I am pass my morning sickness. But every time I eat shrimp I get sick. It's crazy because I crave for it. I know every pregnancy is different but my first child couldn't stand hot dogs, now I can eat them.
Answer
Your body is telling you you shouldn't eat it! My sister loves coffee, but when pregnant even the smell made her sick. The body knows what's good and bad when you are pregnant, and it's trying to tell you seafood is bad! Also, you are a lot more likely to get food poisioning from seafood, which is especially serious when you are pregnant.
Listen to your body, it knows what it is doing!

If I substitute some vegetarian foods, will it help me lose weight?

I'm not talking about going completely vegetarian, but if I eat tofu or veggie hot dogs or drink soy milk sometimes instead of non-vegetarian things will it help me lose weight?
Answer
My SIL is vegearian, but she is not thin. However, I am vegan and at six feet, 174, I would be at a good weight even if I wasn't 23 weeks pregnant. She eats things that I do not consider healthy-- Special K bars (look at the ingredients) or coffee house bakery muffins for breakfast with Frappuccino (or equivlent) every morning. Sure, the Special K bar is "only" 90 calories, but there is nothing in there which I consider healthy. (Except for whatever whole grains might be hidden in there.) She also eats a lot of processed conventinal cookies, cakes, poato chips, etc. (she thinks that if something is labeled "fat free" it's healthy, or if the chips are "baked" they are healthy). She eats very little fruits and veggies, but when she eats fruit, she only has, a little, say half of a banana or apple, etc. and then slathers it with Nutella or something and calls it healthy and says she has a whole serving of fruit.. (Sometimes, I think she has more Nutella than fruit.) Also, she spends most of her days on a chair in front of the computer or TV. She has a gym membership, but I don't think it gets used much.
It is definately dependant on what you eat. My sister is not vegetarian (my becoming vegan was a decision I came to as an adult), but she eats well, overall. None of the overly fatty fried foods, mostly whole foods and she works out, training for charity marathons. Sure, you could replace a veggie burger or veggie dog for the meat one. However, if you put it on white bread (instead of all natural whole wheat or whole grain), and pair it with potato chips or veggie chips (which are basically the same thing, but just more expensive mainly because of marketing) or French fries and wash it down with a soda, you're really not doing much help. However, if you have the veggie burger on whole wheat bread, with a baked potato and/or other veggies and have water, you're doing good. (The former meal option is what my SIL would eat. I would eat the latter.) Or, my sister would make sure the meat would have as little fat on it as possible, put it on whole wheat bread and probably a few fries or chips, but also have veggies as well. (My sister does not have things like fries and chips daily, but on occasion. For my SIL, it's an almost daily thing.)
I agree with being careful of labeling. Many products claim or imply to be healthy, but they are filled with white flour, artificial colors, artificial flavors, partially hydrogenated oils, etc. Yes, it might be trans fat free, according to the label claim. However, if it contains partially hydrogenated oils, it still has less than .05% of hydrogenated oils. The package might say it has X grams of whole grains it, but the whole grain listing could come after the enriched flour listing. Kellogg's is advertising some of their kids' cereal as having 3 grams of fiber per serving. Yippee. The cereals also have artificial flavors, colors, etc. That is not good enough for my two-year-old daughter, who gets several servings of fruits and veggies a day. (She asks for them. It's what she knows because she's been offered and given real food her entire life, from when I knew I was pregnant with her. The same with this pregnancy.) If I see enriched flour, corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup, partially hydrogenated oils, hydrogenated oils, artificial colors and artificial flavors or anything else or anything that looks as though it was made in a lab by humans and not in nature by God, I don't get it, on the ingredients list, I don't buy it. It's not good enough for me.
Anyway, I hope this has been of some help.
