At 37 weeks pregnant, Jessica’s meal prep blitz will blow your mind

With swollen ankles and at 37 weeks pregnant, mum-of-three Jessica May Magill has been meal prepping like a BOSS! Proving if she can do it, anyone can.

She has made a WHOPPING 152 serves of dinner/lunch and 228 snacks so that her whole family can maintain their healthy eating lifestyle throughout those sleep-deprived early days of a new baby.

WOW! Prepared to be blown away with what she has made.

 

Living a healthy life

Jessica May McGill understands the benefits of The Healthy Mommy program. Having joined The Healthy Mommy 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge shortly after having her second baby she was able to lose 20kg and completely transform her lifestyle.

She says “I joined The Healthy Mommy three years ago when my second bub was born. I lost 20kgs in six months using The Healthy Mommy 28 Day Challenge  and maintained that weight loss until I fell pregnant with baby number three.”

 

“After a Healthy Mommy pregnancy, I lost 37 lbs in eight months before falling pregnant with baby number four and have been enjoying another Healthy Mommy pregnancy.”

Meal prep and pregnancy – preparing for sleep-deprived nights

We are in awe of Jessica’s commitment to living a Healthy Mommy lifestyle and are AMAZED by all the delicious meals she has prepared.

She understands all too well that when are you in the fog of exhaustion and sleep deprivation with a new baby, it is all too easy to slip into bad habits of takeaway and junk food.

Determined to maintain her Healthy Mommy lifestyle before and after the baby arrives she has meal prepped a huge amount of healthy and nutritious meals and snacks for her family.

Jessica says “I am almost 37 weeks with my fourth bubba and my eldest is only 4, so life is about to get (even more) crazy!

I spent today in the kitchen and while I no longer have ankles, I now have two full freezers ready for when bub arrives!”

“Everything I made was vegan (except for kids scrolls) and lots are nut free for preschool lunch boxes, showing you can eat yummy food with allergies or food preferences thanks to the amazing Healthy Mommy 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge recipe hub and filters.

All up I made 152 serves of dinner/lunch and 228 snacks!

I know I will be starving while breastfeeding and my kids are massive snackers, so now I can relax and know we all have healthy options sorted”.

Healthy eating during and after pregnancy

While Jessica does not restrict her calories while pregnant she has taken advantage of being a Healthy Mommy Challenge member by simply following recipes in the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge hub and eating the recommended calories per day to maintain a healthy pregnancy.

“This body’s grown three healthy huge bubbas in less than four years, so how could I not love it?! Thanks to The Healthy Mommy I’m healthier and happier than ever,” says Jessica.

“I’ll never go back! I love The Healthy Mommy! It’s so family friendly, I’m never hungry and I’m never bored.”

The Healthy Mommy would like to congratulate Jessica for this epic meal prep while pregnant. We are thrilled that she will be able to put her feet up and enjoy those blissful, early days with her baby without having to even think about cooking.
