Anyone else eating for two without one?

I keep finding myself gaining a pound or two each month (even though on weight watchers) because when we go out to eat, I think (poorly) "well, if I get pregnant this cycle, what's a slice of pizza going to hurt me"???


Not to mention the constand bloat from the "beautiful" "wonderful" hormones that I will be forever indebted to if this actually works!

Here's to the constand bloat ladies - anyone in the same boat?? (I hope)

I've been eating a lot more now all of a sudden. I think it's me trying to train my body to eat my three meals a day with two small snacks in between. I have to take a few of my pills with food and I don't really eat on a normal schedule so I've been trying to train myself. No weight gain yet but since I gained 30 pounds with my thyroid problem I don't notice another 2 or 3 like I used to.

But what I eat is relatively good for me; chips and salsa, pineapples, broccoli, cauliflower, peaches, etc.

Naw. I'm pretty conscious of my weight. I have relatives who are very obese and their medical plight keeps me focused on doing the right thing.

I've gained weight despite being more conscious of what I eat. I think it's part hormones and part the food I'm eating. I used to live on Lean Cuisines and have recently been trying to cut back on preservatives. I eat healthier, but I take in more calories.
