I went to my doctor yesterday for my check-up and my worst fears came true. I had gained too much weight. In fact between Friday and Monday I had gained an extra 1.5 pounds which brought me to a grand total of 141.5 pounds! The doctor said it was most likely weight gain but that I need to go on a low sodium, low carb diet again to make that the baby doesn’t get too big. Or else she’ll have to perform a CS and sayang naman my childbirthing classes! WAH!
Baby J on the other hand was fine just swimming around and he has a strong heartbeat. He was in the head down position yesterday but who knows how long he’ll stay that way. The guy moves around a lot!
I feel really bad that perhaps I abused the slight acceptance of my doctor to allow a bit of sweets every now and then. I blame it all on frozen yogurt. I was absolutely addicted to the I Love Berries frozen yogurt that pops up every time there’s a Rockwell bazaar. I mean the yogurt itself is good na then you add pieces of cheesecake and banana/mango? Heaven! Pero diba yogurt nga siya so it is healthier?
I’m still on the high protein diet which means I can still eat as much steak as I want avoiding salty sauces. However I’m not too happy with how my body is taking in all that meat. I know it can’t be healthy in the long run but for now that’s what Baby J needs.
Most of all I have to drink more water. I’m avoiding iced tea from now on but since C2 Green only has 10g of sugar I think pwede naman yun. Maawa na kayo sa akin. Hopefully this bloating will subside soon.
