As much as I know I should go to the gym or go for a walk when I get home tonight, I just want to sit with my feet up and go to bed early. I've had a very hectic Monday and Tuesday, my feet are swollen and the thought of dragging myself around the block sounds horrid. I wish I had a walking buddy close by!
I just had an appointment today, where they weighed me for the first time in 6 weeks (I don't have a scale at home). I'm almost 19 weeks and I've gained 17 pounds I complained to H that I've gained too much, but I can't bring myself to tell him how much. So now I'm sitting here eating chocolate chips. Ugh.
I ate a whole box of Girl Scout cookies at work today, and am meeting my BFF at a buffet for dinner. I'm starving, and had a shitty day at work, so apparently I am going to eat my feelings.

Also weight related - mine just started creeping up suddenly in the past two weeks. I know it's because I'm snacking too much on crap, but can't seem to stop myself. Sigh - I guess at least the ten or so pounds I lost right before my BFP were bound to come back, and I know it's okay, but still disheartening to see the numbers.
I am starting to take steps to correct my eating, though. I still have a hard time exercising, though, even though I know it's good and healthy, my other losses have made me gun-shy. Which is stupid, I know.

crap, now i want dessert. I suppose I could make brownies - but I don't REALLY want them sitting in the house where I KNOW I'll eat them all. Because I will. My scale is so jacked up, one day it will tell me I've gained nothing and then 24 hrs later it tells me I put on 7 lbs.. I have no idea what to believe any more.
confession - I told my DH that I was going to sleep in the guest room last night because the new sheets on our bed were too hot... really I just got used to sleeping without him (we've both had colds and since he has to function at work and I'm unemployed for another 3 days we slept in separate beds) and I couldn't handle hearing him breathing.
well damn. i didn't have one, but i'm about to go grocery shopping alone. even DH admits this is a bad idea. i'll report back on what ends up coming home with me!
I was so tired at work today that when my classes finished their work 10 min before the bell rang I just let them go so I could sit in my room and close my eyes for a bit. I could have reviewed more practice problems but they were happy to leave early anyway! I actually said to them "im tired so you can all leave if you want."
I also cannot wait until Monday which is when I'm giving a test so I can just sit all day and essentially do nothing. I'm really becoming quite the bum.
At 37 weeks my doctor told me I've gained too much weight. Really? You wait until I'm almost done?!
And I really wish the next couple weeks fly by. I'm really uncomfortable.
What is the point in telling you that now? Geez!! I'm actually looking forward to my 36 week appointment because I figure they can't harp on me about my weight anymore.

I had a dentist appointment today and right after I left I went to Whole Foods and got 2 Carmelitas. I also plan on eating my left over ice cream cake for dessert tonight. Thanks for mentioning ice cream and cake!!!!

She's like 'I've told you you've gained too much weight, right?' Ummmm no!

Wow! Again, what are you supposed to do with 3 weeks left?

Tell her not to worry -- you plan on losing a good portion of it in 3 weeks.
I'm up 30 pounds. I don't feel like it at all. I tracked my food for a few days and I am perfectly in my target range, and for the most part it is healthy options. The doc didn't say anything at my appointment on Friday.
My belly is kind of big. I am pretty sure at least 25 pounds is in my belly. People today kept commenting that I probably am pregnant with twins, the ultrasounds just don't show it. Gr. It was a bunch of women in the breakroom and I felt trapped. I cried a little, but I also am overtired.
My appetite finally started raging this week, and it brought a sweet tooth. I ate a Snickers bar at lunch and seriously considered going back for another one. Instead I ate cookies when I got home and now H is baking brownies. FOR HIMSELF. He is giddy that all bets are off on junk food in the house.
The Greek yogurt, carrots, and asparagus I ate today counterbalances all this sugar right?
I guess I could confess I've eaten a significant number of samoas since receiving them yesterday. They're so dang fresh!
This is more of a random, but why do my cravings have to be so freaking expensive? I could really go for some fresh crab with drawn butter, but really, lobster would hit the spot, specifically the lobster mac and cheese from Capital Grille. Oh man...
I ate an entire bag of these chips in 24 hours. They are SO GOOD. I really shouldn't buy another bag anytime soon.
This is me and sweet potato chips. Or flavor blasted goldfish. Or homemade Chex muddy buddies. But this is pregnant or not pregnant.
I have really let loose on carbs during pregnancy. :-# I would almost never let myself eat potato chips non-pregnant because I know how it will end LOL.
so i ended up with only a few impulse purchases - frozen cream puffs, smoked gouda cheese and some bean and bacon soup. not bad i don't think. i did spend 5 minutes in the ice cream aisle, but ultimately couldn't make a decision so just left with nothing. i am sure i will regret that tomorrow.
