Weight Watchers and Pregnancy

As soon as I found out I was pregnant, I started looking all over the
web for all kinds of information.

What was a little hard to find info on is what to do if you're on
Weight Watchers and you find out you're pregnant.

I've been on WW since July of 2009 and I had lost 32lbs from then
until the end of February. Having done the program for so long, it's
hard not to imagine following your points. I started at 25 and I'm
almost at 21 now, which works out to around 1100 cals/day.

Needless to say, I'll be stopping the points tracking immediately, but
I'm not sure how to eat now. You're not supposed to gain weight in
your first trimester but a 150lb woman is supposed to take in 2700
calories a day?!?

How the heck am I supposed to double my intake and NOT gain weight?
Granted, over time, I stopped tracking diligently and I'd go (way)
over my points from time to time, but I still have the mentality of
portion control and low cal/low fat foods. Maybe I just start
substituting lower fat items for a fuller fat one?

Anyway, I'll attend my meeting Tuesday and try to talk to the leader
at the end. I understand you're no longer able to attend meetings once
you're pregnant, so I guess you just have to figure it out on your own.

Gotta love being totally abandoned by the system you've grown
accustomed to following. Sigh..

Btw, according to some online calculators, since I started pregnancy
overweight (159lbs) I'm only supposed to get up to around 183lbs by
the end of the pregnancy. We'll see what the doc says.
