I'M LOSING IT!!!

Not my mind (I lost it a long time ago, bwahahaha!) but my figure. It’s not because I have unlimited access to the fridge, cupboards and kitchen but because I’m pregnant.

Don’t get me wrong… I’m ecstatic about having a baby. I’m only on my ninth week but I’m already trying to pick out baby names and deciding on the ninangs & ninongs.

But for the longest time, I’ve always been slim. I could pretty much eat whatever I want and not have to worry about blowing up like a blimp (except my face… I have fat cheeks!). If I did gain some weight, I could lose it in about a week or two, at the most. However, lately, I’ve noticed that even though I’ve stayed slim in most places, my tummy’s no longer flat but slightly (okay, okay… a bit more than “slightly”) rounded and my waistline’s expanding. Fat is starting to deposit around my hips. I’m no longer a size 4 but a size 6. The only good thing’s that my boobies are fuller (although they’re as sore as hell!). And I’m not even gorging on food, not unhealthily anyway. My hubby’s banned me from eating sweets (I miss my chocolate!) and snacking on chips (goodbye Lays, goodbye Clover, goodbye Cheetos & Doritos…). Instead I have to eat fruits when I get the munchies and drink water, juice or milk when I’m parched (farewell Coke & Pepsi). For someone who enjoys her junk food, it’s sheer torture. I know it’s the best thing for a mom-to-be but it doesn’t make it any easier. SIGH. And I know I’ll be getting bigger and bigger and bigger in the weeks to come.

Hubby, I need a new wardrobe. ;)
