I am 6'1 and 22 1/2 weeks pregnant. Earlier last year, before I was even close to being pregnant (basketball season) I was like 220Ibs. My Ob/Gyn put me on a diet a month 1/2 ago b/c he said I had gained too much weight (8Ibs). I lost a 1Ib. Then I went today and I gained 10 more Ibs!!!! Now I am a total of 284 Ibs. He says that I am at risk for Diabetes. I can't eat potatos, rice, pasta, desserts, or bread! I have struggled with my weight all my life. I have always been big, but I was athletic so the weight didn't show! I also love to eat but because I was active I was able to keep the weight off. Now my activity level has declined. Besides the bulge I still look the same. The weight just keeps going up!!! No I'm not carrying twins, either! But it is torture being pregnant and not being able to eat when I'm hungry! I know he's a doctor and all but do you agree with him? Is he nutts? Do I need to find a new doctor or should I listen and stop being greedy! Help me please!
