Anyone else who needs support with weight control during pregnancy??

[misty]

mmmm... i didn't even think of the dogs, they would likely enjoy it tremendously: still seems like such a shame to give it too them - it is very nice.... I am trying to think of who I could invite around, so i can feed them up, LOL. Might put it in the freezer until I decide what to do - just to make it a bit harder to cave (I would have to defrost it then which is slightly more effort )

Hi girls.

Just joining in here for a little support I have already put on too much weight and its really hard on me as I lost 50kg before I fell pregnant. I work for Weight Watchers aswell so its not a good look and I know all the things im "supposed" to be doing. I am happy to say though, I have out on no weight in 4 weeks My aim is to put on no more weight (so in theroy, im losing weight) or to be a lower weight than I am now when I give birth.

Im having a bad time today... I have no idea what to have for lunch!!! I had eggs yesterday, salad wrap the day before. We go shopping this week, so theres not a huge variety left. Ive got some multigrain bread.. so Im thinking of having some toast with tuna & low fat mayo..??

Hello.
Nice to see a fellow Weight Watcher. ;-)
I am having the same debate with lunch today. I just got the boys a sandwich each, but cann't decide what I should have. I am leaning towards a tuna and salad sandwich myself (just tuna, cheese, lettuce and carrot - because that's all I have in the house).

Thanks for the welcome Good ol Weight Watchers

I did have my tuna toast for lunch, was pretty good actually and has given me a good energy boost. Im about to go cut up some fruit and toss it in a bowl with a spoonful of low fat yogurt I have found, especially now, I need to have morning tea and afternoon tea to stop me snacking on junk food. The gap between breakfast, lunch & tea is too much to handle atm.. is anyone else finding that?

Working tonight, which means Im weighing in aswell. Those scales never fail to make me nervous!!

What did you end up having for lunch misty??

[misty]

Ended up having a tuna cheese and lettuce sandwich - was too lazy to grate the carrot. Unfortunately, I also ended up having some apple pie as well - not good, especially when I looked it up and it was 10 Propoints!! yikes. Lucky I have a really good healthy dinner cooking. The last of the pie is in the freezer.

I know what you mean about weigh ins. Mind you when I know I have been good all week, I usually cann't wait to stand on those scales - it's those weeks where I haven't tracked properly that I feel like avoiding them.

I have had such a 'lazy' day today. Sitting down most of the day, trying to recover from yesterdays activities. At least I'm not stiff and sore any more - but I find when I don't keep busy I am more likely to simply snack all day.

[misty]

Well you girls should be proud of me, I am. i just went and took the rest of the apple pie and fed it to the dogs! I realised that I was just kidding myself about being able to keep it in the freeser and not touch it, so it's gone.

How is everyone else doing???

[peanutter]

not too bad today.

an up'n'go for brekky with a small banana (pricey, but worth it!) then half a sandwich and some soup and juice for lunch, a naughty custard scroll for arvo tea, and sausages with salad for dinner.

bedtime for me. The m/s is so heavily reduced if I pack in a good 9-10 hours per nigh ...


but for healthy and minimal effort, can you stomach those lean cuisine type meals? not the greatest, but the thai curry ones for eg is only 3 points or something... as is the cottage pie WW one...?
