What I Eat In A Day
What Supplements I Take
What (Fertility) Books I Read
While my meals in this vlog are focused on my fertility journey, these are almost the same meals I’ve been eating throughout my fitness journey, the macros are just a bit different. I was previously eating 30% protein, 40% carbs and 30% fats. I now eat 30% protein, 25% carbs and 45% fats.
If you have any experience with changing your diet for your fertility journey, I would love to hear how!! Anything you’d add to this video? I’d love to hear, I’m still learning, myself! :)
Thanks for all the love and support, as always! Can’t wait to share my next egg retrieval update! I get the final results tomorrow 🤞 wish me luck!! 😀

It always baffles me how avocados are mentioned together with Mediterranean. There are no avocados in the Mediterranean and no one ate them there until recently, when they began importing them from Central America as they became globally popular. They are amazing, and super healthy and are definitely great for fertility. But us (Mediterraneans) don’t normally eat them and we do eat red meat, especially lamb. So this is quite contradictory. Not this video per se but the message about Mediterranean fertility diet that’s out there in general :)
Team Anna! We are supporting you 100 percent
I love that you did this video 💕💕💕 so helpful for so many
This video was so super informative!! Thank you for sharing your journey 💙
Please do more of these style videos! Love your channel! Following your TTC journey.
So true...My husband is lactose intolerant, and we lived in Italy for 3 years, and he never ever had a problem when eating all the cheese and gelato!
I love your channel. What I love is that you are so real through your journey and on your fitness you are also so real and transparent about how we women struggle with bloating and training. Sometimes we are so hard with ourselves just by believing what we see on social media , sometimes people hide what they do in order to achieve what is consider a perfect body. Most importantly how we struggle after we have been through a pregnancy. Would love to see videos once you get pregnant and how you return after having a baby. Best of luck to both of you and much blessings on this journey.
Stasher silicone baggies! AMAZING. Have helped so much on my zero waste journey
Your meal plan is on point! You should try turmeric tea aka golden milk, it fights inflammation and helps you relax before bed.
I would be interested in a video about decreasing plastic!!!!! Great video! Soooo informative!
I would love a video on your reduced plastic use! Love the video :)
Hey a really good trick for rice when it’s going hard & it’s also good for the beef when dry. Add like a tablespoon of water to the rice cover it with a wet paper towel and microwave it. I promise you it will help soften it right up!

Finally someone who doesn't like avocados!! I thought I am the only one...Now I don't feel alone anymore :) Thanks for sharing your journey!
I am gluten/dairy/soy/corn/sugar free.
I eat healthy fats like avocado and coconut milk which I include in my smoothies. I eat pasture raised/hormone free eggs,beef and chicken. I eat wild caught salmon. I only drink filtered water which I drink out of my glass water bottle. I take prenatal, cod liver oil pills, CoQ10, Vitamin D, Liver pills and probiotic as my supplements. I drink bone broth about 3-4 times a week. Oh and I also add a green super food to my smoothie.
I have a 7 year old son but I’m ttc baby#2 naturally so I’ve been on this path the last few months.
Good luck to you 🙂
Awesome video!!! A lifestyle change/plastics reduction video would be awesome (trying to do this myself)
Thank you! Loved the video :)
I am dairy intolerant and 100% didn't have any issues when in Italy! I also thought that was sooo weird! Makes you wonder what they do to our food in North America that it bothers so many people 😬
Rigatoni eats veggies, too! So cute! Anna I have a question about eating that isn't infertility related... I noticed that in the regular meal plan of the app the recipes are mainly with chicken, there is only one with minced beef. Is there a reason for that? Can I sometimes substitute chicken for beef? Is there a suggested limit of consumption of red meat per week? I wish you and Luca all the best for IVF! I'm following your infertility journey and am impressed of how strong you are! Keep going!
I think that nutrition looks very tasty and healthy and I wondered cause it’s quite a lot what you ate at that time. I like that a sporty and thin person shows that it’s more important to eat well instead of eating nothing to become thin👌🏻
Would be very interested in seeing videos on food in Italy vs America and on eliminating the use of plastics
The gluten/dairy thing is so true ! I’m surprised your doctors didn’t speak about meat, eggs, and fish though. It’s much better to buy organic animal products. Same problem : lots of hormones and pesticides, especially in the US. Also, about olive oil, it’s good to eat it raw, but not cooked, it has a low smoke point and doesn’t handle heat. Avocado oil is great to use as cooking oil :)
I completely cut sugar out of my diet after 9 months of TTC, that same month my husband and I fell pregnant, unfortunately we lost our baby but I truly believe that a healthy diet helps! Good luck on your journey x
Totally. When I got pregnant after 14 months TTC, it was the month I cut sugars and coffee.
I would love to hear about reducing plastic because it’s really hard especially water😬
Love you Anna 😙💜
This is great info. All the measuring would stress me out!
Dude, the Europe effect is REAL! I have a history of autoimmune and gut problems. Spent two weeks this August in The Netherlands and could eat ALL the gluten and dairy products I wanted with ZERO side effects!! I felt and looked the best I ever had. It truly is all about how our food in the US is treated and processed. Since then I have been ordering European flour so I can still have bread 😆
Rachel Taylor I am European and never had issues, I came here and develop UC:(
@@alavidlak1096 😮
Thanks for this 😊
I would be very interested in a video on your reduction in the use of plastics! :)
I use silicone pouches sold on amazon and target or a glass jar for those snacks
Great video!! Thank you x
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
We tried for 2.5 years to get pregnant. I finally became pregnant in April by doing high fat low carb, cutting my stress like literally just not caring about house stuff and things that triggered my anxiety and stress as well as what I think did the most which was take vitex berry. The month I added in vitex I got pregnant.
Aoa....dear plzzz mujy detail mn apni diet bta dejey ...mujy b follow krni h
I've been made fun of all my life for not mixing my food together.. "Well it's all going to the same place!" Yea well I like to taste everything separate lol. Love the video, hope you and Luca are doing well! :)
Anna! I’m in nursing school in my pediatric rotation and we learned no honey for preggos or babies. I forgot what the rational was lol but I thought I’d tell you because I learned something new and I like sharing 😊
I believe it's because of botulism, I was told to steer clear of raw honey when pregnant as a pregnant woman's immune system drops deliberately, also steer clear of it in infants under 12 months "Raw honey has been shown to cause infant botulism." see medical government link www.betterhealth.vic.gov.au/health/conditionsandtreatments/botulism which is an Australia government health website. :)
Love your videos! Quick question…did you take Q-10 3 times a day when you were doing your injections?
Now that you’ve had the egg retrieval, have you changed what you eat to prepare for the transfer? I had my egg retrieval 3 days after you so I’ve been following your journey closely :)
OMG I'm getting hungry listening to the diet!
Even here in Europe, processed foods are processed foods. Breads, pastas and pastry are still highly refined processed food like products usually with a bunch of other questionable chemical ingredients.
How ever bad the term "low carb" sounds to some people, it usually just means not eating processed foods and eating a *balance* of whole foods. It looks like you have a good balance there! ....and, spinach and avocado are perfect smoothie partners!
Smartypants! I use those vitamins too bc they are the most accesible that have actual folate in them. I haven't been tested for mthfr (yet) but I just felt like my body didn't respond well to vitamins with folic acid in them.
My husband and I are meeting with a fertility specialist on Friday. Trying not to worry/think too much about it, while at the same time make sure I am prepared.
Same for the Dominican Republic ! Food in the US is just... sketchy, if that’s the word 😬 everytime I go back to my country I EATT and somehow I still manage to loose my belly and I eat the same... the way food is manufactured and grown is the difference. It’s just fresh..
I wish you showed us your whole week meal plan
I’m married to an Italian from bologna. Yes girl 100% food in America is pooorrrrr quality, esp the meat / milk products. It’s crazy how good we feel when we visit his home and how if we eat the same stuff in America we feel terrible!! We are gluten and dairy free for the most part unless it’s from Italy lol 😂
My doc has me on the same diet but for me, no bananas or apples bc they are so high in sugar, mainly just berries.
Hi! We are just starting our journey. I was curious how much salmon a week you eat like how many days as well as beef and chicken? Is it every single day for these? Thank you 😊
I wish this was the case for Celiac disease 😞 But unfortunately I can’t eat gluten or wheat of any kind from anywhere and I LOOOOVE Italian/mediterranean food. It’s my fav lol.
You can buy reusable baggies on amazon!

Hi Anna!! I hope you are doing well! I love your personality, your videos are one of my faves!! I soooo agree with you on dairy in USA/CANADA vs Europe!! I am originally from Russia, but I live in Canada. I try to be completely dairy free in Canada as I noticed that it causes crazy acne for me. My dilemma has always been the fact that when I lived in Russia I ate so much dairy and had no skin issues what so ever! Every time I go home to visit my family I indulge into all of the cheeses, milks, ice cream etc as it tastes sooo much better home, and I never ever have skin issues!! In fact, my skin is always better when I come back! This totally makes sense now!! :)
Hi Anna!! I am also trying to incorporate salmon for my fertility...I know wild salmon is best but has your doctor or you found that farm raised salmon is okay too or do they say it has to be wild (especially when eating it for fertility)? Also Is there another fish you eat or do you stick to salmon?
Hey. I absolutely love your Vids. Just wanted to make a suggestion. I work in the natural health industry. Try source organic oats. Just the gluten free ones still contain chemicals etc such as glyphosate and these are so bad for you.
MTHFR .. The word I can never pronounce. Me and my partner had 5 miscarriages back to back . But apparently I had MTHFR. I had to take folic acid too. It was such a tough time. But here I am with 3 😍😁
Hi Anna I see you are eating white rice, I'm struggling to choose what to eat I'm no gluten my diet is like yours but I end up eating one type of food every day
i watched your videos regarding fertility alot of time
can you tell me how much you take zinc, magnesium, vit b6 and vitamin c-- the amount in mg please.
Hi Beautiful! You’re doing amazing!!! I wanted to make a suggestion of switching your pans to ceramic, nonstick has been proven to be toxic. There is a brand called Ecolution that has a Bliss line which is a non-toxic nonstick cookware line (plenty of other lines out there too, just a good place to start if you’re curious about it). I know to each their own and stick with what makes you comfortable, but I wanted to let you know since you’re so amazing about being as natural and healthy as humanely possible! Wish you and your hubby all the best and so much baby dust!! ❤️🤗
I was just thinking about replacing our frying pan this morning, I'll look into the brand you mentioned, thanks!
Levina Duivesteijn you’re so welcome! 🤗
Is there anything inherently bad with carbs when trying to conceive or are you eating low carb simply because you're eating high fat?
I would like to you elaborate on plastics. Also, how do you cook your veggies?
And what brand is your pan? Looks lovely!
Me to both dairy and gluen free
Yummy!!
U are sooo pretty
I love your content and honesty. I really like watching your videos. But please try not to use so many kitchen towels for cutting... a cutting board works much better and is more sustainable
Hello. I went to SCRC, but had a different dr, im curious if your dr said to continue being dairy free and gluten free after you graduated (pregnant) . I had such a struggle with the amount of protein and calcium needed during this twin pregnancy, so im very curious if your dr ended up saying anything about continuing to be dairy free. I have endometriosis, which why i was shocked more than 3 dr's have said not to worry about being dairy free or even worry about the endometriosis during pregnancy.
Hi! I was dairy free for a very short period of time prior to getting pregnant. I ate lots of dairy in my pregnancy :)
super
You cook oat without milk?
I love this video and your healthy eating tips! But I do have to mention that peanut butter you use has palm oil in it.. :-(
I am gluten intolerant, lactose intolerant and soy intolerant... And Italian. I guess this means I'm very very very very VERY sensitive :) But years ago I lived for a period in Ireland and had milk with no problem T_T Can somebody explain that?
How many grams of fat a day are you trying to get?
Finally someone who hates avocado and spinach like me hehehe
Very nice video! y are you taking 5000 iu of vitamin D?? Isn’t it alot??
Instead of the paper towel to wrap your brazil nuts, maybe try bee's wrap??
I got UC in USA :(
I’m sensitive to gluten and get migraines when I eat gluten. Now I want to move to Europe so that I can gluten 😂
Same. I had chronic migraines for the longest time. Never could figure out the trigger. Ended up very sick with Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome. And although they don't know what causes it, it's more common in people with a history of migraines. During the last episode I ever had on a whim I decided to quit eating gluten. 5 years later, no migraines and no more episodes of vomiting.
I would just hold off the cinnamon when you try to get pregnant/early pregnancy. Look it up, it may cause miscarriage.
Those are good ideas , but one mistake your doing is using the microwave ❤️💯
And without covering it
Microwaving your food zaps it of so much nutrition so it sort of defeats the purpose of eating healthy.
Actually not the case! In face the way microwaves work keep vitamins in some vegetables that would disappear in water/steam. Microwaves are really good at preserving nutrients. There was a totally unfounded media scare about microwaves back in the 80s which made people believe they are bad for you.
Microwave it’s not good just saying.
Yeah and I think she didnt cover the the food while microwaving it
