Another vote for more protien, especially at breakfast. Bananas are healthy but they are high in sugar. Two could be spiking your sugar levels and making your are more hungry when you crash.

One of my favorite breakfasts is cottage cheese with 1/2 an avacado and grapefruit sections.

More protein. Snacks should be more filling. Veggies w/hummus, cheese sticks, nuts, apple with PB, hard boiled eggs, PB filled pretzels, instant oatmeal, luna bar, etc. during my third trimester I brought tons of snacks to work! Didn't always need them all but found it important to be prepared.

Your 35 weeks pregnant. You should be eating lots of fat, protein, good tasty food. Lots of time to get rid of baby weight.

More fat, more protein, add in some sweet poatoes and avocados.

Pasta doesn't nourish you sufficnetly so you get hungry again quickly.

Try eggs scrambled with coconut oil, half an avocado and a sweet potato for breakfast.

Lunch and dnner could be meatballs or chili over zuchinni or greens.

Snacks could be almond butter and apples or bananas.

Bean stews - makes big batches you can freeze, good fat from beans, protein and veggies...

I like eggs for breakfast. Scrambled or over-easy on weekends, or hard-boiled on weekdays (I cook a dozen on the weekend and store them in the fridge, great for quick weekday mornings).

For dinner, I like to incorporate a heartier grain like farro or brown rice. My standard dinner is a salad, a protein (chicken breast/thigh, small steak, fish fillet, etc), veggie (steamed broccoli, sauteed bok choy, etc) and the grain. I find that this keeps me feeling full better than a dinner based on bread, pasta, or white rice.

I also keep small packs of nuts and dried cranberries around for quick snacking.

Fat is satiating. Eat a high fat, high protein diet, but don't eat more calories than you need. You'll be full and watching your calories will help keep you from gaining unwanted weight.

I'm 35weeks pregnant and always hungry. This normally would be too much for me.

Breakfast: 1 whole wheat toast with 1tbsp peanut butter, a banana then another banana, chai with little cream/sugar.
Early lunch: about 25-30oz spagetti/meat sauce & 1 meatball (left over)

I'll have 2 oranges for the late afternoon snack and no idea what's for dinner yet.


How do I make my daily intake more fullfilling but not fattening?
