It Turned Blue!!!
Posted by desertmama on October 8th, 2007
Okay, I know I’ve been MIA for a bit now….but I’ve been sick. And, it turns out, most of the sick has been morning sickness (a completely stupid phrase since in my case it was “all day long and all night long sickness” but I’ll go with the traditional phrase). I’m finally through most of it only to have gotten hit with the flu for the last week or so.
I’m finally feeling like I’ll survive the pregnancy and get over the flu too.
My WW Leader said I need to add 10 points a day now. And, while that sounds great, I find that it is overwhelming. It is too tempting to eat junk with those points and not spend them on something good for me. So, I’m adding a couple of little boxes on my journals to add another dairy (that’s 4 a day — 8 points at a minimum!!!) and a couple more to my fruits and veggies. Plus, trying to make sure that I have at least 3 lean proteins a day.

WOOHOO congrats! That is 3 of my fellow WW bloggers who are now PG. Hmmm, can I have some of the water please (shhh) :D.
Glad to hear what your WW leader said, I’ve been wondering about that. I’m so happy for you!

WOW…..Somethings definately in the WATER!! Think I will stick to my Crystal Light….LOL
Congrats on being “blue”. I am sure things will go along fine and you will have a healthy and safe pregnacy!!
Don’t worry about gaining too much, do what you have to do to have a healthy baby, thats whats most important right!

Pass the water my way too! Congratulations! I am interested to hear the recommendations for safely following WW during your pregnancy. I thought you had to quit, too? I know you can’t lose weight, but I’d love to think I can somewhat “maintain” (Since I’m still overweight) and only put on a minimum amount of weight. I guess I don’t need to worry about it until it happens though, but I’m always gathering info for *when*
I’m so happy for you! Congrats on your accomplishment and this new twist!

Wishing you a healthy pregnancy!!

I just ran across your blog and did a double-take because it seems that whatever is in the water has also made its way to me! I found out this morning, so I’m still in complete shock… and I was only 4.5 lbs from my goal weight! Anyway, congrats on your pregnancy!! Do you have any info on maintaining a healthy weight on WW while you’re pregnant? I gained 60lbs with each of my kids and I DON’T want to do that again. Other than sticking to the “good foods” I’m completely in the dark!
All the best to you!
