I have to start this post by saying “Thank you” for your overwhelming response to our pregnancy announcement yesterday! I feel so very blessed to have this wonderful community, so thank you so much!
Sharing a quick 5 day meal plan post… basically everything I ate for a week. Yesterday I was asked if my eating was going to change now that I am pregnant. With the exception of eating more, what I eat won’t be changing… lean proteins, vegetables, fruits, grains, and occasional indulgences… while listening to what my body needs. So, I’ll continue sharing my meals here, and over on stories… and hopefully any pregnancy cravings can lead to some new recipes…..
