Help - stretchmarks, on my thighs!

[leftangle]

Don't mind about the appearance but suggests i'm putting on a hell of a lot of extra weight. I have been hungry and eating all the time. I'm 21weeks pg and have always been a bit overweight but healthy (size 14, but short). I never weigh myself. How can I stop eating so much when I'm so hungry? All suggestions welcome

I don't think you should stop eating so much, but perhaps you could eat more healthily, if you feel you are eating less so...? I'm nearly 16 weeks now and thankfully less hungry than I was for the first 13 or so, when I just couldn't stop eating as I felt so sick and hungry. I'm now making an effort to eat more fruit and veg rather than just go for the more fatty things like choc and crisps and biccies that I was having earlier. I think if you're craving certain foods though it's cos you need it. Are you manging to do any exercise? I've been walking quite a bit the last few weeks, and started swimming, though I haven't been for 2 weeks now!! (I've already put on over a stone, but I'm hoping it won't continue at such a fast rate as my appetite has decreased and is almost normal now.)
