Is it ok to drink slim fast while pregnant? I have gained too much weight so far. I started out tiny and now my mid section is huge! I'm not looking to lose weight but eating hurts. My lower back is in excruciating pain and I know it's from the weight gain and due to my belly sticking so far out. I'm only 25 weeks pregnant and I feel the only option is to eat tiny meals to keep up my energy because after I eat my stomach feels so tight b it just hurts.
It should also have less than 300 milligrams of sodium and less than 3 grams of saturated fat. Some bars are marketed as weight loss or dieting bars avoid these. Bars should not be used to replace a meal; they should be a calorie-boosting snack between meals.
Mixing a protein powder with other high-calorie ingredients, like peanut butter, chocolate syrup or honey.
you can buy pre-made weight gain shakes and powders.
So basically I struggle eating and would like to have a simple one off meal that's serves all my nutritional needs. I just forget to eat and because of this I'm underweight. Trying my best to put weight on but it's hard for me.
So I came across homemade protien bars. made from oats,protien powder, peanut butter,almonds,milk, honey,chocolate, almonds and I decided to add in a multivitamin crushed into the flatjack mix. Isn't much fiber tho.
Welcome to the community.
Try walking at a reasonable pace. Also look into yoga as it's low impact and done at a slow very deliberate pace.
Be sure to watch what you eat as well - might also help the e-coli infection.
Thanks ladies I do get worried about this but I will eat bigger portions n hope it works.

Hugs and again congrats on 1 wk...Hang in there...you can do this...
s club size) of granola bars and nut bars that they can also grab. They do normally ask m about other things before eating them. But lunch meat or peanut butter and jelly that they can make themselves, and hey, I'm not above ramen noodles as they can now boil water. But try to keep eating in a pattern. My boys eat regular meals and then have snacks and I do try to avoid constant eating all day long.
Along with fruits and vegetables, personally I like the South Beach Diet bars which contain around 15 grams of carbs (or less). My kids love them too.
Thanks for your help, my food tracker seems to be working now. I have another question though. I make a large batch of Almond Power Bars, (a recipe for protein bars I got from my Maximized Living Chiropractor). Is there a way to calculate the nutritional value of one serving so that I can add it to my tracker?
Does anyone know how I can purchase the Slim Ball pills DESPERATE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Agree with other posters. Proteins are important and eat every 2 hours during the day. Eggs are great. I make up fruit/whole grain cereal muffins with an extra egg and freeze them--then defrost 2 a day.
Im 30 weeks and craving sweets so bad...
Nuts and seeds, roasted edamame beans, protein bars (pick bars with at least 10 grams of protein and no more than 30 grams of carbs), protein shakes.
I like whey protein concentrate
Whey protein concentrate, NOT protein isolates
Protein isolates are proteins stripped away from their nutritional cofactors. There are three
problems with that...
All isolates are exposed to acid processing.
Your body cannot assimilate proteins in isolated form.
I was wondering at what to put the nutritional value of food over the amount of calories they contain. For example, I regulate my calories fairly closely and usually am always well under the daily recommended amount, but there are some days that I feel like I am hungry all day. As a general rule, I enjoy eating raw mixed nuts as a snack, but they tend to be high in calories.
flesh to bulge and nothing to do with excessive fat!!!
You at high risk if your nutritional intake and fat levels are too low.
It can affect development, performance, cognitive function, hormones,
neurological function, energy levels, etc.
In addition, being 13 and growing, your body has many demands, which will not be met, if your diet is inadequate.
You should talk to a holistic nutritionist who is knowledgeable in this field.
