I fell just short of a few goals yesterday but overall I did very well. My fiber intake was CRAZY!! I am really focusing on protein and fiber for these last few weeks. First of all protein is SO important during this phase as my baby girl is bulking up and I want her to have strong bones and muscle! I am watching my fiber intake because during the last few weeks I have read that you can have swelling, constipation and other symtoms so an increase of fiber and water is so good for you. I have also taken out a great deal of sodium, which has helped SO MUCH! I can see a difference not only in how I look but in the scale as well. My weight can change from .5 pound to 2 pounds in one day just from eating a great deal of sodium and not drinking my water. I tell you water helps so much! This was true too when I was in weight loss mode prior to my pregnancy. DRINK that water!!!!
I am heading out for our 30 week doctors apt today! Then I have some more errands to run before my parents and in laws come to see us for the weekend. I am cooking today for all of us! Wonderful, healthy meals I promise! I am cooking a Buffalo chili with beans, stoneground cornbread, chicken fajitas with whole grain fiber tortillas, and a BIG pot of Cranberry beans!
