Pregnancy on Keto?
Eeeeee! I just found out I'm pregnant with no 2! Exciting and terrifying news. I plan on staying low carb, but I see conflicting info on ketosis during pregnancy. Does anyone have any insight? It will still be a few weeks until my first doctor appointment, so I can't pick her brain yet. Has anyone stayed low carb during…

I am SO hungry right now.
And it's my own da*m fault. We're in the process of moving and I thought I could get a load done during my lunch. I knew there were next to no groceries at the old house, but I thought I had some eggs left. I was wrong. There was some sausage...but after I cooked it I realized that it had gone bad.

My maintenance intake is right over 1700 calories, and now that I'm in the second trimester, I know I need to add 300 to that....so should take in a little over…

Nervous Preggo - Diet/Nutrition Help Appreciated
Hello all, I was dieting along and was within about 20lbs of my goal weight when I discovered that my husband and I are expecting! Obviously weight loss is no longer my goal, (those 20 lbs will just have to wait 9 months or so), but I am concerned about maintaining a healthy weight during pregnancy and not gaining more…
