What my Pregnant Self is Eating...

I actually had an appetite today, and went big. I had a beef gyro and disco fries, and they were amazing! I'm hoping it doesn't back fire on me later.

OMG this gyro sounds good. What are disco fries?

@ssthomps I'm envious of gals with veggie and meat cravings too. I know my body could really use both. Hopefully our diets can balance out more come 2nd trimester. 

Btw I definitely will have to try the OJ for nausea

Let me know if the OJ helps.

We had outback for my brothers birthday last night then cake and ice cream when we got home. All I want for every meal now is steak. Give me all of the meat.

@ssthomps they are French fries convered in mozzarella cheese and gravy. A jersey dinner specially. They are soooooo good.

I just ate a raspberry Danish. I also bought those Hostess cherry pies, Hostess orange cupcakes, American cheese, and white bread. I'm pretty much eating like I did when I was five because that's all that sounds good (including making my grilled cheese by wrapping it in foil and pressing it with an iron like my mom used to do). Also, pepperoni pizza Hot Pockets and vanilla ice cream for later. Literally my diet as a kid.

I stay hungry, start to eat, then feel sick. I love eating out and it’s really put a damper on it knowing I’m going to feel sick. That being said I have been craving jalepeno poppers.

janinemaxwell

Like poutine here in Canada, sounds do good right now lol 

7425cait

^ yeah very similar. So good. 

I just had an American cheese sandwich with tomatoes, salt, pepper, and some mayo. It hit the spot so well for my sandwich craving.

Little cups of Chef Boyardee ravioli and pasta were 10/$10 at the grocery store. So I bought ten. I forgot how much I used to love this when I was a kid.

A veggie sub from subway. Suddenly I want veggie subs all the time.

I love chef boyardee mini raviolis. Flame away.

jsnakehole

@7425cait I had one for lunch. It was amazing. 

My school cafeteria used to serve Chef Boyardee ravioli every other week, with a side salad that was 50/50 iceberg lettuce and vinegar. It was amazing. I work at the same school I went to, and the same head lunchlady is still there and she's always trying to get me to eat the cafeteria food. I would, if it were ravioli.

We made chicken for dinner (first mistake), but after it was done I made a PB&J. I was craving salty all week, but now I need sweet.

Kraft three cheese shells...the only Mac and cheese I like and it’s amazing, with buffalo sauce. I’m craving kid food this weekend.

I’m not craving anything but old staples don’t taste right. I made ham and perogies for dinner tonight...nope ham didn’t taste right. Salads are turning my stomach. Craving Christmas oranges but they’re all gone!

stefjm2009

All I want are baked potatoes (butter with salt & pepper) pickles, pb & j's or peanut butter on toast.

@ladygali all I can think about now is macaroni and cheese.

YES!!!! I had macaroni and cheese three times last week, changed it up a little each time but it was amazing.

I had nothing to eat (that I wanted, anyway) so I made fried rice from some leftovers from early in the week. It was great! I'll have to do this much more often. Bonus: a couple cups of leftover rice made a giant skillet full of fried rice, so I get to eat this for a while. =D

lalala2004

I went full on classic saltines and ginger ale today. I want the nausea to be gone already!

roadspeckle

I’ve been throwing up my meals for three days but Taco Bell today was SO FREAKING AMAZING.

neeraja_k

Since my queasies have kind of let up this week, and I'm actually hungry again, Kraft Mac and Cheese. No shame.

I’ve had Jamba Juice three days in a row. For some reason every pregnancy I’ve craved cold beverages. With 1&2 I craved icees from
the gas station and so far this one wants Jamba Juice. Maybe that means I’m finally getting a girl. Wishful thinking. 

derbysquirrel

@calimom2524
Jamba Juice sounds good, but it'll have to get significantly warmer before I will want frozen beverages!

Yeah it's in the 50s and 60s here which isn't amazing frozen beverage weather but it's much better than anyone east of here haha

I just want queso and chips!

I am finally getting my appetite back which is lovely. I ate Chick-fil-A for breakfast and lunch. It was so yummy, both times. 

F47

I was about the heat up leftovers and the thought of it warm was churning my stomach. So...I had a microwaved leftover pork chop with cold Brussels sprouts and cold mashed potatoes. 

ladygali

@ashleyandjody I’ve been dying for some queso and chips. I need to get to our local yummy taco joint and get some. 

I’ve been eating sandwiches with mayo, lettuce, tomato, and cheese with pickles on the side. I think it’s the mayo/tomato combo that’s so delicious.

I just want veggie subs from subway all the time. I finally got one today.

serbusm

Sticking to mainly bland here. No veggies or chicken in last few weeks or anything with much flavor. PB sandwiches, crackers and cheese and bland flavored yogurt. Spinach fruit smoothies are one of the healthiest things I'm getting daily. This week just started craving plain hamburger so that's something. Tried broccoli yesterday thinking my nausea was going down and ended up wanting to vomit the rest of the day so gonna steer clear a little longer... 

aj1327

^^^ I still can’t do cooked veggies but raw ones suddenly sound good to me, which I guess is good. i hope you feel better soon!

edited because it ate my post.

^ I've been able to handle steamed veggies, but roasted or sauteed sound awful. Raw veggies all the way. Fruit has been pretty safe too.

jsnakehole

I'm still having trouble with vegetables, but I've been doing okay with oranges, raspberries, and strawberries. 

I'm on my way to get some matzo ball soup and sandwiches with DH. We're also picking up a hotdog for our dog, since it's his birthday and those are his favorite. 

ssthomps

I just had cucumber salad. So goood and refreshing. 

rocknrrollmom

If you love ice cream, try the Cookie Butter one from Trader Joes. It had me feeling some type of way last night!

lanieslumpia

I joined the Taco Bell Tribe for lunch today. And I polished it off with OJ. It was my reward for walking the dog for an hour. All the snow finally melted, and it’s a “heat wave” at 40 degrees!

I miss vegetables. I can kind of get by with bland steamed ones, like carrots or green beans, but even they aren't as good as they used to be. But any sort of cooked cruciferous vegetable, like cabbage/broccoli/sprouts/cauliflower can fark off...they smell vile. And they're my favorites.

Lots of potatoes are awesome though. Any which way you fix them. Although French fries are fantastic with all of ketchup. 

redheadbride15

I ate salad and a brownie for dinner last night and salad and Twix for lunch today. Nooooooo to any form of protein, unless ranch dressing counts.

I read your post this morning and then I had to have a veggie sub from Subway for lunch. It. Was. Delicious. I kind of want one for dinner.
