How healthy/not so healthy did you eat when pg?

I eat healthy for meals and snacks throughout the day.  But with my previous pg, I could not stay away from ice cream.  I could have a bowl of ice cream every night.  Is this terrible?  I never gained a lot of weight, the normal amount. 

Did you crave and eat anything that really wasn't the best for you?  I know moderation is key.  So how do you limit yourself when pg and you want something?

    I had my 10 week appt today and actually lost 4 pounds. I was surprised because I am addicted to grilled cheese and tomato sandwiches.

    I don't eat healthy ever.  Pregnant or not.  I pretty much eat whatever I want.

    Well I lived on crackers and pop for the first 24 weeks. Throw in a little ramen noodles and fruit for good measure. Then when the ms let up a little I lived off blizzards. Literally I had one everyday on the way home from work. But that didn't last bc at 28 weeks I got GD and had to eat healthy (thankfully I could stomach most food at this point).

    I was so sick that I ate anything I could get down or keep down :)

    Healthy is best, but I think it's fine to have your indulgence, too!

    I definitely eat better when I'm not pregnant, but I'm not eating like crazy every day.

    I definitely give into my ice cream cravings every once in a while and I really crave pasta and bread so I eat more of that than normal (especially after teaching my fitness classes).

    I had very normal weight gain last time and this one seems to be going the same way.

    I was so sick and lost weight that I ate what sounded good and it wasn't healthy at all.

    I had a donut for breakfast and mcdonalds for lunch. I am ok with the donut but for some reason I am embarrassed about the mcd. I don't eat like this all the time, we are having fish for dinner to balance it out.
