When I went to the doctor’s office, I was all geared up to get on the scale. I am embracing weight for the first time in my life! I don’t own a scale and typically turn around when being weighed at the doctor’s office. Instead of bemoaning my tragic fate of preggo weight gain I am hugging it fiercely. So at my last appt I hop on the scale and….I have lost a pound since my first visit at 8 weeks pregnant. Here I am at four months and well, this puts the total weight gain at around five pounds. Lost a pound? Really? The doc seems mildly concerned and upon hearing that I am still nauseous after eating prescribes: Gatorade. Yup. It goes down better then water, contains calories, and is low in sugar. Wow…this is awesome! I don’t really like Gatorade but still, this is great!
