    drink: sparkling water (there goes my teeth enamel)
    food: tater tots with ketchup

    I used to be pretty diligently Primal @hikerlady.  I've managed to remain gluten-free, dairy-free, mostly organic, and have minimal refined sugar.  But I can't remember the last time I was able to eat fish and only recently started to add back salads and stews.  I still have days where all I can eat are carbs.  It got better for me around week 15.  @mattandlora also used to be Paleo.  She's had severe nausea requiring medication.  She's had to eat carbs and dairy too.

  • Tomato juice for me too!  Also, I've always loved fruit but it has special appeal now.  Pickles sound pretty good too, predictably enough.

    Other than those, I've had strong but random cravings (one day I MUST have chicken soup, the next I can't stand it, etc.)

    I am aching for some orange juice right now but I have to refrain from any and all fruit juices so my sugars stay normal. But mercy I want it.

  • Chocolate and baked goods. Ughhh. I hate it. I feel like I'm blowing up like a whale... Last time the mere thought of eating sweets made me sick to my stomach till the very end.
  • @hikerlady - yep, "Tired pile of crap" describes it well. I'm looking forward to going back on paleo, but I'm just not ready. I still need 3 meds to prevent the barfing. It went away at 18 weeks last time and I really hope it stops earlier this time. But I'm not holding my breath.

  • Hot Chocolate!
     I'm limiting myself to one every few nights now  - my weight was going up fast.
    Food wise, I'm not really craving anything, but for some reason have totally  gone off olives - which I usually love!

  • Definitely ice cream.

  • When I'm not pregnant, my only true vice is movie popcorn. Sometimes I'll go see a crappy movie just to get the popcorn. The large one. And the places which make you put your own butter on it? Yeah, I put a straw in that popcorn container and use it to add butter down at the bottom and middle too, not just the top. Then I eat until it is gone. And it makes me feel sick and I don't care.

    Note: This happens maybe 1-2x per year, max. If it happened as much as I wanted, I'd look like Jabba the Hut.

  • Oops. Just saw the question was what you couldn't resist during pregnancy. I haven't really had something like that. Nothing sounds good. That will change, but that's where we are right now. Last time I was pregnant, it was cheese. My recipe board on Pinterest looked insane for a few months.

    OMG how did I manage 40 years on planet Earth and never even thought about using a straw to get the butter down to bottom!! @mattandlora I think I love you!!
