...but not forever.

I am so sick of feeling morning sickness, or rather all-day sickness, and not being able to do anything at all about it. I don't know exactly what's going to happen to my weight but I do know I need my carbs sprinkled more throughout my day rather than all in one punch for now. I am just so so so tired of feeling sick. I am desperate to do something about this.

I just don't know what else to do. I really have to fiddle with my diet to see if it will help. I can't function this way anymore. My CM meals are delicious but they only seem to help the sickness for a few minutes, and after that they seem to make it worse. My stomach feels heavy and crampy and overly full even if the meal is just salad and a piece of cheese.

Can I still come on here and chat? This is only because I'm pregnant. I will be right back on CAD the minute I'm able.

This a time when you can legally indulge a little! Enjoy it and feel better!

Of course you can come whenever you want. I also think it is really great that you want to control your pregnancy weight gain and insulin and all that. There is a (IMHO) good LC program that allows carbs all through the day, always with protein. It is very different from CA plans but also good- it's Protein Power. They have a thread here too.

There are some threads dedicated to pregnancy here, so of course you can still stay!!

Congratulations on your pregnancy! Always eat protein with your whole grain carbs. I followed that simple rule thru my last pregnancy and did very well. I did noticed that I gained 2lbs. every time I ate sugar. So stay away from that!

Good luck! :-)

Hey Mel- I hope you will stick around. You stuck to plan alot longer then I would if I was pg. Kudos to you! Just remember if your feeling out of control you can always go back to CAD. I would think a balanced approach to meals would be best. During my last two pgncies I tried to make sure I had adquate protein with my carbs, and the weight gain was minimal. You will do fine

I hope you do stay and chat Glendora! And i hope that you are able to find an eating pattern that helps with your morning sickness too.

Mel,

You knucklehead, you better stay!

What would it be like here without you?

I thought of the same thing Eno did when I first saw your post. Protein power encourages you to spread your carbs throughout the day, and even if you didn't stick to their carb limit, it might provide some stability.

Glendora--We would absolutely love for you to still come here to chat. You have to do what feels right for you and your baby!
