Feeling guilty when eating

KBeall000

For some reason i have become so paranoid on what i eat it's starting to stress me out. I read to much first off and of course everything we eat is bad for us and is giving us cancer (says the internet)...but i can't help but be scarred sometimes when i eat certain foods or when i forget to take my  prenatal when i'm feeling sick... I feel as if i will calm down after my 1st trimester is over with. (I hope so at least) It's when i have the cravings when it makes me feel this way. I was craving microwave popcorn early. I looked it up before making some and of course the news wasn't good and i was all worried while eating it but i had to tell myself. "i'm sure it takes a lot more then 1 bag of half eaten popcorn to cause any real problems" But here i am now feeling like a bad mom to be.

Don't feel bad. Eat as healthy as you can and also enjoy your cravings. It could be worse- you could be force feeding yourself like I do. I can't stand the thought of food right now, so I've been having a hard time eating at all.

I had a whole bag of microwave popcorn last night! Don't feel too bad!

That's how I felt the first one. Nervous all the time reading too much. This time it's a whole different feeling way less stressed.

Its all about balance and portion control.  A little bit wont kill you but eating a ton might make you sick.  Look into air popped!

I have to force feed myself as the nausea is horrible & I don't want to eat anything. When I do have a craving I go with it because who knows if I'll be feeling well enough to eat later
