Whole grain Goldfish, because 1) they're whole grain and 2) I ran out of pretzels

I also had a Boston Cream donut from Dunkin' Donuts this morning because my boss was irritating me. I know, not the healthiest of choices, but hey, the Goldfish are whole grain!

doodleoodle · May 2016

I think I'm going to make cheesy mashed potatoes and baked asparagus. I know I should probably have some protein, but none sounds good... Guess I'll have a glass of milk? Lol

jenlynne0624 · May 2016

Sweet potato fries that I have resisted purchasing so far today, this sea salt chocolate that my friend sent me for mother's day, and that's about it. Nothing really sounds good again.

cjt121413 · May 2016

I've been munching on Goldfish (which are not whole grain lol) to try to keep the nausea at bay. I can't decide on anything that sounds decent for lunch.

JustBored10 · May 2016

I have my appetite back but I have been craving Fourth of July crackers (an organic version of Ritz crackers) slathered with cream cheese

My go to binge snack lately!

LinziLoo09 · May 2016

I'm totally on the goldfish train to help with the nausea. Also, Publix fried chicken with honey mustard...amazing. I want it all. And watermelon. Mmmm

Mamax2 · May 2016

All of the trail mix! I found that it helps keep nausea at bay, and helps me feel fuller longer. Also, I just devoured 1/2 of a cubano sandwich and bowl of french onion soup from Atlanta Bread Company.

Christinaruth74 · May 2016

Nothing really sounds good right now... Wah. But I've been waking up about an hour before I actually get out of bed and eating a Belvita breakfast bar. I would like to report that I *think* it's helped curb some of my major nausea/gagging issues in the morning!

Christinaruth74 · May 2016

Oh, and I'll be the oddball and say that goldfish sound disgusting to me right now. My DD was stuffing her face with them yesterday and it was all I could do not to gag every time she breathed on me

brittnic86 · May 2016

Fruit. Lots of fruit. I was super excited for the free strawberries my MIL gave me last night!

jenlynne0624 · May 2016

@Christinaruth74 Every time I get goldfish for DS I want to gag. I could gag now thinking about it. DH kissed me after eating a few and I pushed him away and dry heaved. Pregnancy is glamorous.

@LinziLoo09 I would destroy a bucket of Publix fried chicken, but I love 294869346 miles from Publix now and I am sad.

mom2fallbabies · May 2016

So far I've had cravings for: pizzeria pretzel combos, french onion dip, steak, gushers & fruit roll-ups, granola bars, cereal, raspberry sorbet, and chocolate shortbread cookies. The really sad part is that as soon as I actually get what I'm craving, said craving goes away and the food I wanted so much before now makes me want to barf. And none of them are things I normally eat so now they're just languishing in my pantry/fridge/freezer. Yay.

slartybartfast · May 2016

For some reason, Tokyo Joes chicken spring rolls have been a fairly safe meal option for me. Last pregnancy too. I have this idea that a piece of margarita pizza wouldn't be bad but then I get scared that I'll get it and barf.

I managed eggs and toast for lunch.

And still on the lucky charms

phoenix870509 · May 2016

DH got CHEETOS PUFFS!!!!! Oh yeah! The dog is sitting here, either begging or judging me. Probably a little of both. DH is going to be very upset, I've already gone through half the bag. Oops...

jennbaylor12 · May 2016

Nothing. Sounds. Good. NOTHING. Ugh. DH made steak last night for Mother's day and even that didn't taste right

unicornsthecat · May 2016

@phoenix870509 Yum Cheetos puffs! How did I forget about how good those are?! I've been craving chips so bad lately. Today it's salt and vinegar chips. A couple days ago, it was ranch Doritos....

I'm not big on chips, but put some chips and onion dip in front of me and I can eat the whole thing! Those, or sour cream and onion chips. Haven't tested these since I got pregnant. Maybe I can convince DH he needs potato chips in his life...

ETA: Got the Lay's Wavy chips and onion dip. Didn't take too much convincing

Does that make me evil???

leksiL · May 2016

I'm on the goldfish train but not the whole grain...xtreme cheddar baby!!
Also, my BFF sent me a care package with some yummy pretzels from SD and I've eaten half a pound of those today. I am going to go hide them now

I ate an entire bag of cheetos puffs last week but now they sound disgusting to me, which is good because DH was legit mad at me for not sharing.

dckateh · May 2016

Ugh you guys, I did so badly today. 2 bean/cheese burritos for breakfast and mac and cheese for lunch/dinner. I feel even grosser and more bloated than usual

. Tomorrow it will be back to being good for baby. Yogurt, avocados, smoothies, nuts, fruit, I swear.

LCartee2016 · May 2016

I made my own Rib-Eye for the first time today. I ate what I could and gave the rest to my big boy (German/Ausssie mix). I think I might be developing food aversions to different forms of chicken, which is weird because chicken is usually my go-to food. My dad used to tell me I was going to sprout feathers. My mom and DH think this new development is hysterical.

LinziLoo09 · May 2016

Awe @jenlynne0624 ! I would send you Publix fried chicken if it would keep. It seriously is the best.

Unfortunately things that make me gag are outnumbering things that I can eat.
Gag: yogurt <heartbroken>, cookies <seriously?!>, protein bars, grilled chicken from the other day, peanut butter granola bars, eggs, and more
Tolerate: fried chicken, baked potatoes, watermelon, goldfish

sourlemon · May 2016

I'm going to Applebee's for dinner and will be getting a burger with bbq sauce and extra pickles. I haven't wanted meat in 9 weeks but it's a craving today.

missmossy11 · May 2016

I'll be 7 weeks tomorrow. The only thing that sounds good to me right now is white rice, ginger ale, and I have a hankering for some lemon Italian ice. DH is picking that up at Publix for me now

I miss wanting food!!!

KateH1216 · May 2016

I'll be 10 weeks tomorrow and every day my snack is veggies and dill dip. The veggies are fine, but they're really just a vehicle for as much dill dip as is possible at one time

jenlynne0624 · May 2016

@LinziLoo09 I appreciate it though!! If you were in Florida I'd take you up on that when we hopefully visit our friends in the next year or so.

jennbaylor12 · May 2016

@KateH1216 - what is this dill dip you speak of?

beff12 · May 2016

Today I have had mini wheats, cheese, sloppy joes, baked beans, macaroni salad, cheese, pretzels, cheese, eggs, cheese, pasta, cookies. That is pretty much my daily menu, minus the sloppy joes and beans because that was at my parents house.

Did I mention cheese?

dmontgo · May 2016

@beff12 I love your siggy. I'm normally on mobile so I don't see it. But Christmas Vacation is my favorite Christmas movie. We have the moose mugs, and DH dresses like Cousin Eddie at our holiday party haha.

I have to give a shout out to Starbucks today. We showed up for a VA appointment a little too early, so we headed to Starbies for a coffee. I got a tall with caramel and cream...and I could not bring myself to drink it. So, I took it back to the counter and asked them (politely) to remake it. Deep down I knew it was my crazy preggo tastebuds, but I wasn't ready to admit defeat. So they completely remade it...and I still couldn't drink it. Sad day.

But, I have a beautiful loaf of cinnamon raisin bread in the kitchen, waiting for me to put my mouth on it.

beff12 · May 2016

@dmontgo haha thank you! I loooove everything Christmas and figured being in D16 gave me a free pass for a Christmas Vacation signature

You did so much better than I did! It has been storming like crazy today so naturally I didn't want to leave the house, so naturally all I had today was a whole box of Girl Scout Samoas... by myself... until FI got home and we went to get Chick-fil-a. Tomorrow shouldn't be nearly as bad, I hope, so tomorrow will be grocery day!

dmontgo · May 2016

@ashleaf2018 A whole box of Samoas? Girl, I ain't even mad.

ashleaf2018 · May 2016

@dmontgo Yaaas girl they were too good. That was the last box so I needed to get it out of the apartment ASAP so now I can finally exhibit some self-control.

KateH1216 · May 2016

@jennbaylor12 ha! Dill dip is only the best ever veggie dip!! I'm not a lover of ranch dressing or dips, but the dill dip from the veggie section in the grocery store has been a daily snack for the last few weeks.

1MommyRunner · May 2016

Nothing but soup sounds good to me today.

phoenix870509 · May 2016

I swear this kid is going to be so weird. Can't keep down any food today. Not cereal, not saltines, not fruit. Nothing! Able to hold down water and flat coke, so I'm hydrated. Had to take hubs to word and their cafe has AMAZING mac and cheese, so I ask him to get me some to test a theory. Touch and go for a few minutes there, but yup, I'm able to keep down the mac and cheese. WTH?

Yea I know how you feel. I couldn't handle anything the other day and had DH make me a box of mac and cheese. As he brought it up I was panicked that it would be yellow and the sight would make me barf. Thank goodness it was white!!! It went down fine

JustBored10 · May 2016

So yesterday after work I came home and decided to make my favorite banana bread (super easy and quick) with my DS. We ended up eating half the loaf before dinner! Link below because it is AMAZING!!!!! I have been waiting weeks to make this because every time we go to the grocery store the bananas are always green and I need them to be really ripe for this recipe. So last night I finally had three ripe bananas laying around

SchruteBucks · May 2016

I'm currently eating a pretzel roll by dipping it in hummus.

Kristonita12 · May 2016

I had leftover veggie sushi for breakfast and then Panera for lunch. I had the mediterranean veggie sandwich with tomato soup... but I am so annoyed because I got it to go and when I got home, I realized they swapped the cilantro hummus for some random flavored mayo for some reason! I HATE mayonnaise. Ugh. Lasagna for dinner and I'm praying the meat doesn't skeev me out too badly.

beff12 · May 2016

I had a hamburger and fries from Cookout for lunch. I got chicken nuggets for DD and she didn't eat them and threw them at the dog...I was so sad. I totally would have eaten them. I really want another hamburger for dinner. I basically became a 24/7 carnivore with DD's pregnancy so I'm not surprised that this one is headed the same direction.
