Ha!
So really early in the pregancy I gained 5 lbs. I had gained 5 lbs by the time I was 9 weeks pregnant (actually you're only 7 weeks pregnant at the point). I was a little panicky about it but I had to eat often to keep the nausea down.
At my 9 week visit I talked to the midwife about it and she said not to worry. She has seen people plateau when they start feeling better. Well it started that week. I actually lost a little.

I've been hovering between 169 and 170 ever since then. (I'm 14 weeks now) This morning I was down to 168.6. WTH? The only thing I can say is that the nausea isn't as bad but I don't really desire to snack on food. I don't get the good high from eating so I only eat when I can tell that I need to. People have commented that my face looks thinner and if I'm hiding my belly people think I've lost weight. I'm good with that... although from this point on I am supposed to see weight gain every week.

I have not been logging this whole time but I think I need to start. When I don't pay attention to what I eat (ie, logging) I tend to eat mostly carbs and not enough dairy or protein. I think that not having enough protein contributed to having pre-term labor with my last pregancy... I also had low amnionic fluid mid-way because I wasn't drinking enough water. Guess what? I'm not drinking water this time either! It seems to go along with the nausea... no desire to drink water. I do OK with drinking juice etc but I have myself so trained not to drink calories that I won't drink them but when I pour myself a glass of water I just sits there.

Oh and the other concern that shows that I need to focus on my diet AND taking my vitamins is that I keep getting an eye twitch. When my prenatal vitamins ran out I didn't refill them because I have this old bottle of expensive vitamins that I want to use up. The problem? You have to take 6 capsules spread out during the day to get the full dose. I don't do well swallowing vitamins so I was only getting the evening dose. When the twitch started I decided to start taking them three x 2 times a day. That is helping but I still have to force myself to take the early dose. I should have them used up within the week and I'll go back to the prenatal which is only one tablet every night.

Action Plan?
1. I started logging today. I updated my Sparkpeople nutrition tracker to have the right amount of calories and nutrients for pregnancy. I don't really like the Babyfit tracker because it isn't as thorough.
2. I will count all clear liquids in my water intake. I think it's better to be getting the water somehow and not so important the empty calories. I do add just enough juice to flavor the water. Yesterday I made a really weak limeade (with fresh limes)which I was able to get down pretty well.
