Alright so before I go for real this time I'm off to 5guys! That's safe right?! Well as safe as greasy burgers can be.. yikes it's been a bad food day for me
@mamabearcj - I averaged once a week at 5Guys during 1st Trimester for the French Fries. Potatoes in any form are the closest I have come to a craving, and that was mostly in 1st Tri.
I got almost a pound of saltwater Taffy when we were up anoth. I've been decent about pacing out eating it. However I just ate like 10 pieces and finished off the bag. So much for watching my sugar intake today.
I had tacos for lunch and dinner tonight. Taco truck for lunch, because I decided I won't feel like walking to the taco truck from work in Aug & Sept, so I'd better take advantage of it while I still can. Fave taco spot near home for dinner, because fella isn't here, so it's just me and my expensive taco tastes. (It's def the most expensive taco spot around. But so so good. Fried avocado taco with cashew crema!)
On my way to the taco truck, I waddled down a different side street and passed a little café I'd never seen before. Dude in window was eating a waffle that looked LEGIT. I checked with my boss, and she confirmed: waffles there are LEGIT. It's only 3 blocks, so once I can't waddle to the taco truck anymore, I think I could still waddle to the waffles!

I am going in for a 3hr GD test in am hour an a half. It was totally a mistake to read this, because waffles.
But, waffles aside, tell me more about these fried avocado tacos with cashew crema. This sounds like heaven. I mean. Avocado. And cashew.
Finally bought a ticket to Columbus to get some tacos. I mean to see my sis’s baby. I haven’t told her but I’m just about more excited about the taco truck than snuggling the baby. Said taco truck has those tacos al pastor I was craving and can’t get around here.
@mamabearcj have you tried the burger King hash brown bites?? I only like potatoes as French fries but I love how crunchy the burger King hash browns are!
I was in NYC for four weeks visiting family and basically ate E.V.E.R.Y.T.H.I.N.G. in sight. So much pizza, fries, burgers, ice cream, nachos.. oh my god the nachos
Now that I'm back home I've been trying to be better. Had my multigrain cheerios for breakfast, made turkish cilbir this for lunch, snacked on watermelon, and just ate some delicious homemade spring rolls (the raw veggies in there definitely negate the deliciously rich peanut butter dipping sauce, right?)
I just inhaled an entire box of Samoas. I really want to get steak and a baked potato from Outback delivered but we’re supposed to not be spending money on going out to eat but if I technically have it brought to me, does it really count??
Trying to reign in my carbs for the glucose screening this week led to me having a full meltdown yesterday because I wanted bread and I couldn't handle not eating bread. For one day. Not my best moment.
This past week I have eaten just about everything...a heath bar flurry with chocolate ice cream (amazing), chicken wings, these southwest chicken flatbreads DH and I make...yum! But the one that took the cake was breakfast on Sunday. DH mentioned pancakes and I didn’t even know I had a craving for them. Well we went to the local pancake house and I don’t think I’ve ever eaten so much! 2 scrambled eggs, 3 slices of thick bacon and 3 fairly large pancakes...it was SO good! I need to just stop eating like this, but I have just been so hungry this past week!
Been craving ice cream and popsicles this entire pregnancy, probably have it every other day... it has not helped with the weight gain! Still on a bean kick too, of any kind. Mexican food is life.
DH and I just got our first Imperfect Produce box, to help make sure we are eating more healthy and organic if possible, especially when baby comes. If you live in a city where they have this service it’s totally worth it! We get 10-12 lbs of organic fruit, veg and other random organic items for $23 a week. They do conventional items for like $14 a box. You can customize your box too.
First time doing a grocery delivery service like this, and am impressed. Hoping it’ll make things easier for meal planning and shopping too when baby arrives, fresh stuff delivered and grains/ meats etc. in the freezer and pantry.
Box pictured, minus the bushel of rainbow chard and heirloom cherry tomatoes. Lots of good stuff hiding in there!
I told DH I wanted very specifically Entenmann's cinnamon rolls. No other rolls would suffice. He came home with a box last night. I've practiced self control and only eaten two but they are all I can think about while I'm at work. I can't wait to get home, grab one, and run to the bathroom to eat it so DD won't see.
Re: What My Pregnant Self is Eating - July
JEFF IS MAKING BACON AND WAFFLES AS WE SPEAK!
THE WORD 'SHIT' IS BEING USED AT A FREQUENCY THAT MAKES ME NERVOUS, BUT NOT ENOUGH TO GO IN THE KITCHEN AND OFFER ASSISTANCE. STAND BY.
@sliztee yum! I'm going over to my SILs tomorrow for pancakes and bacon, and I’m so excited to eat them with no work or clean up!

I just had beans, toast, and scrambled eggs with maple syrup!

Also I love that they are trying to brand this? GlucoCRUSH! Mine was just a generic looking medical label, that one looks much more exciting

I decided to follow up my GD testing which I will probably fail with a little ice cream treat. I feel happiness and shame, but mostly happiness
