Not alone. I had GD and had to stick to a diet and I still cheated and ate badly sometimes. The stomach wants what the stomach wants! LOL

I crave ice cream and milk shakes. I hated ice cream before I was pregnant and wasn't really into sweets. I try to limit them, but I fear my GD test.

I have not been eating super healthy at all! I have normal meals, but my snacking has been out of control!

I'm a mix. I have tons of fruit and veggies, but I also drink soda and eat cookies and stuff.

Re: Ok pregses-- do you all eat super healthy?

No, I pretty much eat the same as before, with the exception of cutting out things that I know I shouldn't have. I have limited my daily intake of sweets and snacks only becaus i gained 50+lbs with DD and I was already up 20+ lbs and I just didn't want to gain too much weigh. I have my moments....as evidenced by the half sleeve of thin mints last night!!!!!! (YUMMY!!!!!)

As long as your non going overboard everyday and you are taking your prenatal vitamins, I wouldn't worry too much abt it. Enjoy it!

Re: Ok pregses-- do you all eat super healthy?

A lot of the things that I've been craving last few months are pretty healthy I think - tons of fruit, yogurt, water. The other part of the craving is carbs - but I try and mix it up by having whole wheat whenever I can, but other times I just have what I really want - like a delicious fluffy bagel with cream cheese (but I limit myself to once or twice a week of that). I think everything in moderation is totally fine.

I can't stand anything w/ sugar in it ever since I found out I was pregnant - no sweets of any kind, so that's helped but I didn't do it on purpose lol

I eat more or less how I ate before I was pregnant. At 35 weeks, I am only up 21 or 22 pounds. I ate relatively healthy before though, but I do have a sweet once a day.

I'm addicted to milkshakes. I've had one or more every day this week- I eat pretty healthy otherwise.. Like I crave spinach and beans nonstop.. BUT the 8 milkshakes in 5 days kind of takes away any rights of pretending to be eating healthier.

Ok pregses-- do you all eat super healthy?

I don't! I have trouble eating enough veggies and crave carbs and cheese constantly! I worry sometimes but then I remember all the things I am doing right and then I feel better. My OB said the prenatal vitamin makes up for days that are less then stellar health wise.

Re: Ok pregses-- do you all eat super healthy?

Well now I really want a milk shake

I haven't been super healthy. Had a bacon egg and cheese for breakfast

Re: Ok pregses-- do you all eat super healthy?

I only eat whole, non processed foods like chicken, meat, fish, fruit, veggies....


...except when I'm stuffing my face with banana pudding, girl scout cookies, loaded nachos, chocolate chip cookies, etc. Chat Icon

I do the best I can when I can... but I have no problem eating whatever the heck I feel like eating! I'm pretty strict with my food choices when I'm not pregnant but I'm uncontrollable when pregnant. This is my last pregnancy and I plan on enjoying every bite! I mean minute ;)

Re: Ok pregses-- do you all eat super healthy?

I eat a lot of fruit and have salad often and have never been one for fried foods...but I have been having sweets like crazy. I've always had a sweet tooth and would usually have something from time to time but I do not limit myself at all now...it's bad. Double Stuf Oreos, Dunkin Donuts, coffee cake, Girl Scout cookies, Mallomars, Rice Krispie Treats, Pop Tart S'more flavor, Reese's PB Cups etc. etc. I half blame DH b/c he keeps buying me all this sh!t lol

Re: Ok pregses-- do you all eat super healthy?

I ate the same way I always ate when pregnant.
And that is not healthy.
I never ate healthy and I didn't start while pregnant.
I took my prenats. I ate like I always did. No more, no less
I ate McD's on occasions and junk food because that is what I always ate/did.
All was well.

Ok pregses-- do you all eat super healthy?

I try to eat healthy. I actually eat better when I am at work: salads, egg sandwich with whole wheat bread, various proteins. but then the rest of the time I eat anything and everything. My biggest craving is pastries in the morning with coffee and over the weekend a bagel w/cream cheese. then this weekend I ate pancakes and a burger w/fries
I was on a gluten light diet before getting preg and plan on going on it even stricter after so I tell myself its all good LOL
basically I am uncomfortable enough not to resent eating on top of that as well

Re: Ok pregses-- do you all eat super healthy?

well lets see...
I had checkers cheeseburger for lunch, with a bearclaw from panera for desert-with a milk shake!

I honestly could figure out what I wanted to eat so I just went for the "good stuff"

I feel this pregnancy has been difficult for me to figure out what to eat....when I was working with DD1 I use to have so many lunch options in the city...now i'm like eh, i guess i'll just have a bagel-whatever is in the house (which isnt much since I don't/cant cook)

Re: Ok pregses-- do you all eat super healthy?

Before I was gluten free, dairy free - low sugar. Lots of beans, veggies, etc. Now - potato chips, breads, cheese, cheese, cheese, take out food b/c cooking makes me sick. And except for salad I can hardly eat any veggies which is driving me crazy - b/c I feel bad knowing I should - I'm sure I will later on. But I'm giving into cravings - every morning egg sandwich... loving pizza...next up, really wanting McDs.

Re: Ok pregses-- do you all eat super healthy?

I take back my healthy streak LOL. I just had a big fluffy bagel, and now I want another one. I'm not even full from the bagel. I just want to eat eat eat.
