I eat smaller quantities now, just because I get full quicker, but then an hour or two later, I'm hungry again. My pregnancy has made me more or a grazer, so going OUT just doesn't work for me. Ordering IN on the other hand, works great, so that happens a lot more now.
For dinner we're eating out more -- out once and take out once a week, I'd say. I've gotten bad about lunch though. I used to eat out once a week, if that. Now, I never want what I pack. So, I've been making it "budget friendly" by going to Au Bon Pain for soup -- its only $3.75, so somehow I make that justifiable. ?
We ate out alot before I got pregnant. Probably 4-5 nights a week. Now I think we order delivery A LOT more than we used to! I don't do the cooking, but we have both been so busy lately and I'm so indecisive about what I want that it makes it easier for us both order delivery!
I think on average we eat out about the same, but I'd say there are more occasions when I randomly decide I want to go out to eat than before. Usually we only go out if we're already out anyway, but now I get cravings and we'll go out just to eat.?

I can't go back to yesterday - because I was a different person then. ~ Alice
OMG yes. It comes and goes though. One day I will eat very little, the next I will be a bottomless pit. This has been going on throughout my pregnancy.

OMG the Au Bon Pain in The Westchester Mall charges $5.25 for soup. Bastids. LOL
We eat out less. DH LOVES to cook, so my being pg hasn't affected anything, except he can't cook pungent foods when I am home.
When we go out, its more of a whim than it used to be. It is usually because I et a craving...
