how much should i be able to eat?
I am so happy you posted 😌I am in the same situation - my two year anniversary will be in March, and I had my son in November. I felt too that I was constantly eating - my dietitian said to aim for 1600-1800 caps a day with 80 grams protein. That was double what I was use to eating.
i ate constantly throughout the day but to reach this amount, and I too thought this is waaaaay to much food.
I gained 20 kg and lost half of that upon his birth. I was quite surprised that I gained actual "weight". I didn't look pregnant until the eighth month so I assumed what I was gaining was just "baby".
i am very very happy that I have my little one, but feel horrible with myself and feel like a failure for the gain.
to get back on track I sm just going to do what I did before. I am able to start exercising in 2 weeks and will work up to my 69 mins of high intensity cardio. I will aim to ear 800-1000 calories a day and will measure my portions and track with my fitness pal. I will cut out carbs and go high protein.
if you done it before you will be able to do it again. Once you develop a plan and s goal you will feel better about the situation.
please keep in touch, we could be great support to each other during this journey.
