what is your eating schedule?

apiffanynow · May 2011

Good morning Ladies...I have come to the conclusion that I must not be eating enough food and snacks on a daily basis. I get this feeling like all the life has been sucked out of me and that I may pass out at any moment. Problem is I'm just not hungry most of time. Last night I had yogurt, pear, and a bottled water as a late night snack... then I instantly felt better. I guess I need to be on a eating schedule to keep my energy up throughout the day and at night. What is your eating schedule?

first tri (from what I have read) is when your body works the hardest compared to 2nd tri at least, because your blood and nutrients are rushing to your uterus to provide nourishment for the baby and forming the placenta etc. so..you are right the feel famished! lol I wake up starving! Here is a typical day so far (just since sunday, got my bfp tuesday)

8:00/8:30-breakfast, 11:00-snack, 12:30-lunch, 2:30/3:00-snack (this is when I start to feel DEAD tired, like its 3 am), 6:00/6:30-dinner, 8:30/9-snack...

I have just noticed it getting to be this way...it keeps me from feeling insane from hunger!! I usually nosh on fruits, veggies, almonds, granola bars, fish, chicken, beef, pita chips, whole grain tortillas or bread, water, sweet tea etc...I was a pretty good eater pre-bfp so my bfp just makes me eat that much more healthy...GL!

Same here - I feel like I eat all the time....well, at least every 2 hours or so. I just have little snacks - fruit, almonds, string cheese, crackers, but I HAVE to eat or I feel sick. This morning I didn't think I was going to get to the kitchen fast enough to get food in me.

Like pp I eat every 2 hours or so. Fiber pop tart with milk in the morning, graham crackers as a mid-morning snack, greek yogurt with granola for lunch, applesauce as a mid afternoon snack, etc. Today I was bad and threw french fries in there instead.

My schedule: Eat when hungry.

Despite m/s I've been ravenous 24/7.

My schedule is

8:00/8:30-breakfast, 11:00/11:30-snack, 1/1:30 lunch, 3/3:30-snack, 6:30/7-dinner and then I'm normally ok till I wake up famished in the morning. I'm in bed by normally 9:30 or 10.

7:30 Breakfast

11:00 Second Breakfast

2:00/ 2:30 Lunch

4:30 snack

5:30 - 6 Dinner

8:30 snack

I feel great in the mornings but get progressively worse as the day goes on. So my feedings get closer together as the day goes on to combat the nausea.

bigbear · May 2011

8.00 breakfast

I munch on animal crackers until about 10.00 then I eat an apple or some carrots

11.30 or noon (if I can make it) lunch

I much on more animal crackers until about 2.00 that I ead my Greek yogurt with blueberries and strawberries

Then, you geussed it, I munch on animal crackers or almonds, or sweet potato

Get home and eat dinner around 6.30 or 7.00. Then I either have a little more yogurt or I have some milk and cookies

KHab1 · May 2011

I eat constantly! I'm starting to feel like a Hobbit ... first breakfast, second breakfast, mid-morning snack, lunch, afternoon snack, early dinner, dinner dinner, bedtime snack ... etc. If I don't eat constantly the m/s hits me like a tonne of bricks. It's the ONLY way I can avoid feeling sick all day long. I'm certain I'm going to gain most of my weight in the first tri because of this!

eec129 · May 2011

I do breakfast around 7:30, snack around 10:30, then lunch at 12:30..normally I had another snack around mid-afternoon, then dinner around 7. I haven't noticed an increase in frequency just an increase in appetite/amount of food consumed!

Redsoxchick · May 2011

I haven't changed my eating schedule much, yet!

I usually have breakfast, then a mid morning snack, then lunch, then an afternoon snack, then dinner, then dessert/snack

I had been doing Weight Watchers up until I got my BFP, so my body had been conditioned for my schedule with that. However, I've already noticed that it's not cutting it. I had a bowl of cheerios for breakfast and by 930, I was feeling like I was going to pass out (I can tell when my blood sugar is getting low). Ate my snack, but it's only 11 and I feel shaky, etc. so I might have to eat my lunch here pretty soon.

I say, eat what you want, when you want it. Listen to your body.

I've been super hungry so I feel like I'm constantly eating. But my sister-in-law eats small portions several times a day. If she gets full or doesn't feel hungry, she will eat a little bit of something anyway. It seems to work great for her.

I have been throwing up every morning and then nauseous all day - so I try to eat every 2 hours (something small, not a meal) otherwise I feel like I may need to run to the bathroom again

BakerMommy · May 2011

All. Day. Long.

I try to eat every 3 hours or so during the day. However, some times I cannot stomach anything. Evening is when my appetite seems to be lightest. I try to at least eat crackers for fruit if I am not hungry just to help the m/s from getting worse. If you are hungry, then eat. If you are not, then try to at least stomach something small.

I have to eat something about every 2 hours or I get horrible nausea
