Doctor Update

So I gained even more weight this past month - a whopping 7 pounds. The doctor was not at all concerned. He predicted that my weight gain will still put me squarely within the American average. Fantastic. I am a lot of things- but average American is not one of them (or so I thought). Seeing and hearing that I was clearly concerned he acknowledged that I may just be more conscientious than most. So what were his recommendations? Overhaul my diet. Forget that what seemed to work just fine for my first two pregnancies because it ain't working now. Instead focus on a low glycemic diet. (Read less cereal) So I am trying. It is really hard because I have never been a low carb eater. I am not a super fan of protein and most vegetables hate me. But I am trying. I will for sure keep everyone posted on how the month goes and what the result is. By 28 weeks I'll also have the glucose tolerance test completed and see if gestational diabetes is at play.
