It depends, I go out to eat too much. But today I took homeade sloppy joes that I made. I also had greek yogurt and mandarin oranges, and I brought nature valley bars for snacks since I won't get home until 7.

I have been surprisingly less hungry since finding out I am pregnant. I think it is probably just that I am finding it easier to avoid the sugary treats I normally crave because I want to make sure all (or nearly all) of my calories are as high quality as they can be. Today I've had:

Breakfast: two eggs and some strawberries, a big mug of herbal "coffee" (caffeine free) with whole milk that I sipped on until lunch

Lunch: went to a farmer's market on my lunch break and got a grilled lamb kebab on salad greens with some green dressing

Snack: handfuls of blueberries that I bought at the farmer's market

Dinner: 1/4 hamburger patty topped with a strip of bacon, brussels sprouts, mushrooms, sweet potato with butter -- I'll probably also have some dark chocolate for dessert. I'm only a 5w4d, though, so I'm also not needing to eat above maintenance.

I guess my day was low-ish carb today, but that wasn't intentional. I've been just concentrating on getting as much whole, relatively unprocessed food as I can and not OD-ing on sugar.

Almost everyday I eat cheerios with fresh berries and a big glass of chocolate milk. I love that stuff and it helps the fat prenatal vitamins go down.

At around 10 I have a snack, either a berry/yogurt/milk smoothie or a cheese stick and some almonds.

Lunch is all over the place but usually it's leftovers HOWEVER the last month I haven't been making supper! I just don't want to eat after 2 pm. Weird.....so lately it's been a soup or salad and toasted tomato/cheese/lettuce/mayo sandwich with some sort of little dessert after like jello or a cookie.

When I do track on mfp it shows i'm getting enough calories so I haven't been too worried about not eating a real supper. i'm not sure if I'm just feeling too busy or overwhelmed or just not hungry at night. It seems like every supper I make is some sort of vegetarian thin crust pizza. It's a quick easy meal for me and I can load it with veggies and then pack it for lunch the next day.

Just noticed that I said "1/4 hamburger patty" when what I meant was "1/4 LB hamburger patty" -- Who eats only 1/4 of a hamburger?! :laugh:

Morning : I prepare a Smoothie every morning (strawberries, oat bran for my fiber intake hehe, greek yogurt and 1% milk)
I like to prepare my smoothie with at least 2 cups of milk, 1/4 cup of greek yogurt, 5 tbsp of oat bran and 1 cup of strawberries, so when I come back from work if I am super hungry I can drink that while I am cooking (If I dont have any leftovers) or waiting for hubby to get home and have dinner together .
mid morning Snack: skim string cheese, baby carrots, cucumbers or fruit (sometimes all of this lol) .
Lunch: Protein (chicken, meat ) with some veggies or brown rice. Most of the time I won't finish all of my food but I prefer to be prepared
Afternoon, Granola and greek yogurt, fruit.
Dinner : usually the same for lunch since I like to cook for several days.
Late snacks: Kashi cereal with 1% milk

I will make a kale smoothie (raw kale, carrot juice, fruit) to eat with 2 hard boiled eggs, or treat myself to egg, potato and turkey sausage at the cafeteria, very rarely a gluten free bagel or something if I am craving carbs

If hungry midmorning (usually!) I will usually have Greek yogurt or a banana with some peanut butter or some fruit

Lunch is leftovers from dinner, a kale salad with tuna, vegetable stirfry with chicken, a spinach salad with beans and chicken from the cafeteria, or some other veggie/protein combo

Afternoon snack is usually yogurt, fruit, a belly bar, carrot sticks, nuts, or whatever else I can find to throw in my bag.

The rule is 3 veggie and 2 fruit servings a day and at least 6 of protein, usually with eggs ala the brewer diet. http://www.blueribbonbaby.org/brewer-diet-checklists/brewer-diet-basic-plan-checklist/

I work 8-12 hour shifts so I tend to bring a fair amount of food for the latter. Trying to stick to smaller meals and eating more often as i run out of space. I also try not to go crazy on carbs cause they make me sleepy and I tend to eat a lot of rice or whatever with DH for dinner

Best of luck

When I'm starving and i don't know what to eat i like to make a sample plate lol.i put one wedge of laughing cow one yogurt one tbs peanut butter a serving of saltines which i break in half a serving of turkey lunch meat. Then i like to put fresh fruit and veggies on it like baby carrots apples half a banana pickles melons strawberry it normally comes out to an e extremely satisfying 300 cal give or tale about thirty. Plus i managed to get at least one serving of everything and it is pretty balanced hope this gives you lady's something to try!

I've been eating carbs. They are the only thing that fills me up and makes me not feel sick all the time.

Cereal, Bagel & cream cheese , and pb&js have been making it on my food diary quiet often lately!
