Food Swings?

Anyone experiencing this? Like mood swings but with food? I'll also post in my birth month thing, but yesterday morning I hated hotdogs, that evening I needed them wrapped in crescent rolls. All week, I've not been able to even say the word cheese and needed my macaroni plain. For lunch today I could hardly stir the macaroni without gagging, I needed to put cheese on it just to make it sound appealing! the other day I needed tortillas fried, then the next day I couldn't even think about opening the cupboard to get them out.

Anyone having food swings?

Yes!  And I have to convince myself that I want whatever my poor hubby is cooking for dinner!  I literally self-talk..."I want a cheeseburger.  I want a cheeseburger.  I want a cheeseburger."  Otherwise I can't even think about eating!

I'm with you, at the moment food is gross.  I don't like anything now, and I love to eat and I love food.  The one thing that doesn't bother me is an Asian Chicken salad.  It's weird because when I was pregnant with my son 10 years ago I couldn't stand chicken.  I guess every pregnancy is different.  One thing that has me baffled...I was in love with McDonlads fench fries...don't even mention them because it just makes me sick to my stomach.  So crazy.  Keep searching for healthy food that you do like and you should be fine.  They say this will pass soon!

I have them, but only in one way -- from liking a food to hating it. There are a few things that I ate earlier in my pregnancy that literally make me gag to think about now. Like feta cheese on pasta with sundried tomatoes... ugh I just almost got sick even typing that.

It happened to me with mac and cheese, too... I was obsessed for awhile, and then one day I was totally disgusted. And one night I made veggie lasagna. I ate it for lunch one day and it was SO good... I ate it for lunch the next day and almost threw up outside our school's media center while doing lunch duty.

Pregnancy = good times!

I have more like an appetite swing, I either can't eat anything or drink anything or starving.  I was 700 calories over my budget by the end of the night yesterday.
