What are your food aversions?

PhoxySteph · June 2011

I was curious if anyone else has any food aversions they didn't have pre-pg?

kle0113 · June 2011

I don't have any yet, but with my daughter I had one. MH had made beef stew and I just could not eat it. Funny thing is my daughter had it at day care one day and got sick that night, which I found very odd. She is not one to throw up so I know it was from that.

Meat is still something I can't eat much of, especially smoked meat - gag! The thought and smell of any Asian inspired food is terrible as well. In the beginning, I couldn't stand to smell or eat sweets but this is slowly getting better. I think that is it....

cynasmin · June 2011

potato chips, avocado, the smell of cabbage never had a smell before now its REVOLTING!!

things I never liked before but like now: fruit punch, buttermilk ranch dressing all i want to eat these days is fruit!!

Mommy2Grayson · June 2011

It changes daily...sometimes hourly! I can eat something for one meal and the thought of having the same thing AGAIN as left-overs is terrible!

Meat, often. Chicken, very often. My DH makes these homemade mini pizzas. Even thinking about them right now makes me sick. Random things, here and there, make me so nauseated.

Tomatoes. BLEH! I had some cherry tomatoes in my salad the other day and for the first time this pregnancy, I came close to upchucking. Even the thought of tomatoes right now, makes me queasy. And I normally LOVE tomatoes.

What I'm really loving this time is fruit. Especially Kiwis! Except my doctor told me to limit my fruit to 1 a day because of the sugar. i,m trying to get through this pregnancy with and weight gain. Fat chance, but I'm willing to try.

I don't think I have any food aversions which is part of why I've already gained 10 pounds. lol!

jinnlinn · June 2011

I had some Texas Toast at work the other day and instantly regretted it. Even thinking about it now is making me gag!

Mistym05 · June 2011

Any meat, especially the smell when it is cooking.

littlemonster417 · June 2011

Before I got KU I was osbsessed with all things chicken. I ate chicken for literally EVERY meal! Now i even get a smell of it and I just want to die! the thought of eating it disgusts me!

Amomtomanyluvs · June 2011

Right now I cannot stand the thought of eating anything with ground beef. Hamburgers sound disgusting to me. And just a few weeks ago I was all about avocados, now it sounds revolting.

All that sounds good to me, is salads and fruit and candy. Ugh

missesBAD · June 2011

broccoli, asparagus and salad. gag me.

laramiek · June 2011

Eggs!! My fiance makes the best omelets and I miss them but wouldn't even consider trying them. The thought of them make me gag!!

Brit's Luna154 · June 2011

The tap water at my house. (It is reverse osmosis filtered, so not really just plain tap water even...fancy tap water.)

Eggs. Even if I know that they are in baked goods. Just eww.

jbcgirl113 · June 2011

Broccoli, yogurt, eggs, and deli meat...I make my DH a turkey sandwich for his lunch every day, and it just about gags me every time!

mandarod · June 2011

Just about everything.

I'm starving, but I can hardly stomach anything except pickles, which aren't exactly the most healthy meal out there... I usually love fruit, but it is particularly disgusting right now.

bigbear · June 2011

Red meat. Just the thought of it makes me gag and I usually love red meat. Same goes with salmon, just can't do it....

Redsoxchick · June 2011

So far, Sunchips. I used to LOVE them. My husband brought me a bag home with a sub and I gagged just looking at the bag. Very weird

THIS! I am about to put some stuff in the freezer that I had been wanting for two weeks. I had my one good meal, choked down part of a second, and now I can't stand the thought of it!

I also don't seem to be alone in my practically vegetarian diet these days. I can only have meat if it's in certain forms or "hidden". Ground meat is the worst! I couldn't even stand the sight or smell of sweets like pies or cakes in the beginning, but now that's pretty much passed over. I had 1-2 yogurts a day for several weeks. I tried to finish one the other day and couldn't. Now I have a fridge full of yogurt that I can't eat :-

The hardest thing is when I'm starving and trying to figure out something to eat that won't gag me!

Ashley&Scott · June 2011

My biggest ones have been raw meat & eggs.

Oatoa · June 2011

niccimax:
I have zero interest in meat right now. And I luuuuurve my meat.

This exactly. I even still like the smell of cooking meat. Its just the thought of actually eating it that is making me sick.

^^THIS! I am incapable of planning meals, since I never know from moment to moment what is going to gross me out. The only things that I've had no problem with at all are pizza and cereal.

For the past two weeks I've been completely grossed out by the thought of shrimp, which is normally one of my favorite foods.

lyonsworth · June 2011

It was pretty much everything. This past week I'm happy to have most of my appetite back with only a few lingering aversions. Exnay on tomatoes and Italian food. Which means no pizza, no lasagna, and definitely no feta!

Just peaches and yogurt please.

live4thegiraffe · June 2011

Mine has been chicken and hamburgers. Which is kinda sucky, since it's officially cookout season Sad

lucky81089 · June 2011

I can't eat anything greasy or junky anymore. It's very inconvenient, but I guess it's the healthiest food aversion I could possibly ask for! I'm down about 10lbs from my pre-preg weight, but my dr isn't concerned. I guess it's expected to drop a few pounds when you go from fast food junky to health nut!

SerenaNBean · June 2011

i am the same as you on the cravings part. i'm not usually into ranch dressing but it's the best ever now, and fruit it's really the only thing i can eat sometimes! i think that is so wierd and random that preggos like the same food.

SerenaNBean · June 2011

cant stand meat in any form, like most of you. I can't think of anything grease or anything like junk food. No sweets and nothing dry like bread. This makes it very hard to eat anything at all. i'm hungry most of the time. i'm currently survivng on fruit, salad, cereal, and pickles. I thought it would be better by this point but still waiting....

LutzWifey · June 2011

ummmm everything but fruit?

PhoxySteph · June 2011

I know this is going to sound weird... but my aversion has been the smell of a/c, freezer smells and things like that.

I can't stand even the thought of eating frozen stuff... ice cream, slushies, (I used to LOVE frozen lemonade!) ice etc.

When I buy groceries I have to get my DD or DH to get all the frozen stuff because I can't stomach the frozen smell and idea of frozen stuff!

Embarrassed

Jess084 · June 2011

This. Except all I can eat are bagels and pizza. I feel awful.

Sascha3 · June 2011

Broccoli, and most vegetables. Eggs. Greek yogurt. All things I used to live on before.

It is horrible because I used to eat pretty healthy and now all I want is grilled cheese, pizza, hamburgers and cereal.
