Lunch- Spokane, Washington, USA

Hi VEG! My name is Laura, and I am 30 years old, 33 weeks pregnant, and I work at a private university in Spokane, WA., USA.

This is a picture of my lunch today:

I am having two open-faced ham and swiss cheese sandwiches on rice & corn cakes, a whole avocado with lime and salt, and 1/2 c. of fresh blueberries!

I am gluten intolerant (my body cannot tolerate gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, rye and triticale), and I also have gestational diabetes! I manage my gestational diabetes through diet, so keeping my carbohydrate intake within certain limits is very crucial! Also, I cannot have sweets, as I am only allowed a certain number of carbohydrates a day, so I get the most out of them by eating fresh fruit and whole grains!

Also, you can't see it in my picture, but I have a big bottle of water for my drink.

Food-O-Meter: 10/10 I pack my own lunches, so I will only pack what I want to eat!
Mouthfuls: 30 give or take
Course: Main/side/dessert
Health Rating: 9/10
Price: Probably less than $2.50

Carb count: about 30 g. of carbs total.
Baby kicks while eating: about 10 or so, plus a couple somersaults!


Keep up the great work!
