subject: Foods To Eat When Pregnant - How To Eat Whatever You Want And Still Stay In Shape While Pregnant! [print this page] Wondering about what foods to eat when pregnant? If you think eating what you want is going to make you fat during pregnancy then you are WRONG. The trick to staying in shape while still eating what you want is in HOW you eat, and not entirely on WHAT you eat.
The pace of eating - Whatever you're eating, eat it THIS way!
Did you know that the pace in which you eat has an effect on the way you digest your food? For one thing, most people don't chew their foods well, they think their stomachs have teeth! Chewing is in the mouth. Make sure you TAKE YOUR TIME while you chew. Basically, make sure you chew everything in your mouth before you swallow.
Another major point about the pace of eating is that you need to eat slowly. That is, again, chew your food well because it will help with slowing the pace of eating. Wondering why this is good for you while you're pregnant? The reason is you'll get full quicker, and you will avoid binging and will feel satisfied sooner.
You can eat the "bad" foods this way and still be healthy!
The only way you can be healthy by eating bad foods is by eating very little portions of it. Say you want a cheese cake, ok? If you are craving it a little, you don't have to eat a whole slice. A few bites will do just fine-it will satisfy the craving, AND it will not do your diet harm, especially during pregnancy.
