Recently, Guan Ying posted photos of her vacation in Hawaii on Weibo. Although she said that her \”waist is gone, her back is thicker, her arms are thicker, and her feet are swollen,\” from the photos, although she looks a little pregnant, she can\’t tell that she is an expectant mother who is nearly 5 months pregnant. It can even be said that the figure is still hot.
I believe every pregnant mother wants to be like Guan Ying, who will not gain weight even if she is pregnant. During pregnancy, because it is necessary to meet the needs of fetal growth and development, it is necessary to ensure comprehensive nutrition. So how to ensure comprehensive nutrition without gaining weight?
1. Eat vegetables like fruits
Fruits are rich in vitamins, which are not only necessary for the human body, but also beneficial to the absorption of iron. However, they cannot be eaten without restraint, because fruits contain a lot of sugar, which is easy to gain weight and may lead to gestational diabetes.
It is better to eat some delicious vegetables as fruits, or eat them with fruits. For example, combine oranges and cucumbers for an orange-cucumber salad; or combine carrots and apples for a juice. Of course, you can also eat tomatoes, cherries, radishes, etc. as fruits, or drink cucumber juice instead of juice, which is also a good way.
2. The main cooking methods for meat are frying, roasting and stewing.
When cooking meat, it is easy to consume too much nutrients in braised meat, because a large amount of cooking wine, sugar, and soy sauce are added when \”braised in braised meat\”, and these seasonings are also very high in calories.
Therefore, red meat can be cooked by frying, roasting, or stewing during pregnancy, such as grilled lamb chops, beef stew, etc. with olive oil, herbs and sea salt. But be careful not to grill meat over an open flame, but use an oven to avoid scorching and the production of carcinogens.
3. Use beans, corn, sweet potatoes, etc. as staple food
Adjust the structure of the staple food, eat less refined white rice and white flour, and appropriately add beans and grains to the staple food, such as steaming a bowl of multigrain rice. Alternatively, eating sweet potatoes, corn, and taro as the main food can absorb more dietary fiber, promote intestinal peristalsis, and relieve constipation that often occurs during pregnancy. It\’s also a great way to keep weight gain off slowly.
4. Arrange dinner time in advance and insist on taking a walk after meals
If you can develop the habit of eating small meals frequently during pregnancy, it will also be very beneficial to weight control.
At the same time, you can also advance your dinner time by an hour. After taking a short rest after the meal, you can go for a walk for 30-45 minutes, which can consume a certain amount of calories. Moderate exercise can also help natural childbirth.
5. Keep weighing yourself every day
Buy an electronic scale and weigh it accurately every day. It can not only monitor your baby\’s growth and development, but also effectively help control your baby\’s weight.
