i have gone back through some of the thread and i am just gobsmacked that a pregnant woman is told she's fat and will be denied care at a hospital. i cant believe there are limits on these things, this was never even brought up with my first pg and my ob never weighed me once, i asked at the first appt when she didnt weigh me and she said i dont have a set of scales, there is enough pressure on a pregnant woman without weighing her in and tut tutting at her every appt, so as long as you eat healthy i dont care what you weigh. i wonder if she'll be the same this time. i just seriously cant believe that has been put on you girls, im so sorry, i mean i know some of us need a reminder that we're not eating for 2, but there are tactful ways to do this and obviously some caregivers need a few lessons in this area. I would be super peeved if this was said to me.
i think a dietician is a great way to get some good advice, dh is currently waiting for an appt with our local dietician due to his high bp and weight issues so i will have a look through the stuff he brings home and see if i can go along with it just adding some extra fruit and veg for myself, or if i feel i need some help tailoring it, will ask for a referral.
misty i was going to meetings, i told her im pg yesterday so it was my final weigh in. it may be my final final weigh in, i actually dont like the pro points and havent lost a thing since it came in, so im not sure i will go back. but i will spend my pregnancy reading through the material just for some inspiration and to see if maybe i could give it another go once bub arrives. I didnt know they could hold your membership, its never been offered either time ive left for pregnancy.
have been super good today fruit for breaky, salad for lunch, dried apricots for snacks and im going out for anniversary dinner with dh tonight and planning on getting a salad, hope my will power stays with me cos they do awesome wood fired pizzzas where we're going lol
