Seems like every 2-3 hours, it's time to eat again! Anyone else with me on this?! Of course, I'm eating small amounts (200-300 cals at a time). I'm getting tired of eating the same things, which include:
Wheat Thins w/ Laughing Cow wedges
Tortilla chips & cheese
Fruits & veggies (I could increase this
)
Smart Ones frozen meals
String cheese
My DH & I are going shopping tonight & need some ideas for small snacks. What helps you get through the day?
Re: Anyone else eating EVERY 2-3 hours?
Yeah i feel the same & this week trying smaller meals as well. I feel when I have no snacks & a big meal I do not feel good.
Today I had: Light eng.muffin w/light cream cheese & low sugar jelly for breakfast. Then random snacks: greek yogurt, cheese stick, sliced apples & weight watchers dark chocolate ( are delish I like the portion control pouches). Oh and TONS of water...
I am hungry again so I may have some oatmeal now....
Sliced green and red peppers with hummus
Popcorn
Added to my list!!! I forgot Greek Yogurt- I haven't bought it the last couple shopping trips! YUMMO!!!!!!!!
My snacks today are:
string cheese
veggie straws
yogurt
fruit cup
banana
apple
Kind bars seem to be the thing! I'll add this to my list, too! Thanks!!!
Fruit salad
Nature Valley Oats and Dark Chocolate granola bars (yummy, although not super healthy)
Yogurt (and I just started to add some chia seeds)
Baby carrots
A big bowl of life cereal.
A banana with Nutella and a blue powerade.
A double tortilla quesadilla.
4 water bottles.
A milkshake.
An I'm still hungry.
I want chocolate milk.
Yes, but I refuse to say what I've been eating.
Let's just say that baby is very happy with Cadbury Mini Eggs.
Yes. I cannot stomach a full meal, so I eat small meals and snack in between, all day long.
Go-to snacks lately are sliced green peppers or carrot sticks with ranch dressing, tostitos and salsa, and smoothies. I'll make a big smoothie in the a.m. with various fruits and yogurt, and I'll drink it throughout the day. It helps me stay away from ice cream
Someone on my other BMB shared this recipe today, and I'm excited to make these wraps for lunches and snacks! And it seems like you could easily make different variations, depending on your taste and what foods you have on hand:

Its better to eat a bunch of small meals than big meals, preggo or not. I am finding myself not able to eat much at one time, i guess i am running out of room lol
I would stay away from the frozen meals, way wya too much sodium it'll just make u bloated. even the light or smart meals
This is me, I'm feeling like an unhealthy cow now. I need to kick my eating habits back into gear.
