I must, I must, reduce my....

WEIGHT! At 20 weeks preggy, I am a whopping 50.7kg! (C almost fainted when he saw the weighing scales at Dr. Tan's clinic)

That's right, I have been putting on too much weight and to be honest, I have been putting on 1kg per week for the past 3 weeks. Hence, a total of 3kg in 3 weeks! The ideal weight gain should be 2kg per month.

C had been warning me not to consume so much food and told me the rate I was eating was horrendous! I will be raveneous and snap at people if I didn't get my food. (Trust me - a hungry preggy woman is an angry woman!)

So the take-away for today's gynae visit is if hungry, eat an apple or a pear or a plum. No shaoji shaorou fan, no sweet stuff, cut down on carbo-laden food.

Dr Tan told me the next time she sees me in one month's time, I can only put on 1kg. That's right, 1kg to be put on in 4 weeks and no longer 1kg per weel. =)

Well, this is a challenge for this mummy to be and I guess I have to go on a fruitty-juicy-healthy diet and aim for this 1kg till my next visit!
