I gave up a lot of things for a healthy pregnancy including coffee, tea, sugar, chocolates, and processed food. Now, my son is nearly 3 and I haven't missed any of the above. Not sure if these tips help, but here goes. - Wake up early in the morning just as the sun comes out. I wake up around 5.30 AM. Enjoy the quiet and meditate (Whichever way you find comfortable - pray, do yoga, or just sit still in the outdoors and soak in the environment or write your thoughts in a journal) 10mins is a good starting point. You can stretch it to half an hour if you enjoy the task. - Have a large glass of water after you brush. Then in place of your coffee or tea have a glass of milk. Go for a brisk walk. - Then enjoy making your breakfast. You'll appreciate eating it after. - Pack up some fresh fruits that you like to snack on at work. Whenever you feel like having coffee, have a fruit or drink water. - If you feel low or distracted, go bond with a cheery colleague. You will come back with a renewed focus to your work. - Have your lunch on time. By 1 - 1.30 PM. Include fresh vegetables. They can uplift your mood. - Go for a walk in the evening as well. - Have your dinner around 7.30 - 8 PM - If you have a partner or family or roommates, dinner time is a good time to bond. Share the fun things that happened during the day and also whatever stressed you out. - Go to sleep around 9 - 9.30 PM. An hour after your dinner. Dont be too harsh on yourself if you crave the occasional coffee once in a while. Your lifestyle changes should have a higher purpose (for me it was the health of the unborn - the best I can do for him) and it should be fun not an imposition. In short, change your sleeping and eating habits, and connect with real people to free yourself from unhealthy mood stimulants. Hope this helps you!
