I've already mentioned this in other threads, but I'm currently living off of crackers, chicken broth, dinner rolls, protein cookies, and ramen from my favorite Japanese restaurant in town. Anything not soup-like or bread-like is pretty much anathema, but I have been able to keep down yogurt on a couple of occasions (Noosa, if you're wondering).
Drinking a small amount (8 oz) of Simply Lemonade before bed has been helping me cope with midnight/early morning nausea.
I've given up, frankly. I'm relying on the buttload of vitamins I'm taking to do the job.
My nausea has been so awful I've lost a pound this month from not wanting to eat much. Things I have been able to eat- toast with butter and jelly, and steak tostadas lol
My nausea, gagging, and vomiting have really set in this week. I’m 10 weeks today so thought I was lucky and missed out on the not so lovely feels of MS. I guess not. I have found sour and salty things helpful. Pickles, crackers and cheese, and watered down lemonaide have been my go tos. I have also been told for sever nausea to try and bite into something really sour like a lemon and that should help curb the worst of it.
@deecherise my favorite is liberté vanilla bean. It's pretty sweet, but see delicious. And my third favorite is Oui by yoplait. If you like the tangu aspect of Noosa you'd probably like the flavor profile of oui. It's a really thick yogurt.

I can’t eat much in the AM or day. Night is usually better. This morning I had bread and fruit but promptly threw it all up. I’m worried because I always throw up like 15 mins after taking my vitamins so what if they’re not getting to my blood in time. Haven’t tried to eat more yet. I really want sugary juice or a coke but I don’t feel like leaving the hotel.
I recently discovered that jello is actually delicious without alcohol and really helps in the "so hungry I'm nauseous, but too nauseous to eat" department. One of my mommy friends told me about it.
@WinchesterGirl You wrote a haiku about food. I think I'm in love.

For some reason I’m really craving that weird chia seed gelatinous texture. I had a smoothie with it yesterday, and broke down and made a giant batch of chia seed pudding this morning to last a few days (watch as of tomorrow I get an aversion to it lol)
Other than that it’s all salt and briny acid all the time. I just had a pre-dinner snack of crackers topped with smoked salmon-flavored cream cheese, anchovies, and capers and it was the besssssttttt
Tacos and horchata. Going down right now. The do not disturb sign is on my door.

ATTENTION: I am going grocery shopping tonight and buying cucumbers and cream cheese. Tomorrow I eat cuke & cc sandwiches allllllllllll daaaaaaaaaaaay!
This week it has all been about fruit and bagels for me. I'm having a hard time with vegetables and meats, but doing my best to keep getting protein and healthy foods. The only thing that seems to keep my nausea away is ABE - always be eating. Now that I'm back at work after winter break that is proving to be more difficult, and I'm way more tired. Looking forward to this (hopefully) going away in a few weeks when my second tri gets here!
@drmrsthecounselor I second the ABE. I've already gained 10 lbs. I also gained a ton of weight (60 lbs) with my first two pregnancies because of ABE...But have been fortunate to get it off post pregnancy.
@drmrsthecounselor I'm right there with you on struggling with meats and vegetables! Meats, more so, but vegetables just sound disgusting.
I've been living off of grilled cheese & tomato soup (the Campbell's kind you just mix with milk and heat... not some good kind lol) and the occasional PB&J. I can usually handle fruit, and have been craving pomegranates and oranges.
So I was really good and put three servings of fruit in my lunch today. (One was a dole fruit cup, but it still totally counts!) I mentioned to my DH that I was proud of my lunch, and he said "Why, because you snuck a hot chocolate packet in?"!!! I love him, and he is amazing, I love him, and he is amazing, I love him, and he is amazing...

This is me. Every morning has been a cinnamon raisin bagel with butter and a glass of chocolate milk. It has been gloriously delicious.

Add me to the bagels club! I have one every morning. Meat is gross gross gross. And the only vegetables I want are cucumbers and veggies on a Subway veggie sub. What is even wrong with me!?
I normally eat carrots and hummus for lunch... the thought of carrots makes me want to vomit. Reading about pickles made me nearly vomit... oh and sweets... nope nope nope... even if I think oh just a little bit would be tasty, I live to regret that decision. right now its crackers and white cheddar popcorn... occasionally cheesy eggs. I don't enjoy the food aversion part of pregnancy.
