Pregnancy- Worried about your Weight?

Are you afraid that you’re gaining too much weight with your pregnancy?  Does it stress you out to step on the scale at the doctor’s office?  When you’re pregnant the key to keeping your weight in check it to nourish your body with healthy foods (just like you should do when you’re not pregnant!).  Now more than ever it’s important that you eat healthy because you want to nourish your baby too.  Make sure you’re listening to your body and eat when you feel hungry.  You may be more hungry than usual.  This is not the time to diet!  Just chose foods that are healthy.  As long as you eat healthy and continue to exercise, you will lose your pregnancy weight quickly.  Eat cookies and other processed foods in moderation.  And my best advice is DO NOT look at the number on the scale!  Just ask your doctor to tell you if your weight is ok.  Remember, this time is only temporary so keep your focus on nourishing yourself and your baby!
