morning sickness
I threw up in someone's garden this morning. Right in front of the Starbucks on 16th and U. My first session of public vomitting actually went ok. I kept telling myself, 'don't get emotionally involved.' And I didn't. I just stood there throwing up over the fence into the garden. Jeff also dealt with it really well too. I didn't even turn around and go home. Even though I was resolved to remain detached from the fact that I was vomitting in public, I still cried a little, which was kinda pretty. Warm tears on cold cheeks.
********************************************************* what are you eating?
I have had two email questions about what I am eating now that I am pregnant. When I was on the weight loss journey, I basically had three main things that I ate: sushi, Subway and lean quizine meals. I also ate lots of fruit and stuff. Now that I am pregnant, obviously I can't eat raw sushi anymore and the frozen meals have too much sodium in them. And subway makes me vomit now. I have found that if I eat all day long, I won't throw up... thus, I sit here at my desk with something to eat at all times. This is hard on a girl like me who has been doing the exact opposite for a year or so.
Here is what I have eaten today:
- gingerale
- banana muffin
- cheerios
- babybel mini cheedar cheese
- 4 saltines
- water
- ginergale
- more cheerios
- au bon pain grilled chicken sandwich with cheedar cheese, cucumbers and field greens and sundried tomato spread on rosemary bread
- an orange (which is messy!)
- some cashews
- almonds
- more water
that is it so far. I will most likely get a burger and salad for dinner and a fruit smoothie. It is wayyyyy too much food. But at least I think I am making ok choices. NOt enough legumes or veggies... but veggies are turning my stomach right now.
Well, I know that was exciting! ;)
