Weight Un-Conscious

I’m now on my eighth week of pregnancy and boy oh boy, my appetite has never been this crazy! I eat a lot even before but now it’s totally out of control. I’m literally hungry every two hours. That’s the average time for food to metabolize, I know. I can’t help it or else my stomach would growl.

Lately I’m not so much into coffee. I can still drink decaf but it doesn't appeal to my tastebuds like before. Plus it makes me more acidic and nauseous. I eat a lot of bread and sweets, to think that I’m not a dessert person. I have unusual cravings for meat and sometimes whatever I see on TV or mentioned in Facebook by a friend would be my next obsession.

Frankly, this is the first time in my life that I do not care about weight. (Though, once in a while I complain of looking ‘rounder’ than ever!) I just know I have every right to gain all of these excess pounds. I believe it to be a part of this wonderful experience.

And the mister thinks that I’m still beautiful, he always tells me so.
