This is the Pursuit of Wellness podcast and I'm your host Mari Llewellyn. What is up guys? Welcome back to another solo episode with me. Today we're talking about my current nutrition and workouts. I am 16 weeks pregnant, but I'm also just someone who cares about health and nutrition.
And even if you're not pregnant and you're listening, I think this will be beneficial because I'm still focused on protein and muscle and things like that. But obviously it looks a little bit different now that I am pregnant. I just hit the 16 week mark today. which is so exciting. Every time I hit a new week mark, I just am like so excited and so grateful.
The baby is the size of an avocado today. Oh, I keep forgetting you guys know the gender now, so I can say he is the size of an avocado. Love that. I am in my second trimester. I feel really good. My energy is definitely up lately.

Now I'm in my second trimester, I feel a bit more myself again, and I'm able to really get back to nutrient dense good foods, which I have been focused on the whole time, but now I just feel a bit more in a rhythm. So let's talk about nutrition first.
And what I like to do is kind of walk you guys through a sort of typical what I eat in a day currently and fill you in on the things I'm eating because I am quite repetitive, I think. But I'll also tell you things that I'm sprinkling in there every now and again because I am...
someone who's really obsessed with nutrition and ingredients and i know that there are certain things to incorporate in your diet that are good for the baby's development but i'll just kind of give you an idea of what i'm eating and i actually did film uh what i eat in a day recently which i haven't done in so long but i know people are interested i'm just kind of always hesitant with that stuff because people can be so intense when it comes to food which is so interesting but anyway i'm
