<p>Hey all!! First of all I need to say thanks for all your sweet comments on my bump and the support! You all are just too sweet! I just can’t believe how much my tummy is already sticking out. I’m pretty sure it gets bigger everyday! </p> <p align="left">I feel very good about my eats the first 2 days of the week. Here is a summary of Tuesday’s eats. For breakfast I had <strong><em>1 glass orange juice (Vitamin C) </em></strong>and a bowl of <strong><em>oatmeal</em></strong> <strong><em>(whole grains) </em></strong>with a sliced <strong><em>banana</em></strong> <strong><em>(other fruits)</em></strong>. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjy1Pvop7kinkMZcVL7ZMXgs0kWNwJIYj85TKHWPdVETWThF2CIhQcKlCzy3ZGNxpdawaRT24Xa5n4ZvjyrAR9Ew2CwEtF5IYLEmMwu2ELbcctah8rKuys0MrLCxmOZUtabb7lRFloVyXYV/s1600-h/DSC096623.jpg"><strong><em><img alt="DSC09662" border="0" height="404" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5ilmV_yhuM96y33FWFuyahyphenhyphenOEdyL0ZLcivrz2KLJ0478qdVDB8MDv8C4DBUIhXk9ByNb3LmTwc160o4t-N5W0KAnYw5K5irI3q5xwHsnNikno0zQOX9cBwK_mzo7q6ommSoMN0UV1jyjl/?imgmax=800" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" title="DSC09662" width="304"></em></strong></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKRSvKOz90Cd7sp6TRSUgCy9WOaK-lB-voteq6MAGzde5fP_C-7FqFkKCmQ2zoMxlfcF7j3q-dwtgYTmmaWVkrLAVagW7e-QQ8N01PCY6Q3EJmNLiejeIUtAYXswClPYIG3aJjjBZ2Mv5c/s1600-h/DSC096613.jpg"><img alt="DSC09661" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizhElX0NnNTSG6tx6_KkUCGw33wElcEn6zix06LY7njTKo9zAzK15rsho-DDIOEzeIFXptweIqNt9STF9yE3qzHyzh1pY0ioe3B0b2R6nU4ZyRHsjjUScBgsyiHih7ughHaoVF-eds2UIF/?imgmax=800" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" title="DSC09661" width="404"></a></p> <p align="left">One thing I love about my job is that I had almost 2 weeks off over Christmas, but boy oh boy, coming back to insane, crazy busy work has been rough on this girl! </p> <p align="left">Mid morning I snacked on <strong><em>1 c</em></strong> of<strong><em> multi grain cheerios (whole grains). </em></strong><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4XUL_9uxhueTDZ7SF6uxAfoZNhxRVr9VlblT9hkEavNNuvIGdpWw9EEvhfrpW3KdYj78j_XO5_1uGx7gUXrlWbdc3s28IJzgowDBLE2Y3UCEwNA4vwsSXO2F3zlXdsxlGxbBjVgMnZE6B/s1600-h/DSC096633.jpg"><strong><em><img alt="DSC09663" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiChZb456oGY98BT66PUIeg7Cg-ZO3hAYVXBnGaJYhGuUZ8aMYxUqf3SdhVUk6bwdKZklCBMzmhyphenhyphenilpiCSeOcVe75HYtZ7s9JDKQ7hupcCTn0jdBg0kkHXuqHhTSFr3bW9A0MfHZxqhoe4M/?imgmax=800" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" title="DSC09663" width="404"></em></strong></a></p> <p align="left">Like I said the office was pretty crazy, so to hold me over till lunch I sliced an<strong><em> apple (other fruits)</em></strong> for another snack. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYm1GPwI8Z3BbsLaF9Sj2EEcKFcSDSiBWkcWxMTfAvaOkla7-zwIN-U6v3GW4QQUqrPNbRRNCmRmq116izhyorv96p-_oRLX3rj2Mr1XDnQoGhznsnuJSM332bfDyqEMmaJ58ngUwAWUDv/s1600-h/DSC096643.jpg"><img alt="DSC09664" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyXyKvQedakhXYPbEIPzvKLS-cR9q_nbamx2I5HLy26BpKV061EHHogpk4F-gAOVMrzwKk8VemdHEdg_RqkVSFu594Ze22FgE_VaFYa6pnXlVU2BX_TcnGkbE8nx9QH_Yky3FCgaGO10uZ/?imgmax=800" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" title="DSC09664" width="404"></a></p> <p align="left">My late, but delicious lunch was leftovers!

Before I knew I was carpooling with my main man to our humble abode! I love that we work at the same place!</p> <p align="left">Supper was a true midwestern meal, <strong><em>steak</em></strong> & <strong><em>potatoes</em></strong>! We use our new *larger* George Foreman grill to cook 2 good sized steaks. I had 1/2 of one <strong><em>(protein & iron).</em></strong><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJWmitrISIKNywCmDP41qkSgV4Ks7PbuurgWvwSHTw7gXDVII54AaWjYlgTRQ7PVRwermvtgKILY17gt2kmH2zxbBWoGuI-oirrl6tTy5gD0DjhJJWF8rVnFyLHGIFy-E0ZhiEmDzE0U_F/s1600-h/DSC096703.jpg"><strong><em><img alt="DSC09670" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0lTzDFBmwvT7clc-mYN9nUM1caH4wIMJQjBAWc110nCSECJG49HCW-pZbibp_9U-6lBo-xeMTh0Zzvw5xK_gLNH3YHeSWJkPMv_qDWqdGibk9kpulZ03LJisE0vLIrWuuAt2c2oVAH1Kr/?imgmax=800" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" title="DSC09670" width="404"></em></strong></a></p> <p align="left">And the<strong><em> roasted potatoes (iron)</em></strong> rounded out the meal!

I brought home a bunch of things that are <strong><em>VERY</em></strong> time sensitive right now. Needless to say, I’m ready to hit the hay!</p> <p>Here is a run down of my stats. The top number is how many servings I got in, the bottom number is how many is recommended. I think it will be hard to get all the recommended servings in of each category. But I think the big thing is that when I do choose food, I choose nutritionally rich ones. </p> <ul> <li>Whole Grains 3/6 <li>Calcium 0/4 <li>Green Leafy/Yellow Veggies/fruits 0/4 <li>Protein 2/3 <li>Vitamin C 1/3 <li>Iron 2/3 <li>Other Fruits & Veggies 2/2 <li>Fats 2/4 <li>Fluids 104oz <li>Prenatal – check!</li></ul> <p>I’m still in decision mode. These are a LOT of thing to track. But I know they are important for me & my baby, so I’m giving it a shot. If anyone has any advice to more easily track I am all ears! </p>
