What are you eating today, ladies??



(Quick change from UO since we had two started at the same time!)

We live near a Russian bakery and I just got blinchiki with ground beef inside. It's not even 11am. I like to tell myself that baby needs the protein even though baby isn't going to be sharing my food for a while.

I know I SHOULD eat an apple right now, but all I WANT is a brownie.

@cait32 I am in the same boat with never feeling settled, but suddenly starving.

AFM: I am eating all the carbs. Macaroni, alfredo with noodles, mashed potatoes. Mmm.

I was walking through the grocery store and saw the cinnamon bears on the candy isle. The last pregnancy was all about peppermints, I can see cinnamon being the nausea calmer this time. Although at the moment I'm wondering how many I can eat before all the sugar makes me sick. Sigh.

All I want is meat. And tomatoes.  So I just went and got a huge cheeseburger with extra pickles and tomatoes. It is soooooo good.

No aversions/cravings have started yet for me, so I'm trying to eat well while I can! It helps that I'm not terribly hungry (except in the middle of the night when I can't sleep and am ravenous).

Last night I couldn't figure out what I wanted to get for dinner (DH wanted to order pizza and that is not appetizing at all to me). I all of the sudden WANTED onion rings. I had to have them. And a meatball sub.

Other than those, I really just want apples. Right now, I look forward to my afternoon snack of an apple.

Right now it's left over halloween candy lol. Last pregnancy I craved crunchy lettuce, ranch and raw onions like no one's business, as well as vanilla ice cream and drumsticks. I'm thinking the pizza and teriyaki chicken places next door are going to get a lot of my business (although who am I kidding, they already do)

I'm so tired of food. I had a tofu pad thai for lunch.

Nothing really looks good to me lately. I have a chocolate bar I've been eating for three days (which is unlike me, usually chocolate is always gone the same day lol). Last night I had plain pasta with a little butter and chicken and it was like the BEST thing ever because I didn't feel *too* sick afterward. Anything with real flavor makes me nauseous even when it tastes good.

I had about half of a small chicken last night, yum!

Breakfast: Starbucks sausage sandwich split with DD and a steamed vanilla milk 

Snack: sliced apple split with DD

lunch: spinach salad with cranberries and almonds (it's a kit from Costco, comes with chicken, but I don't like cold meat)

dinner will be something from Baja Fresh.

I'm still early enough that aversions haven't set in and I only feel a little nauseated a few quick times a day, so, like @mamadcb I'm trying to be healthy for the moment: had avocado toast with tomato for breakfast and salmon with an avocado and tomato salad for lunch. All I TRULY want, though, is carbs.

2beautifulboys

Bread, bread and more bread and cheese.  Plus all that candy that is lying around from the halloween.  I'm bringing most of it to the dentist today to rid the house of it.  You get 1 dollar per pound.  My eldest can keep the money and his teeth, lol.

2beautifulboys

Oh and any other carbs going.

Itsnotyourturn

Potato soup.  All of it.  Everything sweet makes me feel gross, which is lame because I have a serious sweet tootth usually.

Food is pretty standard for me but I have had a desire for a glass of milk. I never drink milk but I really want some.

kat0607

I want hard boiled eggs for every meal. I wouldn't say it's a true craving because it's not an insatiable desire, but I find myself wanting them for breakfast lunch and dinner because they just taste so good to me. Like many have said already, I'm trying to continue with a healthy diet, even though my appetite is almost non-existent especially in the morning, which is unusual for me. 

pepper16-2

@kat0607 OOoohhhh hard boiled eggs!!! Craving one, now that you mention it!! Going to make a batch asap

realgoodthing

Update: I just ate a brownie because I could. not. stop. thinking about it.

pepper16-2

@leilac Right there with you. 

MimoCa

@leilac I just bought 3 Cadbury toasted almond bars and they were delicious! Lol

jsweet-2

I have my milk. But I really actually want now is a milk with a brownie so ... 

JAM85

I vacillate between wanting nothing and being grossed out by everything and wanting to eat all the sweets. I've mostly been eating exactly the same or less because most of the time i'm vaguely grossed out by everything but I learned last time that eating protein often was key to keeping nausea at bay especially in the earlier stages. I did have 2 caramel truffles from a local chocolate shop though 

lauraash

This morning I was craving a fried egg sandwich with pepperjack on toast. It was amazing. And milk which is weird because I was low carb for the most part before this and milk wasn't in the house - I drank two big glasses today. So good. 

kghusker1003

The only time I like milk is when I am pregnant. It has to be ice ice cold though. Almost frozen.

spk112

frozen grapes. 

Also I really, really want some chocolate donuts. 

SaphireSweetie88

Funyuns, funyuns and more funyuns with maybe a hotdog or hard boiled egg....

After my partner walks back from the kitchen empty handed
Me:oh, no fritos?
Him: I thought I was going out for teriyaki chicken
Me: can't I have both?

Bonus: he's taking the toddler with him to pick it up!!

Apparently my yummy dinner tonight of fresh bread with EVOO, a chicken pasta dish, and a couple bites of ice cream (the apple crisp was too sweet) was enough to give me heartburn. Ugh. But that chicken pasta dish was amazing and I am looking forward to lunch tomorrow.

manillabar

@theglitteredpterodactyl ooohh... teriyaki chicken. I think I need that now!

RubyRedPirate

I haven't had any cravings or aversions yet, but there are some days I want to eat everything and others I can go all day just eating a cheese stick and a granola bar. I did discover that pizza is a no go. I have heartburn in the morning but we had pizza the other night and it took all i had to not vomit lava. I was sick to my stomach all night. With my first pregnancy I craved cinnamon applesauce like crazy. With my second pregnancy I was obsessed with baby carrots and ranch. 

Today I'm going to make bruschetta chicken. MMM!

Bonbonpaw

Birthday cake and lots of it!! 

mrs35

Chicken quesadillas. It's all I've eaten for two days.
