food for the day

to keep myself accountable...im gonna jot down my foods.

breakfast was frosted mini wheats.

lunch was a breakfast sammich with eggs and ham on a bagel (shouldve gotten egg whites for the protein...but i did need it for other things lol)

dinner, i realized that i somehow now have an aversion to cheese and i ate a sammich and a half, lettuce tomato and turkey :]

it was SO good. i eat only a little extra (300 extra calories are all thats needed per day in a healthy pregnancy) and i use them mostly for snacks and a little larger dinner to get me through the night that im not eating but my baby still needs nutrients.

its hard for people to understand that im not dieting. i eat plenty of calories, all healthy...okay MOST healthy, and im been working on drinking waters, up to a gallon a day.
they think because im pregnant its stupid of me to watch these kinds of things.
but i find it all the more reason.
i shouldnt just eat whatever i want. my daughter does NOT benefit more from a dinner high in fat and calories as opposed to a balanced meal without the additives.
yes i drink soda, but i drink whole soda, so im not putting aspartame in my body.
i drink coffee, usually black, and i try to limit it most days.
i dont eat copious amounts of desserts or sweets. and i try to eat sensibly.

i wish people understood.

i didnt wanna gain 70 lbs with jude.
i dont wanna gain a ton with this one.
i wont diet, i wont go crazy exercising. but pregnancy doesnt give me a pass to be irresponsible...after all...i gained 70 lbs with jude...and he was less than 8. the rest of those lbs were full of water and accountability. for sure :]


i love my little girl. and im giving her healthy and nutrient rich foods to be proud of :]
