lost contact with IE for a while but I am back

[Guest guest]

Hi everybody,

Just checking in, to say I had lost contact with IE for a couple

months.

I am 3 months pregnant and food is a big issue. I do IE in a way,

because I have so much food aversions that I don`t feel like eating a

lot of things including all meats, all fish and all cooked veggies. I

basically survive on salads, fruits, pasta, bland stuff, bread and

cheese. I drink tons of Gingerale which used to be a big taboo food

for me, because it is the only thing that remove my nausea. Things

however are getting a little better, I actually feel like eating beef

and chicken lately. So far everything is o.k. with the pregnancy, I

am nervous as hell because I had two previous miscarriages and this

is a high risk pregnancy due to my age (43). I have a tendancy to eat

too much when I am anxious and I am trying to keep in touch with my

hunger, which is hard for me right now. So I am posting and reading

again, in search of inspiration. I gained a very reasonable amount of

weight so far (I have to deal with the ob-gyn weight in -grrrr...)

but I am so terrified because I started this pregnancy overweight and

I can`t imagine myself with 30 more pounds on my body...I caught

myself thinking of all kinds of crazy diets that I could do after

pregnancy but then I think why making myself miserable, I will just

do IE and feel o.k. and happy insteand no matter the weight.

Thanks for listening.

Hi Nat and so glad to hear from you again. Its good news that your

body is settling down with your pregnancy. It must have been horrible

to not feel well and limited in what you could eat. Great to have you

back here and keep us posted on how you are doing. Take care -
