Can someone boost me back on the wagon?

I have fallen off the healthy eating wagon. I've been using pregnancy as an excuse to indulge a bit too much. I haven't thrown complete caution to the wind, but I definately have not been caring too much. I'm sure part of it is finally being able to eat again any time of the day and not feel sick!

I need to get back on the wagon though. I am on track to gain just 10lbs in the first 20 weeks of pregnancy, and I want to keep on that track and have a healthier gain with this pregnancy. I realize as the baby's growth really takes off soon, I am looking at another 15-20lbs to gain. But if I'm not careful, it will be more.

I checked out www.mypyramid.com for their guidelines on pregnancy eating. First of all, it allotted me 2400 calories. Good Lord! That definately is more than I need to eat. It also recommended that I have 3 cups of vegetables a day, 3 cups of milk and 6.5 cups of meat. SO much food in my opinion. But gives me a good idea of what sort of balance I should have.

So, if someone could please slow the wagon down and give me a little boost--I need to get back on!

I've almost eaten 2 half gallons of Coldstone ice cream in the last 24 hours... your wagon is still far behind me!

Good Lord! 6.5 servings of MEAT! Good luck with that! :) Maybe you can substitute ice cream for that :) You're doing great, by the way!
