Pregnancy Diet Snack Coco-Oat Bites

Life is BUSY! I know! Trying to juggle work, kids ( if you have more), hubby, home, cooking, on top of being pregnant is no easy task. And what I find, is that most women let go of their health and fitness because it's so overwhelming. But there is no more important time to focus on your health and fitness than during PREGNANCY.
The good news is that it doesn't have to be overwhelming. You a still be healthy and fit while pregnant. All you need is some strategies, some quick and easy recipes like the one I am going to give you today and you are all set.
Where there is a WILL, there is a WAY.
My friend, if you really want to be fit and healthy, you can do it. And I am here to help you along the way because I know the benefits of being healthy during your pregnancy. If you don't know, check them out here: Benefits of Exercise during Pregnancy.
I exercised during both my pregnancies. I did my Fit Mom-to-Be Workouts and I only gained 20 lbs. during each one, and I lost all my baby weight in less than 1 month. It sounds crazy, but it's not. And I know this because I work with thousands upon thousands of pregnant women who do my Fit Mom-to-Be Workouts also and get the same results. Of course, they eat healthy as well, but don't worry, I am going to give you tons of tips to help you eat healthy too, because it isn't just beneficial for you, it's good for your BABY as well.
Check this out.

Also, I want to share with you what some of the pregnant women I work with have said about exercise during pregnancy. I'm hoping this will motivate and inspire you to exercise and eat healthy as well. Because I know that coming from me, you may say "Oh, well, she's a trainer". But here are some real women, just like YOU!
And also, check out what the NEWS has to say about PREGNANT FITNESS & DIET, they interviewed me about it, and it's super informative.


The hardest part for most women is the cooking and eating healthy. But don't worry, I have tons of amazingly easy and delicious healthy recipes to help you during your pregnancy. But before I just give you a recipe, let me give you something even more valuable.
I'm going to give you a NUTRITION GUIDE with exactly what to eat, all the RECIPES, good SNACK OPTIONS, etc. So that you can get an idea of how you should be eating during your pregnancy so that you can be healthy, be creating the best possible environment for your baby, and so that you don't gain EXCESS WEIGHT so that you are not super uncomfortable all during your pregnancy and feeling huge and self-conscious. And so that you can lose all your baby weight fast postpartum.
I made this 2-Week Nutrition Guide to give away for FREE to all my Prego's because I work with so many in my Fit Mom-to-Be Workout Program that always have so many NUTRITION questions. So, I figured I would make this in an easy to read, print and follow way to help you take the guesses out of how to eat optimally during your pregnancy.
If you follow it and you EXERCISE, you will not just have a great pregnancy but you will feel CONFIDENT, RADIENT, GLOWING. You won't be uncomfortable and have aches and pains because you've gained so much weight. You will have an easier labor and delivery. You will sleep better, have more energy and you will seriously decrease your chances of falling into POSTPARTUM DEPRESSION.
I can't wait for you to get this NUTRITION GUIDE, the recipes are amazing, and there are so many different options for snacks. You are going to love it. Download it here: PREGNANCY NUTRITION GUIDE
