Weekly Pregnancy Meal Plan (100g Protein Per Day!)

Happy Saturday Friends! Last week you all seemed to love my post where I documented a full week of nourishing pregnancy meals. I thought I’d do another!

Read the first post here.

Now let’s dive into what I ate this week at 23 weeks pregnant. Something to note is that this week my appetite was lower than normal due to some pesky nausea. Some days I ate more, some days I ate less. I also found I didn’t have an appetite until much later in the day most days. I didn’t stress too much about this, and as you can see at the end of the week it all seemed to balance out.

HOW I’M HAVING A HEALTHY PREGNANCY:

As a quick reminder, here’s a brief outline of my full wellness protocol I have in place for this pregnancy:

  • real whole foods aiming for between 1500 - 1800 calories per day (my normal maintenance calories is 1400)

  • 100 grams protein minimum (you’ll see below that most days I easily get more!)

  • aiming for min. 72 oz water per day, but hoping to get in 100 oz!

  • min. 30 minutes walking per day (this can be outside or on the walking pad)

  • 30 minutes strength training 4 x per week (using two 10lb dumbbells and this specific pregnancy safe workout routine)

Here’s what i ate while pregnant this week:

Just a quick reminder, you can see my first week of pregnancy meals in this blog post.

I hope you enjoyed this post! As always, thank you for visiting the blog today - it means the world. Xx Julia Rae Connor
