What my pregnant self is eating 1/10

nessa1632 · January 2018

a day late but I know we are all in the third tri hungry state so what are y’all eating??

—

i’m currently loving avocado toast with Trader Joe’s everything but the bagel seasoning (also a first tri fave) and toast with peanut butter, banana, honey, and cinnamon. And to continue the trend- cereal duh! Banana nut crunch FTW.

This week I got my eating under control and have basically been eating all the same things:

-honey bunches of oats (could prob eat a whole box but have resisted)
-oatmeal and peanut butter or an egg
-steamfresh veggies (whole bag) and 2 veggie burgs on top every day for lunch
-blackberries
-RX bars
-silk yogurts

Dinners have been: tacos, pork chops, spaghetti squash/pasta with ground turkey meat sauce, homemade pizza, etc. Nothing exciting.

@Nessa1632 ugh I love avocado everything and I'm freaking ravenous so now I want an avocado.

OMFG I JUST REALIZED I FORGOT TO EAT LUNCH. NO WONDER I'M SO DAMN HUNGRY. Off to scarf down my food!!

(lunch is crunch curry quinoa salad with chicken breast)

nessa1632 · January 2018

@ladythrice I never have that problem bc I legit sit at my desk waiting until it is an appropriate time to eat lunch, typically 11:30 but as of the last few weeks 11:01 will do. Your lunch sounds tasty!!!

@ekendall09 i have been doing the steam veggies and veggie burgers too! I’m really into the dr praegers kale burgers although I make it burger style with cheese and sir Kensington spicy mayo which is to die for (if you like spicy).

im currently making spaghetti with linguica and side salad for dinner. Can’t wait! Although I will have to bc I signed up for a 630 barre class.

I’m at an investor conference. Most of these conferences have lots of snacks and yummy things to eat. This conference has way too many people and not nearly enough food.

I usually eat lunch at 1130 at work (I get to the office at 630am) so not only is the wait to 1230-1pm for lunch at this conference killing me, but I have been making up for lost time by eating not one not two, but three cookies for desert.

Just to be clear, I’m not just a cranky pregnancy woman. I got knocked over the first day while in line by some guy desperate for the last turkey sandwich.

@stalkinghorse wtaf?? Being hungry does not give anyone the right to knock people over. Ever! I hope he felt like a giant ass afterwards.

I've been craving peanut butter toast too. I'm also still really liking anything spicy still. I feel like im
doing good avoiding sweets but I'm often hungry around 930.

I'm almost 3rd tri and I've suddenly become ravenously hungry. I don't have much time to eat during the day, so I end up binging at night, which isn't very healthy, but oh well.

For breakfast, it's usually cereal or toast with peanut butter. Sometimes I'll make scrambled eggs if I have time.
Snack is usually a piece of fruit or a yogurt.
Lunch is a salad or turkey sandwich with something on the side. I've been craving crunchy stuff so today is was tortilla chips. Sometimes I'll switch it up and have soup or leftovers.
Dinner depends on how motivated I am. Tonight I'm being a good mom and making dinner for everyone. (Salmon, roasted potatoes and salad)

I've been snacking way too much after dinner, but I'm trying to not be too hard on myself. I bought some popcorn today figuring that's not too awful to snack on...but I also bought ice cream b/c I'm craving vanilla ice cream with melted peanut butter.

bcliffee1 · January 2018

@nessa1632 I have been the same way this last week. I finish breakfast around 9am and at 11 I am ready for lunch.

i feel ravenous with food this week. Sweet and salty anything will do.

mornings are filled with fruits and yogurts
lunch is whatever was leftover from dinner
Dinner has lately been pretty hearty filled with meats vegetables and potatoes

byt my all time favorite is dessert. At LEAST two fruit frozen pops at night. I look forward to it all day

kaymaroo · January 2018

I'm making an effort to get back on track with balanced eating after the holidays, so today has been:

Breakfast: plain greek yogurt with blueberries and chia/quinoa/flax granola
Snack: grapefruit
Lunch: Salad with chicken, apples, walnuts, parmesan, and balsamic (and okay, a few croutons)
Snack: String cheese, apple with raw unsalted almond butter
10 million cups of tea, some with honey

Dinner is where it usually falls apart and tonight will be pasta (again). I just don't have the energy to cook a meal that is both healthy/lower-carb and that my six-year-old will eat.

I've also been craving olives like a madwoman and eating them like they're my job, so I'm sure that will be on the table tonight as well.

btm013 · January 2018

An apple with peanut butter is my whole world these days.

I’ve tried to tone it down since the holidays. (Boooo I know). I had too many days where I felt so stuffed and bloated and had terrible heartburn.

So, I'm back to my morning green smoothies, egg, avocado toast for lunch and then I trrrrry to keep it healthy for dinner. Snacks have been apple/peanut butter, yogurt or cheese with crackers. It’s not nearly as fun haha. I want all things unhealthy!

okayrunner · January 2018

I’ve actually done really well eating this past week, so I’m relieved to feel like I’m in control again. I’m trying to avoid senseless carbs, because they have been my weakness. Breakfast/lunch is prepped ahead for me to take to work.

Breakfast: egg muffins /w roasted broccoli and sharp cheddar.

Lunch: Shredded chipotle salsa chicken bowls /w cilantro lime quinoa, roasted corn, tomato, avocado, and lime.

Snacks: Bananas with peanut butter are life. Otherwise, hard boiled eggs, carrots, cheese slices, turkey sticks, yogurt, protein bars.

Dinner is always whatever I plan on the menu for the family. We frequently do tacos because you can do a million different variations.

ekendall09 · January 2018

@nessa1632 i'll have to try those veggie burgs! I've been eating a ton of morning start brand ones and love everyone i've tried!

Puddlewonderful · January 2018

Don’t worry guys I can bring down the healthiness of this thread...I’ve had McDonald’s three times this week. The first was a legit craving, the next two were out of desperation driving around between meetings...but still. I feel so gross.

sapphires-and-diamonds · January 2018

I'm still working on getting back on track. The holidays always screw me and it's definitely harder when pregnant to stop eating all the crap.
I made egg muffins today. These are awesome to have on hand and you can make them anyway you want! I love making mine with chorizo or turkey sausage, spinach and a bit of cheese. Then top them with avocado and a bit of plain greek yogurt. Yum! I also have steel cut oats with apples in the slow cooker right now.
Dinners have been Mexican chicken bowls, spaghetti, German potato soup, ground turkey stuffed peppers, fettuccini with spinach and poached eggs.
Snacking is what is killing me. Icecream, cookies, strawberry waffles. Ugh I don't even care for sweets! Wtf!?

beach_mama · January 2018

@Puddlewonderful I've been eating horribly too! I have been loving cinnamon toast crunch for breakfast and ice cream in the evenings. Yesterday i had chick-fil-a for lunch and we *may* have gone out for pizza last night. Needless to say i woke up w a few leg cramps last night. Lol!

whatabout2ndbreakfast · January 2018

I have been craving chocolate milk shakes, BBQ chips, and cereal. Trying to go for healthier-ish versions of these things like drinking more milk and BBQ chicken but I think I might need to start buying bulk cereal haha
