Can't stop eating!

in April 2015 Moms
Is anyone else really hungry all the time or needing to eat constantly to keep the nausea at bay? I thought by this point, I'd feel more like *myself*. I keep eating bagels and carbs, and mayo and pb, I am cravings carbs and fat! I worked out 5x a week when I was pregnant with my son and this time around I keep eating and craving junk and sitting on the sofa. I know i need to eat more veggies, but I'm having a really hard time making a change. Please tell me I'm not the only one!

    Oh for goodness sake, obviously I know I'm pregnant and am always going to be hungry. My point was I'm feeling guilty about eating crap and only crap when I know the 1st tri is over and it's time to stop eating for 3...

    I wake up starving and can go from zero to hungry in seconds. I'm not eating as much though, and the foods I'm eating are not different to pre-preg but I'm not working out.

    OP - If your really worried about your appetite and think your cravings are out of the norm, ask your OB to recommend a registered dietitian.  Maybe you need a pro to set a menu out for you.

    I've craved junk food my entire life, so, I can't exactly relate - but if its weird for you and bothering you, ask your doctor.

    @stephaniejfree‌, don't let anyone (yourself included) guilt you about what you are eating! You are a grown woman and can make your own decisions. If your health becomes an issue, your doctor will let you know.

    Idea for your bagel conundrum... I am obsessed with the sour cream/ hidden valley ranch dip mix. take a bagel, put that on there, then add veggies like shredded carrots/broccoli/etc... still gives you your carb craving fix but also incorporates the good nutrition.

    Why is food guilt a bad thing? I mean, obviously, if it drives you to an eating disorder that would be incredibly unhealthy. But guilt is one of those emotions that helps push us toward the right choice isn't it? I for one feel incredibly guilty that I just devoured an entire bag of chocolate covered pretzels in one sitting... And the guilt I feel is totally legitimate, justified, and healthy if I let it motivate me toward not making that choice again. Which it has. I shall not be buying myself one of those packages again! :)
