Aka the thread that is responsible for 3/4 of our weight gain...
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*

Greek yogurt popsicles and peanut butter toast. Also I feel like I need to eat every hour or two and I keep waking up starving in the mornings. LO must be having a growth spurt
Two days ago we went out for lunch and I had a beef and vege filled pastery, coleslaw and a buttered scone. This was 1/2 an hour after eating two muffins, and I had already had two pieces of peanut butter toast for breakfast. Below is my reaction when DH looked at me with a mixture of horror and awe after realising how much I ate. I usually have a TINY appetite.
@Perfectypo me too! Usually not a big eater but now I can be minorly impressive. DH knows better than to say anything but his friend comments whenever we go out. Love the GIF!
I had some chili pasta and loaded chili steak fries last night... and on top of that some chocolate chip cookies...feels like I can still feel the bloating from all of that mess today
All the food today because I went to a bbq. Pulled pork sandwiches and then all the salads. Plus desserts (Apple pie with caramel!) That's what apparently happens when you dont let this pregnant lady eat until 2:00 in the afternoon.
@bcashaw I craved spicy food for my first tri. We went out to eat and I literally ate a plate of jalapenos, seeds and all. I've never heard spicy food is a no! Also YH should know if a pregnant woman needs to eat something, do not stand in her way

I've got a beef stew in my slowcooker... the broth is a mix of red wine and beef stock, and it's cooking off with potatoes, carrots, garlic and onion. The smell is heavenly and making me SO hungry! Hopefully it tastes as good as it smells.
Friday I cried because I didn't have Angel hair to make. Yesterday we got some and I made some for work today. I'm guilty of sitting by the oven picking at the pasta with my fingers. It was heavenly.

I hate you all. Im starving now. @jess0211 i think theres a wives tale about spicy food inducing labor, so they say not to eat it when youre like 9 months pregnant unless you want to have your baby .
@jess0211 +1 to eating spicy food while pregnant. Had some buffalo blasts at Cheesecake Factory and they were AMAZING. Going for Indian food next Sunday
Carrot cake muffins with whipped cream cheese icing. Yum!

Went to a picnic with DH's extended family. About 40 people and the only dessert was a SIX pack of crappy storebought cookies. They are so weird and annoying sometimes.
This week has been all about carbs and strawberries. I finally got to check out a dedicated gluten free bakery a few towns over from me, and went to town there. Muffins for me for days! Plus it is finally strawberry season here in Maine, so I've stocked up on strawberries. Muffins for breakfast, muffins for lunch, strawberries and GF biscuits for desert. Dinners have mostly been grilled chicken with steamed Swiss chard fresh from my garden. Guess the muffins are probably why I've gained 2-3lbs this week alone (after a steady few weeks of 1lb gains).
Today is my last day of a week on an antibiotic that's been really hard on my stomach. I'm catching up on this thread and ready to start eating non BRAT foods again!!!
I love these cookies I cannot eat a lot of stuff being gluten free. I cannot stop graving sweets. I have to go on pinterest to find good recipes for alternatives.
Too much! I had only gained 5 pounds at 20 weeks, but then in the past two weeks my weight has shot up 7 pounds! I am hungrier and eating more, but I didn't think it was so much. I try to eat decent snacks like cottage cheese and strawberries and not just junk food. My ankles and feet have started to swell a bit, so I suppose some of it could be water weight. I am having salmon for dinner tonight-- I like fish. I am also wanting some zoodles with meatballs this week, maybe some eggplant parm. I love ice cream too much, but am trying not to overdue it. I made fajita quesadillas the other day, those were good. I love to bake, so there is always something around, but I didn't think I was eating much more. Honestly I had one or two pig out days and was probably eating an extra helping of ice cream so I expected the scale to go up a bit, just not this much. I am trying not to gain too much. My BMI was 31 pre pregnancy and I am trying to make choices, which can be difficult when I am hungry..
