During my pregnancy with ziggy, I popped Tums like candy, was far from regular ๐ฉ, and struggled with fatigue due to an iron deficiency.
My ankles looked liked sausages due to water retention & inflammation, I binge ate ice cream and tootsie rolls on the reg, and freaked out about every pound I gained.
It's no wonder I was super emotional, cranky and pretty miserable company for 9 months.
My biggest complaint this time around at this stage of the game is that I can barely get my shoes on independently ๐๐
Little to no heartburn ๐ฅ
No iron deficiency or anemia (eating mostly plants!) ๐ฑ
Perfect blood sugars ๐๐ผ
Things moving smoothly ๐ฉ
No swelling, water retention or inflammation ๐ ๐ปโโ๏ธ
Sense of control around the sweets ๐ฆ
Trusting my body and not stressing about my weight
Overall better headspace #goodbyecaptaincrank
One big thing that has shifted for me between then and now: SELF CARE.
And that included the way I eat. I said good bye โ๐ผ to the loads of processed breads, prepared meals, and mindless snacks that were a mainstay to my diet ๐ฅ๐ฅฏ๐๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅจ๐๐ฅง๐ฐ๐ง
and said hellloooo ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ to more plantsโ fresh fruits & veg, gluten free grains, proteins and fats. ๐ฅฌ๐๐ฅฆ๐ฅ๐๐๐ฅ๐๐ณ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ต๐๐ฆ
Slow and steady wins the race and I know from experience it can be overwhelming โ like you want to maybe layer some of this in and begin to experience transformation in your own health but where do you start?!
We've been working on a solution. ๐๐ป
~The Veg Out Meal Plan ~
If you wish you had a plan heading into each week... are looking for a simple, consistent place to start... maybe feel like you're getting bored with food or want to begin to heal your body... and want to layer something in that doesn't break the bank (or taste like cardboard)... Read on, sister, read onโฆ! ๐ฅณ
A handful of people have tested the waters, and hereโs what theyโre saying:
"It's all done for me. I don't have to rack my brain about what to eat!"
"I finally broke through my plateau and am back to pre pregnancy weight!"
"The recipes share ingredients so there is no waste!"
โI don't really want any junk food or restaurant food any more- now that I know how GOOD and easy the good/ real stuff is!! โ
So, so exited to share this with you guys! Check out the details, and for a limited time, the opportunity to try a free plan, linked below!!
