nicoley22 Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 I am brand new to the forum and am SO excited to get this started. I am 3mo pp and need to get my food back under control. I am sick and tired of counting, measuring, etc and need an easy, semi-stress free approach to eating healthy again. Before my pregnancy I was pretty strict Paleo for years, then while pregnant I couldn't stomach much half my pregnancy so I ate more carbs than I was used to. Now, I'm nursing my son and want to keep up my supply and feed him whole foods in the process. I'd love to lose weight but that isn't my MAIN concern. Here goes nothing!

nicoley22 Posted October 26, 2015 Author Share Posted October 26, 2015 Monday Breakfast: 3 eggs, 1/4 onion, 1/2 red bell pepper, 1 small sweet potato, all cooked in CO, cold press coffee with coconut milk Lunch: tuna(coconut oil mixed in), whole tomato, plantain chips. This also served as my preworkout. Not ideal but it is what it is. Post workout: 2 hard boiled egg whites, 1/4 cup ish pumpkin purée I felt way energized earlier, like a little jittery and I wasn't even hungry. It was weird. I've probably drank 60-80 ounces of water already. I'm headed to sprouts bc I need some more staples! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicoley22 Posted October 28, 2015 Author Share Posted October 28, 2015 Lunch: leftover grilled chicken and taco meat with 1/4 avocado, steamed veggies, 2\3 red potato with CO Workout was really good, I ran out of time due to a play date but I got most of it in. I think my supply may be dipping, baby's wanted to eat more often and his cues are leading me to believe so. I'll keep an eye on it. Post WO: hard boiled egg white Dinner: sautéed shrimp, 1 small sweet potato with Ab/CO, veggie (unsure of which yet-no salad) Water is on point. I have a sinus headache so I hope I'm not coming down with something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicoley22 Posted October 30, 2015 Author Share Posted October 30, 2015 Thursday. Trying out 4 templates today to keep my milk supply up. We got stuck at target so my 3rd had to wait a little longer than I hoped. I've noticed I get tired sooner at night, which sucks bc I don't want to go to sleep and wake up in an hour or so to feed my son. I typically am in bed by 10 and fall asleep within 30min. I've been getting tired by 8pm. I didn't sleep well last night, up worrying :/ I'll workout tomorrow after a play date. Breakfast (900) 3 eggs (avocado), red potato, broccoli(two handfuls), spinach (handful), grapes(handful), coconut milk/coffee, 20oz water Lunch: (1) chicken breast (co), roasted sweet potato (evoo), broccoli (evoo), coconut milk, 20oz water Mini meal: (515) bell pepper (raw), tuna (co, Frank's), 1/2 banana Dinner: (8)sweet potato sloppy joe(made 2 meals-1/2 can diced tomatoes, 1/2 can tomato paste, 1/2 can tomato sauce, 1/2 Orange BP, ground beef-CO), grapes/1/2 banana/coconut milk Water total near 100oz.
