In the third trimester, my mother prepares weighing scale. I weigh myself on an empty stomach every morning. I don't want to gain more than a pound or two every day. The weight gain in a week should be controlled at about half a catty. If I weigh myself this morning, I should pay attention to my diet today.
Do not eat: there are drinks, barbecues, cream, instant noodles and other high-content foods.
Eat less: cakes, nuts, polished rice, noodles, too sweet fruit,
Eat more: miscellaneous grains such as beans and potatoes, or fungi.
How to eat?
For example, red beans, mung beans, black beans, some miscellaneous beans such as black rice and oats, as well as potatoes and sweet potatoes should be prepared at home. For example, we can soak red beans and black beans the night before and cook them with rice in a pressure cooker the next day. We can also put some sweet potatoes on the rice and eat it while it is hot. This can increase our intake of dietary fiber. If you eat more dietary fiber, your calorie intake will decrease. It also helps to prevent constipation in the third trimester.
Control the amount of fruit you eat, especially sweet fruit. Many people can eat as much fruit as they want. For example, they eat grapes, not one by one, but one by one, about 20 a day. It is not recommended to eat fruit after 5 pm, because the fructose content in fruit is relatively high, which will easily lead to our weight gain and blood sugar increase.
Try to diversify your food. Try to eat 30 kinds of food every day. The less each kind, the better. For example, when we go shopping in the supermarket, we try to buy raw materials such as live fish, meat and vegetables instead of prepackaged foods such as peanut butter, fish sauce and roast chicken.
Controlling weight means looking at your own balance, keeping your mouth shut, eating scientifically and exercising moderately.
