Hey Michelle, good that you're eating more now! What sortof food are you eating?
Breakfast is always the same - 20g old fashioned oatmeal, a scoop of whey, 1/3c blueberries, and 14g walnuts.

The rest of my food varies but revolves around the same basics:
beef, chicken, fish, LOTS of egg whites (1/2 egg yolk per day).

LOTS of veggies (spinach every day and lots of green beans, broccoli, and green pepper, with smaller amounts of other things like carrots, tomatoes, cabbage, peas, mushrooms, onions, garlic, etc, etc), sweet potatoes (small portions), acorn squash....

Small amounts of cheese (30-60 cals worth, depending). Small amounts of whole grain products such as whole wheat tortillas (never more than 1/2 a tortilla per serving) or 1/4c of organic whole grain cereal (no high fructose corn syrup or anything like that). A bit of milk (1/4c-1/2c/day). Almond milk. PB.

And just about every evening I have a low carb yogurt.

Oh, I also have been eating 1/2 of a banana every day for potassium and to combat the calf cramps I get during the night when I'm pregnant.

And I make sure to always combine protein/carb/fat. On the rare occassion that I grab one thing quickly I'll go for protein.

Hmm.... there might be more but that's what comes to mind right now and pretty much covers it.

Michelle
