Food. Food. Food.

Literally all that is on my mind. I am only 6 weeks and I feel like I could always eat. And then eat. Some. More. I read that you can count calories during your first two trimesters- as long as you're eating enough calories to maintain your weight.
I'm so nervous about the whole gaining weight part of preg. I lost 52 pounds 2 years ago and I am thinking about once this baby is out of me. In fact, one reason we chose to wait a while to try to get preg was because I didn't want to gain all the weight back.

I have already gained a few pounds. I am trying so hard to eat the "right" food but something fried- or covered in gravy- sounds far better than the "right" thing.

Anyone else out there in a similar situation???

I'm TERRIFIED of gaining weight. My DH was always very fit and active so the last thing I want to do is become his whale of a baby-mama. Since we got married, we have both slacked on our eating and exercising routines...ALOT. So we are making an extra effort to go for walks and today went for a jog (kill me)....but I'm definitely becoming very calorie-conscious now bc the weight will be much harder to shed in 9 months than it is to pack on!

Yes- exactly!
