I know I just started this thread on 8/22, but I wanted to restart it to follow along with the new daily breakdown of threads, so...

What are you eating?

I am CRAVING apple cider donuts... can't find any anywhere and I want to cry if I don't get one soon

KirstinH88 · August 2016

Yesterday I ate hot cheetos for mid morning snack and then I ate a cup of noodle for lunch (I know, so unhealthy). Let's just say I wanted to vom all afternoon. Never again.

@wenninger2016

Now I want donuts!

I'm doing better with eating. Nothing sounds good (except those donuts!) but once I force myself to eat something it's better. Had an egg and yogurt for breakfast. Orange juice is wonderful! Had some grapes for a snack and crackers and creamy swiss cheese. I just tried some water but NOPE. Can't do!

emox3232 · August 2016

I can't seem to get enough chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream or ginger ale

KirstinH88 · August 2016

@emox3232 Chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream is my favorite!!! YUM!!! Now, I need some...

emox3232 · August 2016

@kirstinH88 I could go for some right now too! All this talk of donuts and ice cream is making me hungry!!

mylittleirvz · August 2016

Today has been another "nothing sounds good" day. So I am eating saltine crackers and attempting to drink 7up at my desk...I am going to hate both of these things by the time this is all said and done.

Breider17 · August 2016

An egg sandwich with lettuce, tomato and spicy mustard. And cherry yogurt and a v8 juice

I went to a meeting yesterday and they had some there. Ermahgad.

Beckyf321 · August 2016

I just had a cup o' Ramen for dinner and it was delicious. I will probably add a grilled cheese sandwich in a bit.

kriskris88 · August 2016

The chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream is my favorite but for my last pregnancy doctor told me to avoid since cookie dough batter contains raw egg so just be careful !

Ekzerr · August 2016

Everything sweet! Especially salt water taffy...found a store with about one hundred flavours and it's so soft and amazing. The cherry cola and caramel apple are my favourite so far

rachelgreene-2 · August 2016

The broccoli craving is still going strong. I told my FI that at this rate we're gonna have a head of broccoli.

No other cravings or aversions.

gardenmama17 · August 2016

...definitely not eating ruffles in bed right now...

SJG812 · August 2016

Carbs!!!! Pizza, Bagels, pasta, cereal. All the foods that I usually work hard to avoid!

emox3232 · August 2016

Most chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream is dough made without the raw eggs. I actually have a recipe for eggless cookie dough as well and it is pretty good!

I am counting down the days until we go apple picking and can pick some of those bad boys up! Around here, they only taste good from the farm. Everything at the store is blah. Bonus for me is that our class field trip is to a pumpkin farm so I know I'll get to go at least twice!

STM2017 · August 2016

Literally can't read this thread without gagging. Here's what I'm eating - garbage food that's making me gain way more weight than I should in first trimester! I seriously don't know how women go through pregnancy and only gain the 25-35 recommended pounds. I always start with this goal. And I don't think it's gonna happen this time around either

Breesy14 · August 2016

I'm two amazing cravings and not able to indulge in either because of laziness or hard to track down:

Fried banana with cinnamon ice cream
and
bread and butter pickles on club crackers

cliche, I know...

nwshay · August 2016

O. M. G. My husband brought home trader joes sea salt petite brownie bites. Best. Thing. Ever.

Cheeseburgers. All the cheeseburgers. It's all I want.

BKinney0506 · August 2016

Today, I really wanted a slushy. Which I normally don't go for at all! Like, a Sonic Slushy just sounds so good!!

Shan J · August 2016

All I want are burgers, bagels, toast, and zebra cakes. I'm having a horrible time eating healthy and drinking water. Lemonade and Gatorade save me. I'm so nauseous ALL DAY!!

kwrightnb · August 2016

I second that this thread makes me gag !! The only thing that sounds appetizing the last couple days is pizza and cheese burgers. Then I remember I'm lactose intolerant? And my entire day is ruined

looks like I'll be sticking with strawberries and burnt toast today .. Hopefully that stays down.

Omie_Wise · August 2016

My husband and I joke that I am becoming the child within because I'm subsisting primarily on preschool foods: plain toast cut up into small pieces, apple slices, half turkey sandwiches with cheese and mayo, hot dog with no bun and ketchup, tater tots, and all the ginger ale. He's really struggling to cook for me because plain is not our usual MO.

@Omie_Wise that's all my husband eats. He's a major pain in the butt. He takes an uncrustable and juice box to work every day for a snack. It's a struggle to come with up with dinners because he doesn't like anything!!

Delanie · August 2016

Lemons lemons and more lemons! And lots of Tapatio!

nwshay · August 2016

Yes on the tapatio @delanie and siriacha! Give me all of the hot sauce!

mallyandryan · August 2016

Pizza bagel bites is the only thing I have been able to eat more than a bite of. I think I want something and the second I eat it, I feel sick.

ebloom3 · August 2016

I'm thirsty all the time, but nothing sounds good. Water was working, but not anymore. In terms of food, I have to eat protein in the morning or I feel really sick all day. I had to completely give up coffee because it also makes me feel sick. Giving up coffee was the struggle because I typically love coffee!

bww_0331 · August 2016

Still hooked on carbs. Pizza, pasta, cereal, toast. Too afraid to look at the damage from the last few weeks on the scale

Also, I've found that water no longer helps when I feel thirsty. Occasionally ice water will help but I've switched to milk, slushies, popsicles, etc. at night to help.

Knottie34471835 · August 2016

I'm so nauseous most of the time that my diet right now consists of bread, bagels, potatoes and fruit. Thank God for my prenatals- at least im getting some vitamins into my system. As for cravings I have none! Just the mention of meat or dairy makes my stomach turn. Looking forward to eating better in the next trimester!

DaisyCW · August 2016

Everything! Like right now I'm craving crunchy supreme tacos from Taco Bell but I just ate 1 pint of Ben & Jerrys chocolate and vanilla ice cream.

LyssaChap · August 2016

Basically nothing.... today... peanut butter crackers and ginger beer... thats about all I can handle... this is getting old.

lovelongdog06 · August 2016

I've been being almost stupidly cautious because my son was born with malrotated intestines and I'm scared of defects now....but today I bought a sandwich at the grocery store and devoured it in the parking lot, listeria risk be damned. It was turkey and swiss on a wonderful soft croissant. Delicious.

Ekzerr · August 2016

The past few days I've been all about overnight oats for breakfast...so satisfying

MrsBakes · August 2016

Every time I think something sounds good and get it, the minute it's in front of me, I'm grossed out. I tried water yesterday and it almost ended very badly for me. so I drink peppermint tea, Gatorade, vitamin water and I just bought some apple juice and will try watering that down to hopefully add some water to my diet. AS far as food, pretzels and popcorn is the only thing that doesn't make me feel sick after I eat it. But I still force myself to eat other foods. I'm slowly experiencing some cravings, BUT as mentioned as soon as I try eating it it's awful. *sigh

Same.... as soon as its in front of me and I can smell it... Not interested at all... Especially if it smells even mildly sweet.

MrsBakes · August 2016

@knottie34471835 and @LyssaChap and all others with nasuea

Do you ever feel like you don't believe or see how it will ever get better?

Seriously I feel so crappy and think to myself, how is this every supposed to improve. I just don't see it happening. Obviously it will, but this is totally kicking my ass and bringing me down.

LyssaChap · August 2016

I, presently, have accepted constant nausea and lack of appetite as my new normal.... I do not remember what it was like to not feel this way, at this juncture....@mrsbakes
