Pregnancy Food Plan

Hey all,

Just found out I am 10 weeks pregnant. Didn't have any symptoms until about 2 weeks ago-constipation and sore boobs. It is funny because a few months ago the hubby and I decided we were extremely happy with life and  done having kids (this is my 3rd pregnancy - have 1 child looking down on us from above and 1 here on earth. Total Shock of BFP but very excited now.  

I have been successful at losing 110lbs and cutting body fat more than 1/2 in 15 months. I am working out 3-4 times a week and will continue to work out during pregnancy as long as doc says ok.  

I was wondering what your eating plans look like.

I have seen my high risk OB (not related to my roux-en-y), he has done bloodwork and an ultrasound. I will be seeing him again Jan 17th for IPS testing-more bloodwork and ultrasound and this is the day I will be meeting with the dietician.

Thanks

I try to make sure I eat every hour if I can to keep my stomach full...small snacks and light meals. It helps with the bad nausea I have which leads to fainting or reactive hypoglycemia for me. I just mix and match a lot of the stuff below day to day but try to get in at least 3 good meals and 2 snacks if I can plus lots of fluid. I just recently started allowing myself to have coffee but do half caffeine/half decaf otherwise it is water, juice, or decaf tea.
