Ok, so you know I'm pregnant (6 months) and my major problem right now is too many carbs and not enough protein. I never used to be quite so bad, but lately it's all I find myself eating! So reading your post I got "reminded" of some types of protein I could be eating, like...turkey bacon/soy sausage, etc. My problem is I can't do eggs or egg whites--about 5 years ago they started giving me stomach aches for who knows what reason. And beans--well, can't do too much of those for GI reasons.
So..I know you said you don't snack but I pretty much HAVE to or I'll die (not really), so I need better snack ideas. My doctor is ok with my weight gain so far, and I've been going to the gym for treadmill/elliptical and swimming a few times a week so I don't feel like a sloth. But I've been feeling a real lack of protein and a decreased satisfaction from eating lately, you know what I mean?
Oh--and I can tolerate a lot more foods than most people on these boards, luckily. Like artifical sweeteners, dairy, etc. I avoid certain veggies and beans and eggs and avocados (sniff sniff). I need help thinking I want muffins, and cake, and bagels, and cookies, and on and on.. Thanks!
