I eat pretty healthy for the most part but i also treat myself often. As long as i balance i feel okay. When she started talking about eating disorder and pregnancy it hit me hard. With my first i would binge eat i also had depression and body dysmorphia and felt SO GUILTY about it because i was growing my beautiful baby i shouldnt have felt that way. It was hard to overcome and i always will have it in the back of my mind but my kids motivate me everyday.

[@AsIs]

Your body is awesome. You grew babies! tiny humans! You did that!👏

[@kelsiefletcher]

@@AsIs thank you! Ive come to love my body because of how strong and incredible it is. Growing a baby is hard but its the best blessing!

[@imasimp7082]

Lindsay and Jazzmine are my two favorite combo ! Love to see them together again 💖

[@VitoxCzechia]

Hi, can I have a question? As/Is is my favorite channel. I am a man, so I watched just a few videos about neutral topics. In January they lose 100 000 subscribed by SocialBlade. Did they do something controversial?

[@MikkiMagic]

It's funny that Jazz was craving a pbj because that's been one of my cravings this past week. I'm 29 weeks pregnant!

[@paytonteffner1270]

Same those terrible Smuckers and toster strudel were life back then

[@dannienewtzel5270]

PB&J and string cheese were my midnight snack when I was pregnant :-D

[@scienceisfun4868]

I survived on pbj especially during the morning sickness stage

[@shevahauser1780]

I ate peanut butter on rice cakes ! I normally don't like it. Also had alot of salty cheese, pickles and olives... And spicy salsa. Non of which I really like normally-- I think we just crave extra salt. And my taste buds changed

[@sugarmalerv]

YES! I’ve had like a whole loaf of it and I’m in the first lol

[@HomemakerSuzy]

We just found out we are expecting, and I cried watching Jaz talking about food. I think we should normalize talking about these struggles, because it may help someone. I've never had an eating disorder and am still struggling about what I can and can't eat, let alone new cravings and aversions. Thank you ladies

[@vanmanne]

I'm pregnant and all these meals look sooooo good 👍 I can relate with Jazzmine, I've had disordered eating behaviors in the past and still struggle now, and its been difficult to keep my head above water, and not overthink every meal. I LOVE how honest you were Jazzmine, it's good to hear that this is being talked about.

[@mimi97luvschivas]

I am pregnant, and these videos always go extreme. The diet to follow is not that complicated. You can enjoy sweets like that donut, you just need to also eat healthy. You just avoid things that can cause salmonella like raw or uncured foods, and you can have up to 350mg of coffee! That’s almost three regular cups of coffee!

[@kelsiefletcher]

Girl right lol i have a 17m old and a 7mo. I eat pretty well im general. But i def had my snacks and chocolates and the occasional coffee(it made me sick). My guiltiest pleasure was hot cheetos with guacamole. Lol

[@YukiKuranIkuKasahara]

Yup! I avoided all caffeine during my first pregnancy, this time I’m having as much as I need . Which Usually no more than two. Lol I can’t function without it .

[@BriannaxDash]

✨Disclaimer at the beginning of the video ✨

[@savannahellis8888]

Exactly!!! And the unpasteurized cheeses and juices thing, most juices and cheese are all pasteurized. Cheese in the US are all pasteurized or they cant legally be sold.... and the only juice i cant think of that isnt is farm fresh apple cider.... lol

[@sarahprince2412]

@@WebbyLinster But Lindsay, even pregnant women won't have a list as extreme as this. So, it doesn't make sense if you are trying to follow what actual pregnant women eat. Yes there are things that make sense on that list but you should see what an obstetrician would recommend since that IS their specialty. I'm sure their list would be different.

[@breonnanikole6194]

I'm 16 weeks pregnant and I'm telling you, I eat what I want! Baby and I are healthy as can be! Being pregnant is hard enough without a list of "rules" to follow!

[@aleishatheawesome]

It's really nice to hear somebody talk about pregnancy with disordered eating because it's definitely a massive hurdle that nobody talks about. I feel seen haha 💕

[@shehreenkhan2317]

Where I live in Canada it's really common to pair french fries with mayo! The best is mixing ketchup in the mayo, makes the perfect fry sauce!!!

[@kaginalauraarc4658]

Thank you, I live in Rwanda (Africa) and like everyone has their fries with ketchup and mayo

[@MK-pj8wr]

Yes! Mayo with gravy even. Like mayo with poutine

[@watsonxox7145]

Same for The Netherlands!

[@Natnat994]

As an American, I find it ridiculous that if we use the term french fries and mayonnaise here, it's disgusting but if we say french fries and aioli (which is the same thing) people are like mmmm delicious. Ketchup is soooo basic...elevate yourself America.

I feel like a body builder… I am building a body inside of me 😂😂😂

[@ashfoxwell4029]

Jazz!!! When I was hearing about you speak about disordered eating I really felt kindred. My kiddo is 19 months now and it has been quite a journey to get to the healthy place I am at now. I didn’t have a doctor during pregnancy that paid attention to my history with mental health, disordered eating, or dysphoria. I gained 60 pounds during pregnancy and was shamed at multiple visits. I looked and felt healthy and bloodwork was perfect. I wish I would have reached out more to people about how i was feeling. It’s so common to feel this way!

[@alibestler]

I

[@sophiapeterson3686]

Much love to you Jazz! The struggle of wanting to eat perfect is so real during this time. Thank you for your openness about this and bringing attention to something that so many pregnant people struggle with. Parents are not perfect. I am 38 weeks pregnant and I don't eat perfect, but it's about self-love and giving not about perfection.

[@dannienewtzel5270]

The lightening crotch and round ligament pain put the biggest stop on walking and rotation exercises. Orange juice in my 3rd trimester would have made me eat a whole bottle of tums lol

[@ACC-2929]

When I was pregnant I was too lazy too cook and ate out a lot or husband/mom cooked for me and didn’t have energy to work out… I still pushed out my healthy babies just fine :) lol. But it’s always enjoyable to watch these two ladies take on a challenge.

[@tiffanyjosts9066]

Yes! I usually love to cook, but I can barely walk in the kitchen due to nausea, or I’m just too tired! Take out for the win!

[@abbybrown638]

Yea really if all of you are alive, it's good. I had really bad round ligament pain and could barely stand to do dishes. Baby is still pretty smart despite the chicken sandwiches.

[@xoShannonNicolexo]

I’m so glad Jazz is talking about her ed during this series bc I think it’s thing people struggle with and perhaps didn’t realize how much it would affect them. But the body is growing without your control n that can be super triggering for people

[@shellsyeahh]

I think the fact that you bought the donut would count as a pregnancy craving because my mother in law dropped off lemon cakes for me by the box. 🤣

[@kayleeb2354]

I love your guys videos you both are so inspiring and Jazzy I’m am so proud of you and as someone who had a eating disorder you are not alone and I love you ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@charliewall4214]

I love that they brought up eating habits and eating disorders I got pregnant 2 years ago and have a healthy beautiful 2-year-old now but you don't really hear about eating disorders while pregnant so I got judged a lot while I was pregnant because I don't eat very much during the day I eat maybe one meal if I'm lucky if I can convince myself that one meal will be fine and during pregnancy I had to train myself to eat three meals a day which was difficult and you don't hear a lot about the struggles with eating because women are so ashamed to have any problems in their pregnancy that they hide it and it doesn't get talked about so I love that this video touched on eating disorders while pregnant because I felt so alone during my pregnancy because of my eating disorder

Me finishing my coffee watching this 8 months pregnant with my second; eating any and everything 🤣

[@henshawklh]

I loved this video. I did giggle though, when you talked about not pooping but eating a banana. Banana is good when your are pooping loose but not so much for constipation. Prunes are better for constipation. It's a universal go to in health care facilities.. dried, stewed, juice ...hot juice with or without a shot of cayenne...it all helps.

[@paytonteffner1270]

Also having an ex ED for 5 years and then getting pregnant was so difficult. I wanted to be nurturing to my baby but also wanted to restrict. All I can say is I lucky got past it and decided it's his life that is more important than me. And postpartum is the worst thinking you'll never be that skinny again and you won't. My hips are 3 sizes bigger after giving birth and no matter how much weight I loose they will never be that small again. It's just something you're willing to risk for your baby. And it's ABSOLUTELY WORTH IT.

[@abcdefgold]

I just think I can't ever be pregnant knowing it changes your body permanently 😭

[@mrscarter6279]

Mom of 3 kids. I think some folks over analyze how to eat during pregnancy. Speaking for myself , I eat like I normally did but tried to keep things in moderation. On occasion did did I inhale a box of cookies? Yes. And that’s why my kids are so sweet 😁. But no seriously, be realistic try to move every day, go to your appointments and for the most part you should be alright (not talking about high risk pregnancies or special circumstances)

[@bellalove2896]

I had cancer but I'm all better now and why wasn't hospital I was watching your videos but actually my mum's just so

[@shoopdawoop14]

I'm in my second trimester! Just trying to get my good old walks in have a dog so that definitely helps me to move more

[@KRandR0205]

This is soooo unrealistic lol. My doctor only told me to avoid *maybe* half of those foods. If you followed everything this extreme you would just stress out yourself and the baby.

[@sarahprince2412]

Agreed. Personally they should have consulted with an ACTUAL obstetrician to see what they would say when it comes to diets. I guarantee they would give you a list that would not be as extreme as this list which would then not stress out the mother and baby as you said. Midwives have knowledge but they are nowhere near as trained as an actual obstetrician(whose specialty is pregnancy) which IS an actual doctor. A midwife is NOT a doctor people. You need to remember that. Everyone has their own personal choice but don't assume a midwife can give you the same advice as a doctor. So I think it would be smart if they redid this video correctly and got advice from a doctor as well as a midwife to get well rounded advice. I have nothing against midwives but let's get some actual doctors in here as well who specializes in pregnancy.

[@marissakondas2894]

@@sarahprince2412 a CNM is a Certified Nurse Midwife and is a graduate level medical professional who specializes in prenatal and past natal care. They are a nurse and have a masters and even a doctorate in nursing. They are qualified to be there for low-medium risk pregnancies the only thing they don't do is C-sections and usually don't accept multiplies (twins, triplets, ect). So they are more than qualified to answer these questions on diet/ health. They already stated in the video they were taking it to the extreme.

I am 7 weeks preg with our first baby & am 5’2. I am shorts a considered big. I also have PCOS. So it’s a bit scary to be 45 pounds over my “should be” weight and pregnant. But it’s also scary how severe some people get when pregnant. When we told my mom she said she’s a little worried so wants me to just keep moving.

My biggest issue while pregnant is eating! I hate eating when I don't feel good... Nausea, acid reflux, belly pains... All the time, then eating on top of it is the most challenging thing I've dealt with my whole pregnancy!

[@danikashirley4958]

This is a bit much as a person who has been pregnant twice. I was not that strict with my eating, I always had a cup of coffee in the morning especially after my second I needed that energy and I breastfed both kids 1+ year my kids are happy healthy cqme out weight 7lbs. But everyone is different and every pregnancy is different too. If I was to have another I'll do better about eating and exercising more!

There was no support for me when being pregnant with B.E.D. it was a hard time, bc i hurt not only myself but my baby too. Its important to point out that most of the 'rules' are recomendations, and you shouldent beat yourself up if you cant follow religiously... Remember being kind to yourself!
