I'm expecting right now, have a toddler at home full time and a LOT to do for work. The past couple of weeks I found myself eating 90% empty calories, and enough cals to sustain 2 full grown people... whoops.
Before this gets out of hand, I would love to hear what you do that helps you eat healthy consistently and make healthy choices.
Last postpartum I had over 10 kilos to lose, and definitely not looking to repeat that! Thanks

Keep plenty nutritious food readily available. It’s much harder to sit and peel an orange, slice an apple etc when you’re already ravenous, the trick is to have things you can grab and eat with no prep, so grapes, nuts, baby carrots etc

It’s really hard to be pregnant with a toddler. Just want to remind you that you have a lot on your plate!

Some ideas that are quick: hard boiled eggs, store bought soup cartons with cheese , banana with peanut butter, Trader Joe’s makes a black bean quinoa burger that’s yummy and dr prager makes a wild mushroom rice burger that’s good
Red lentil soup is pretty quick to make and so are whole roasted sweet potatoes

Yes. I'm in the same position and my Dr told me I cant gain more than 13 pounds this pregnancy.

Thinking about why I want to make healthy choices and what are the consequences of making unhealthy ones.

When I'm pregnant it's impossible, but once the baby comes out I'm able to diet pretty much right away.
I think my Yetzer HaRa is involved in why I'm able to make healthy choices (bc I want to look sxy), but I'm harnessing the Yetzer HaRa for a good cause, which I believe is what we are supposed to aim for.
