I know we all have had different surgies and are all eating different things....But I am trying to get more variety in my diet.  Would some of y'all share your meals for a normal day or just suggest things for breakfast lunch dinner and snacks!  Thanks so much in advance!

Bacon wrapped water chestnuts......mmmmmm.......

Not sure how healthy they are, but they are tasty!

I lived on cheese sandwiches on cheap white bread with butter and potato chips while pregnant!  That's what I ate at 3 in the morning while in labor..... yummy.

Hope you get some better responses than mine!

Right now I am drinking a smoothie with mil**** to make it like a shake lol, most of a banana (I took a bite before throwing it into the blender haha) and a scoop of protein powder. Mmmm.

I eat alittle, alot through the day lol so I have lots of snack ideas. There are the obvious ones like yougurt. My new fav is Fiber One, they have the lowest sugar content I have yet to find, and they taste great.

Sliced deli turkey wrapped around some string cheese. (Im weird and dip it in mustard. Hey, im preggo. LOL)

I love granola stired into some plain greek yogurt with a teaspoon of splenda to sweeten it up. Plain greek can be kinda bitter.

Reduced fat penut butter sandwich on whole wheat with either sugar free honey or sugar free  jelly. I like to refrigerate mine, for some reason they just taste better!!!

I like Hormel turey chili with shredded cheese on top. Sometimes I'll eat a few ritz crackers.

Sloppy joes. I make these with ground turkey, and use the Food Lion brand sloppy joe sauce because it only has 2 grams of sugar a sugar, as compared to manwich, which has 9.

If your cooking for a bigger family, I loooove my crock pot. If I have a long day ahead of me, I will actually throw my meat in the crock pot still frozen the night before. For example I'll take some red potatoes, rinse them and put them in the bottom of the pan, dice half an onion, 2 cups of carrots (I just take the heads off mine and put em in whole, by the next day they are so tender they just fall apart) Then I will put the frozen chicken breast on top, add 1/4 cup A-1 steak sauce, a few shakes of garlic salt and then take chicken broth and fill the crock pot half way and put it on the lowest setting. By the time you wake up the scent will hit you! Before you leave flip the chicen, make sure the broth is still at half way, if not add more broth. When you get home all you have to do is di**** out. Its a fav. And you can pretty much do that with any meats. My husband dosent like to eat the carrots if they get too mushy, which is how the kids and I actually like em, so I put his in 30 minutes before we eat. I'll usually heat up some rolls or biscuts too for them.

Anyways hope some of this helps! I hate it when I get in a rut girl!

Super proud mommy to Dylan, Owen and Sophia Brianne!

For breakfast I had black beans, for lunch I had half a turkey sandwhich (on toasted bread, that's the only way it'll go down), salad, and apple crisp for dessert, for dinner I had pot roast with red potatoes and carrots. I was a lap bander who didn't eat carbs at all before I found out I was pregnant so I'm getting used to adding breads and potatoes in. Carbs are addicting for me, but I know I need too. I hope I can "detox" easily after the baby is born.
