Only 9 1/2 weeks left!!!

I just have to take one day at a time. I think I am doing pretty good. I'm watching carbs but not being too restrictive. I am aiming for about 125 g a day. And of those I am making sure they are good carbs. I bake my own bread so increasing the fiber there is easy. I already grind my own wheat but I can add bran or flax to the mix. I am also doing a superfoods green drink at least twice a day with a tablespoon of chia seeds all mixed into 4 oz of aloe vera juice, 4 oz water and a few drops of stevia. It really doesn't taste that bad and it is super healthy. Those are kinda like my snacks at about 100 calories per serving, 8 grams of fiber and at least 7 grams of protein. Then lots of raw foods. Today for lunch was a bbq onion sandwich with spinach, tomato, and avocado. I love those! I make sure the bbq sauce has no high fructose corn syrup. For dinner willl be a huge green smoothie with added ground flax. I do also have some yogurt for a snack for a quick protein. One day at a time. the next few days are going to be very hard. We are going away for church and it is always hard to say no to pop on the road. But I will try to be strong. I can do it!!!

Only 9 1/2 weeks left until I get to hold this precious little guy! I can't wait! He still doesn't move a whole lot. He moves just enough for me to know he is still alive! All of my other babies were real movers, I guess this one must be more mellow! :0) We'll see about that.
