Holy Sweet Tooth Batman!

lucypod · December 2015

Anyone else suddenly craving sweets more than ever before? Trying to curb it this time of year is next to impossible, with all of the holiday candies, cookies, and oh that froyo place around the corner doesn't really help either. It's not like I lost my salty foods craving either, now I just want both!

thebigoaktree · December 2015

Yes, I've been trying to be good and only buy this stuff once a week but it's been bad.

I craved sweets with my daughter! I could have eaten candy, ice cream and donuts everyday all day. And I did. I was pretty big by the end of that pregnancy haha

MillieT09 · December 2015

Hahaha YES!!! Wendy's Frostys are calling my name 24/7 It just started this week - I want salty/sweet junk All. The. Time.
Potato chips of every flavor, ice cream, soda, twizzlers, chocolate, honey roasted peanuts, cheese on everything, chocolate on everything, sprinkles on everything, whipped cream on everything. Hahahaha it's crazy!
I've been very very good but my go to at 11 pm when I'm starving and nauseous is a strawberry milkshake - I've kept the freezer stocked with vanilla ice cream and frozen strawberries.
No one but my husband knows I'm pregnant but I'm feeling like family is getting suspicious due to my appetite of late.

elenabrent · December 2015

YES! I'm normally not a sweets person at all, but it's all I want. That and fruits. I think it's because my mouth tastes a little bit sweet and a little bit bitter, so it's the only food that really tastes good with my mouth right now. Last night I was craving cake, which is way out of the ordinary for me (I would always choose queso over dessert).

ladythrice · December 2015

I craved sweets while pregnant with my son and its never gone away!!!

elizcg · December 2015

Yes!! I bought a huge chocolate chip cookie for "dessert" after my lunch on Sunday which is so out of the ordinary for me. Sour candies, chewy candies, ice cream, cookies -- its all so tasty. And sometimes, its the only thing that sounds even remotely appetizing which I know isn't good because there is pretty much no nutritional value in candies & cookies.

maddmama · December 2015

Haha good luck to us all! I'm having a hard time resisting the sweets too. I get to go home for Xmas this year (finally) and I know I won't be able to hide from my mom and grandma's cookies! I was actually just thinking about doughnuts before I clicked on this post. I'm planning on packing doughnuts for the ride up home actually. Mmm there's a Krispy Kreme down the road. It's weird .. I feel so full and keeping puking up my mouth, but I'm also hungry. Ew.

Hilarious! I was feeling so bad about all the sugar I've been consuming! I had a sweet tooth before this baby and now it's like x100. My go-to late at night (or any time of day, let's be honest) is ice cream sandwiches.

noelietrex · December 2015

I decided sugar is fine as long as it's fruit. 5 bananas and a handful of dates smoothie? Yeah probably still healthy! LOL oh and those little clementines! I eat at least 4-5 per day. They help curb the candy bowl calling to me.

Y0urm0m · December 2015

Oh my god I need ice cream sandwiches in my mouth right now.

I've also been craving a dense chocolate cake. I'm dying and apparently I can only keep down sweets this week.

melodramatic26 · December 2015

yes! and not even chocolate (which is normally my sweet treat), but I can't get enough of fruit snacks or twizzlers.

m8881 · December 2015

Yes. I normally don't go for sweets except when pmsing but now I've had serious cravings for dried fruit and tart cherries, berries of all kinds, and ice cream. I am currently loving cranberry scones from whole foods, raspberry danish, and I have Black Forest cake flavored ice cream in my freezer....

Heathereaddy · December 2015

Yes! I was so proud of myself for opting to get an apple as my side at Panera but the cashier asked if I wanted to add a pastry for half price. Of course I added a chocolate chip cookie and I'm currently eating it while that apple sits sadly on the counter. Damn cashier! It's all her fault! Lol

Definitely the strangest combination of feelings. Pretty much before every meal I say "Let me throw up real quick and then I'll be ready to eat." Barfing and feeling awful and still wanting to eat is gross.

PinkLady2015 · December 2015

this was seriously the worst idea ever opening this thread....::::::::scavenges for candy at office::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

megstervt · December 2015

I had a wicked sweet tooth before getting KU. I haven't wanted sweets at all since finding out. I got a chocolate chip cookie today and was like "meh". WTF?! I hope this goes away because I cannot survive on spicy Mexican food forever.

elldel · December 2015

Yup. Sweets and carbs. Bring on the donuts, cakes, pies, cookies, and muffins. Oh, and not to mention froyo!

iamautumn · December 2015

I seriously drove my pukey, roots grown out, unshowered self to the grocery store, bought half a dozen donuts (the big ones in the case) and a box of powdered donut holes. Half was gone before noon. I had 3 different types of dessert last night. I ate 4 cookies while reading this. This thread made me feel less alone.

AudioLoveStory · December 2015

I'm the opposite. I normally have a huge sweet tooth and now sweets just don't taste right.

LaurenAsh23 · December 2015

Yea...I want all the sweets! Now I always have a sweet tooth, but it's on overdrive now. I also don't let myself eat that stuff normally anyways so that probably makes it worse now. At the beginning of my pregnancy sweets made me sick...so luckily they don't now and I can indulge

elenabrent · December 2015

My midwife scolded me today for eating so much citrus and fruit because she said it will cause gestational diabetes. I mean...

stillcozy · December 2015

I used to love sweets and now they sound awful to me which is sad because I love chocolate! I'm craving salty now! Funny how craving and aversions work

I feel like that is a lie. I've heard there is no telling who will get it and I doubt eating fruit will give you it. My thoughts eat what you can keep down and if you craving fruit go for it there are far worse things to stuff your face with! Also I now want some cutie oranges !

candypantsls · December 2015

My nurse practitioner told me of a woman who couldn't get enough of oranges during her pregnancy. She ate an entire. bag. of. oranges. every day and gained 60 lbs.

I crack up thinking of this poor woman just sitting on her couch...peeling another orange...

I just had a clementine... followed by a big piece of candy!

benten24 · December 2015

This week I'm craving sweets for the first time. For dinner tonight I'm making doughnuts. Glazed doughnuts, and chocolate frosted ones. Because I want to, and because I can.

Judge away.

soberkfell · December 2015

I work at a bank and approaching the kitchen on our floor at all this time of year is just asking for temptation. All our partners and customers are sending in big platters of sweet treats. I was feeling good about myself eating well this week... then I had 3 bagels and four of these delightful little cheesecake-y pastries. I'll be eating a salad for dinner methinks.
