My challenge right now is my eating... all of my pregnancies have been the same - once I hit the 2nd trimester, I crave nothing good for me. Pizza, bread, nachos, all things bound to make my stomach (and all other areas) bigger than I want them to be by the time this baby comes!
So far, I've done a better job this pregnancy of controlling it by really trying to manage quantities. But portion management can only go so far. At the end of the day this is just not the kind of food that is going to do the most for me (or the baby, or my long term eating habits), you know?! One of my biggest challenges in turning this pattern around is that I have a really hard time making myself eat what my body is not wanting. I make myself good, yummy salads - and don't have an appetite after about 5 bites.
Any advice on what worked for you in your pregnancy?
