3rd Trimester ladies.....

I have been eating pretty healthy throughout my pregnancy, now that Im down to the end...all I want is JUNK, anyone else feel this way??

Re: 3rd Trimester ladies.....

It might have to do with the face that i've been sitting home for 4 weeks, but i have been hooked on junk food..its terrible.

I can't complain about my 40 pound weight gain when the McDonalds valiue menu has become my new best friend, lol.

I think its also mental...meaning that i know i'm kicking my butt back into healthy gear once he's here so i'm trying to get the cravings satisfied now. Hey, its the one thing that makes me feel better while I suffer in other ways!!

Re: 3rd Trimester ladies.....

I have not been the best eater throughout this pregnancy , so I cannot say my junk food consumption has gotten better or worse in the 3rd tri

.. but I do still crave the worst junk possible all the time and I truly was NOT this type of eater pre-pregnancy.. I had just lost nearly 40 pounds and was on a major health kick

Lately, I'm queasy and nauseous a lot again (i'm 35 wks) but when I do eat its always chips.. or ice cream.. or fried foods sooo bad!

Re: 3rd Trimester ladies.....

Me too!

I was just thinking that although I had a relatively healthy lunch that the lack of junk food just makes it seem not as filling and was thinking about a trip to the vending machine to make up for it



Although I had a bad Cheetos incident a couple of weeks ago. Had one of those Grab Bags with lunch for a treat, and that night my ankles were huge! I forgot how much sodium was in them! Darn it.

Re: 3rd Trimester ladies.....

This pregnancy I have had such a sweet tooth (very different from my 1st)... especially for danish, cookie, cake, ice cream. I've been wanting more junk food the past two weeks though (mcdonalds, chips, peanut m&ms). I really really really have wanted sweet iced tea too. (I've been indulging a little but not as much as I've wanted to!)

Only a couple more weeks ladies!

Re: 3rd Trimester ladies.....

I definitley have not been eating as well as I know I should. I still have the junk food when I crave it.
Yesterday, my 3:00 snack was two Ring Dings and a Rice Krispy Treat - yummm!

Re: 3rd Trimester ladies.....

This describes me too! I had been eating sooo healthy this entire pregnancy and now with two weeks to go, I have been putting away the breyers like nobody's business! Everytime I go to the dr I cringe when I step on the scale to see what I've gained in a week. It also doesn't help that I'm now working from home and seem to snack all day long. I cna't wait to get my old body back already!!!!

Re: 3rd Trimester ladies.....

This entire pregnancy I craved sweets (pre-pregnant I didn't). I don't really eat alot of fried or fast food, I craved more muffins and sweet cereal and I do have dessert almost every day and maybe even more than once day

Re: 3rd Trimester ladies.....

The 3rd trimester has been my fave so far...Ive been eating everything bc I know I havent gained alot.

Re: 3rd Trimester ladies.....

lol...i have started to ease up on eating healthy too - i figure heck, wh not - its almost over!!

Re: 3rd Trimester ladies.....

yes, all I want is ice cream and pop tarts

Re: 3rd Trimester ladies.....

I've been on a cookie kick and I rarely ate cookies before.

Re: 3rd Trimester ladies.....

the past few weeks all I want is junkfood.

I think I'm just feeling overwhelmed and tired of being SO good all of the time.....

Re: 3rd Trimester ladies.....

lately I have been craving foods that are sweet like chocolate...up until now I didnt even think about chocolate
