Oh the headache on day 1!!
I skipped my coffee because the baby just DOESN'T like it some mornings. BIG mistake. I had a headache so bad I could barely hold my head up most of the day. :(
Add to that my husband's superstition about eating chicken/eggs on NYD.... it was interesting finding food yesterday!
We hadn't made it to Whole Foods for bacon yet, so he threw together a hot dog/potato/red pepper scramble. It wasn't the worst concoction we've ever had but I don't think we'll be rushing to try it again. ;-) I also had 1/4 of an avocado and half of a grapefruit.
Lunch: 4 baby cucumbers, handful of olives, hot dogs and whole grain mustard.
Friday was better. I was able to get down about a half a cup of coffee with coconut cream - so far, no headache!
Breakfast: 3 over medium eggs, 1/2 avocado, one cup of blackberries.
Lunch: Baked chicken breast, 1/4 avocado, 2 clementines, about a cup of baby carrots.
Afternoon: 1oz almonds
Dinner: Cracklin' chicken, roasted carrots, roasted potatoes. This was pretty big as I normally CANNOT STAND cooked carrots. These? They'll be made in my house 1-2 times a week going forward. Delicious!!
I need to modify just slightly. I am only coming in around 1,000 calories and I JUST don't feel like that's enough while pregnant. Yes, I know the rules, but I am being overly cautious because of my pregnancy. So I will watch my protein intake (keep it less than 20% of my total daily macros), calories and calcium. So I will be adding a fourth meal and possibly a snack after dinner just to make sure I'm hitting 1500+ calories.
