I Can Eat Pop Tarts Even Though I’m Pregnant

I was eating a pop tart in the break room before work when one of my coworkers came in and said, “Ooh, that’s not healthy for baby.” No good morning. Nothing.

If her goal was to get me to eat healthier it didn’t work. All her comment did was make me want to eat pop tarts every morning out of spite.

Even when people tell me to do things that are good ideas I don’t like to do them. I like to do good ideas that I came up with myself. Sometimes I’ll have plans to do a really smart thing but then someone else will tell me to do it and then I won’t want to do it anymore, because I don’t want it to the look like they came up with it.

I ate pretty healthy even before I was pregnant and now I eat even healthier. I didn’t used to eat breakfast and for the first few months of my pregnancy I didn’t either because of morning sickness, but I didn’t get called out for that. I stop skipping the most important meal of the day and that’s when I get judged.

My coworker did not know that I’m having gallbladder issues which means I’m supposed to avoid fatty foods and eat smaller meals. So basically I have to do the type of things people do to lose weight, while I’m supposed to be gaining a pound a week. Pop tarts are not super healthy, but they’re not fatty enough to make my gallbladder hurt and they have lots of calories.

People have pointed out that I have not gained much weight yet considering how pregnant I am. This is true. Overall I have not gained…
