in that department!! I think I have already put on 2kg since before being pg and I am only 5 weeks tomorrow I haven't changed what I eat all that much but I am now snacking at every morning and afternoon tea and I used to go for hours without food and without feeling hungry. Can't do it anymore. Every 2 hours I get hungry.

    Todays effort:
    breakfast: bowl of cereal (other options lately have been yoghurt and fruit or vegemite on toast or vegemite on crumpets which btw I've never even thought of eating before but it has been appealing this past week so I guess thats one new thing).
    morning tea: A few (2) small 'just nuts' museli bars (they're yum and not too big). (Other options 100g tub of vaalia yoghurt)
    lunch: yoghurt (but not if I have already eaten it). Small 100g tinned tuna on a couple of saladas. A green apple.
    afternoon tea: usually more museli bars or another tin of tuna (plain) but today I felt like an apple so I had a green apple with dried dates when I got home from work.
    dinner: Tonight, left over tomato and red lentil soup. Might have some multigrain toast with it. Other nights commonly its pasta, chicken curry, grilled meat/fish and steamed veg. Last night it was beef stroganoff on rice.
    Dessert: Don't always have it. Maybe 4 times a week. Icecream. Chocolate. Fruit.

    I have stopped drinking coffee. Drink lots of tea though - between 2 and 5 cups per day! Around another 1 to 1.5 litres of water on top. I get thirsty if I go more than a couple of hours without drinking.

    Kirra - that home-made pizza sounds delish! Might have to make some this weekend

    I love hearing what everyone eats everyday! Even though its my job (Im a nutritionist) I still love it! (guess I choose the right profession!)
    Most of u guys sound like u have good diets, but just had to warn everyone they really shouldnt be having coffee everyday, try and just have it every other day instead. Also Kaz76, your diet is really good but are you aware that tuna should really be avoided during pregnancy as it has high levels of mercury? Having a tin once a fortnight is fine but it shouldnt be eaten everyday. Smaller fish or chicken would be better.
    Hope nobody minds me preaching to them! :-)
