What my pregnant self is eating - June

What’s on the menu these days?

Re: What my pregnant self is eating - June

  • Made an emergency errand run for fuzzy peaches last night. Also, I don't think I'd had a dorito since my university days, but recently tried one at work and now I'm obsessed. Normally not a huge fan of heavily flavoured chips but holy moly it was life changing 😂😂😂 Also still watermelon.

  • Right now the things that I love the most are peanut butter and heavily iced water 😂
  • I love heavily iced water at all times. It started with my second and now it's the only way I can even drink water. 
  • @krysnicole1022 just the past few days I've been craving heavily iced water too! tastes sooo much better.
  • Seeing how my body responds to Zipfizz since I can no longer stomach coffee. Sweet, sweet dose-specific caffeine.
  • I’m there with you on the peaches! And I cannot stop with the TJ’s spicy candied pecans
  • I can eat eggs again! Also, we had corn on the cob last night and it's always one of my summer faves but it tasted extra great to my pregnant face.
  • Yes to the corn on the cob! We had it last weekend and it was heaven.
  • Ice cream, I am craving it all the time.
  • Y'all, this is not a specific thing, but lately I've been having what I'm calling grazing storms. I'll suddenly have this wave of needing to snack on all the things, and I want to hit every flavour. It doesn't matter if I've recently had a meal or not. My weight is still below my pre-pregnancy weight despite these surges of nommery, which makes zero sense to me. Anyone else getting sudden extremely urgent snackiness? 
  • I don't know if I'm craving sweet because that's what I want or because I had gestational diabetes last time and I know I'm probably gonna be diagnosed again so I'm eating what I can before the hammer falls. I just had a massive cinnamon roll with cream cheese icing that I had no business eating but it was amazing
  • @reirei84 my GD hasn't hit yet so I'm definitely eating all the bad foods I love that I won't be able to eat once it hits. These bad foods include most fruit as well but also my favorite ice cream. I have 6 weeks left until it hits so yes I'm going to enjoy strawberry lemonade and a donut here and there. I do it in moderation so I don't see the harm. 
  • Live your truth, @pangolindrome 👏👏👏
  • I have been drinking Arnold Palmers every chance I can. I prefer them with high quality lemonade but will settle for soda fountain variety in a pinch. 

    Also, if you’re going to a restaurant that makes really good cocktails, virgin mojitos are a perfect summer beverage!
  • @EmilyE13
    yes, yes, yes to all the Arnold Palmers!! I can't stop.
  • Yes yes yes -- lemonade, juice spritzers, fruit of all kinds: apricots, cherries, strawberries, mango, and pineapple. Also ice cream every night. And soft cheese on crackers for midday snack.

    The other day I made a virgin Moscow mule and it was delicious!!! Just need to find more ginger beer, because the last two grocery stores I went to didn't have any! 
  • @krthouse Yes, I’ve been on the snacking binges as well! I am finally at my pre-pregnancy weight at 23 weeks. I was feeling bad about all the snacks, but I’ve decided to let go and just eat when I’m hungry. Trying to sneak in fruit and salads when I can, but those dang carbs just keep calling my name!
  • I'm all about the strawberry lemonades and any fruits I can get!
  • Today’s treat was strawberry jam that i made with strawberries from our garden on homemade bread ! 
  • It got warm outside and I started craving hot cocoa... so I've had it every day since.

    We ordered in a massive BBQ feast from a smokehouse last night for my birthday and it was SO GOOD. I've been craving southern BBQ this whole pregnancy but most places the servings are too big for a random night in. The brisket and cornbread were a thing of dreams 🤤
  • @krthouse happy birthday!!!
  • @krthouse yess to the granola and fresh fruits!! Literally been my breakfasts every morning since the beginning of this pregnancy and basically all I’ve craved the whole time haha 
  • @sandy5693 Thank you 🥰🥰🥰
