This has been the worst this week. I haven't really been hungry but at the same time I HAVE to eat, and have to eat NOW. I hate it. When I pick the wrong thing it doesn't sit well and I'm in even worse shape then I was before. Toast/jelly seems to works most of the time but I can't live off of that! So what does the trick for you?

Re: what do you eat when your not hungry (but starving at the same time)
Any type of crackers or toast.
Pretzels
Apple with peanut butter (recommended by my midwife)
Chinese sweet & sour chicken with or without sauce (a frequent craving.) Chicken in general... it's the only meat I can eat pretty reliably these days.
Rice (brown, white, yellow...)
Bagel & cream cheese
Yogurt or Greek yogurt
Dry cereal
Sour candy
Cashews
Pierogies
Most fruits
Toast & jelly works for me too
I'm not claiming these are all the most healthful choices, just what has been working for me. They have been helping me keep the m/s under control somewhat.
toast with butter if its real bad, like I can't move and I call out to dH I need to eat right now or I will throw up.
But I also have found that an owens biscuit w/ sausage sits really well. I know they are probably awful for you, but its what is working right now. They are in the freezer/breakfast isle. 49 seconds in our microwave and I'm good to go.

I don't believe that God ever tells us "no". he has three options. Yes, not right now, or I have something better in mind. We just have to wait & see.

I am hungry right now but nauseous and nothing sounds good
Before long my stomach starts growling (every couple hours) and then I just try to eat something.
