My Usual Weight Issues

So I got on the scale this morning for the first time in a few weeks. I've been afraid to because I'm scared to death of gaining too much weight and I felt like I'd been eating a lot. Which is funny because I'm really not. Half the time just thinking of eating anything makes me want to gag. But the other half of the time I can't eat enough. Weird.

Plus I've been having an extra breakfast most mornings. I usually eat a bowl of cereal in the morning before I go to work. But by about 10:00, I'm starving and I start to feel sick until I eat again. Since I'm dumb and too lazy to pack food to take to work with me, I usually end up at the cafe where I buy a Reduced Calorie Orange Juice (a.k.a. watered down juice) and a plain bagel, toasted, with nothing on it. Not horrible, but it's definitely some extra calories most days.

Anyway, so I finally got brave enough to get on the scale this morning, and I've actually lost another 3 1/2 pounds since the last time I weighed in. Not really want I wanted to do either. Hopefully when I finally get to the doctor, I'll get a better idea of how many calories I should be eating everyday. I'm sure that it's fine for right now, but I just want to do what's healthiest for the baby.

I'm trying a breakfast experiment today. Instead of my regular cereal, I'm choking down a cup of yogurt. It's still healthy, but a lot less calories. That way I won't feel so bad about the bagel that I know I'll wind up getting later. My gag reflex isn't cooperating too well though. I usually love yogurt, but I really have to take my time with it today. I'm almost done though, so hooray!

By the way, Lost was very enjoyable last night. I'm happy that they're getting back to at least having little side stories on the beach. :)
