Healthy food and weight gain!?
Ok My husband and I eat TERRIBLY but we are both fairly trim (I have about 5 pds still to lose post baby, my husband is in excellent shape and his metabolism is insane) Anyway I have been feeding my oldest son Gerber Graduate meals and things like that to make sure he is getting all the nutrients he needs. But now it's time for table food and I felt I needed to start eating healthier! (you have to instill those habits in them young!!) So instead of any fries I bought carrot sticks and grilled chicken fingers. I even bought the sandwich meat from the deli and not the processed kind! I switched from white to wheat bread (whole). Instead of hamburgers I made my husband eat grilled tuna much to his dismay. It's only been a week but I have gained 3 pds!! How could this happen? I am still drinking all my water actually exercising MORE and I don't feel as if I am eating more?? Is this even possible?
What a good mom! :thumbs up:
You're absolutely right that you have to start them young. If your kids grow up in a "healthy" home, they don't know any differently. This is how I raised my kids. They love vegetables for example, because that's what they know.
You can begin feeding your son minced chopped foods and wean from the Gerber Graduates. I made my own baby food from steamed adult food whirled in a mini-processor.
You may have gained from extra water weight due to carbs. Or maybe you've added a little extra fat (butter on bread) or a bit larger portions?
It's probably not fat, just fluid or undigested food. If you had been eating less fiber and are now eating more (whole wheat bread), the fiber acts as a "dam" in the colon. Keep eating high fiber food, maybe take a softener like Milk of Magnesia capsules and see if that helps.
