Food on the brain...

Ok I feel like I have food on the brain. I never eat as much as I have been thinking about it. I actually usually have a very small appitite. I eat when I am hungry which usually is rarely. even the first 67 months of my pregnancy I had a very small appitite and ate only to fill the hunger spot. BUt lately I think about hardly anything BUT FOOD! and Im thinking of things that totally dont go together....
Today it was spagetti... then i wanted milk but had to go to the store to get it. I swore all I would get was milk. I ended up 20$ later with milk, chocolate, and 4 kinds of chips....oh and sour cream... the sour cream was to dip the chips in. My duaghter picked out some honey mustard pringles and I thought ewww.... but then what was the first thing I open??? my daughters chips and I ate half a can. Now I cant decide between more pringles, other chips, chocolate, sour cream, or ice cream or cheese cake... I want the ALL right now but know I cant eat them all lol.... please tell me some one else has food on the brain as bad as I do!!!! Posted on 10/31/09, 04:10 am |

Girl, let me tell you about food. I am hungry....not just craving something for the taste.....but HUNGRY, at least every 2 hours! ANNNND.....I've been vegetarian since the age of 13, I am 25 now, UNTIL YESTERDAY!!!!! I broke down and ate a chicken tender!! It smelled so good, and I was so hungry.....anyway, I had to get more today. I'm telling myself that I will only eat chicken, turkey and shrimp while I'm pregnant, but once I have her, I'll go back to my veggie lovin ways.

I know the feeling. I am 18 weeks pregnant and all I think about is food. I literally dream of strawberry Eggo waffles and mini Snickers (not together though). My husband has actually banned me from going to the grocery store by myself because we end up with so much random stuff that looks good on my trip. Of course because of pregnancy brain, I also forget a good portion of the stuff I was there for. It makes for a dangerous combo. LOL. I wonder what food I will be dying for next week!!!!

YOU KNOW WITH MY FIRST 2 KIDS MY CRAVINGS WERE VERY SPECIFIC AND LASTED A WHILE. I would crave like carrots and dip for a couple weeks at least actually the whole first trimester, then it was watermelon (and I blame it for my gestational diabeties lol) then third trimester it was steak and olvaltine milk, but this baby has me allll over the place. Those pringle chips I couldnt get enough of... i REPLACED MY DAUGHTERS CAN OF CHIPS (we have a system in our house, if we pick out a treat each person picks thier treat and leaves everyone elses alone, that way when you want your treat its there in the cupboard no matter how long it takes for you to eat it.-we had to do this cause my son had no sence of politeness when it came to eating the snacks up) any how I replaced her chips and they were buy 2 get one free so I bought 3 cans of the same kind and now I barely want them... ugh oh well some one will eat them lmao

Okay, I find this absolutely hilarious because I think I am in the same boat as you. I think about food all the time, but just because I am thinking & talking about food doesn't mean I am eating it! I get frustrated because I am thirsty and know I need plenty of water but it fills me up so I feel over stuffed when I eat!
Currently I am wanting either a quesadilla loaded with tomatoes, onions, bell peppers and broccoli OR pizza loaded with the same vegies OR an omlete loaded with, you guessed it the same vegies! I am also dreaming of the up coming pumpkin pie with whipped cream for Thanksgiving. I am in California where the temperature has been around 94, so I am longing for cold weather so I can enjoy hot cocoa with marshmellows- and not just the little ones, I want to dip large marshmellows in like you would with a cookie! I am not a vegetarian but I have not eaten beef for 20 years and for some reason I have been wanting to bite into a big fat cheese burger loaded with vegies! For the last 20 years i have eaten meatless burgers or turkey burgers or soy/vegie burgers... but I keep imagining biting into a real burger! I'm not going to do it because I know it will give me a tummy ache, but it is just strange! BTW plain Lay's potato chips dipped in plain sour cream or a loaded baked potato sound really good now that I am thinking about your post!
