Oh, man - I looooove food too. That's what killed me with the diet - I'm a recreational eater - I spend my whole day thinking about what I'm going to eat for all my meals and snacks. I eat for fun, not because I'm hungry. I still don't understand why I've never been overweight.
I wish!!!!My entire family LOVES eating. My sis has major troubles with it actually and is close to 350lbs. My mom and I are around the same size-14/16. I inherited my mothers hips(which makes for easy birthing but my pants don't(or should I say "didn't") like my small waist and LARGE hips;)) so up until I was 23 I was a curvaceous pear shape...and then I had kids...LOL Now all my extra weight sits in my stomach:( Ugh. The only thing exciting about this being my last baby is the fact that I'm going to kick my own ass into shape, not long after he/she is born.Quote:

Mmmmm all this talk of fizzy drinks is making me thirsty. That wedding rehearsal dinner I went to a couple of weeks ago had punch made with gingerale and grenadine. I could SO go for some of that right now.
Ive been craving meat, eggs, vegemite toast and lemonade fizzy drink. Cannot stomach cereal in the morning which is so weird for me cause I love my breakfast cereals, now its vegemite toast instead, Oh and almonds, I really felt like almonds today.

So has anyone developed any cravings? I'm obsessed with lemonade and I'm drinking way too much with it - also apple juice (bought a few gallons today!) and buttered toast. I could usually eat marmite toast all day long but it has to be only butter right now! Also eating quite a lot of sweets but I think that's just a nasty habit I developed on the LE diet!!
at first i went off most foods and didn't really have any cravings.. eating was just a struggle and something i had to force myself to do.. but after about 20 weeks i started to experience some cravings :)
cravings: orange juice! coca cola! chocolate, fruit, cheese and crackers, milk
aversions: chicken! red meat
At the moment Im loving Iced Coffee, and Im hooked on egg/bacon/cheese roll, I get it from my corner shop every lunch & mash with beef goulash is my fav dinner yummmyyyyy! & mornings its my fav vegimite/cheese toast.
Funny cause Im seriously a sweet tooth kind of gal & since being pregnant I have not craved sweet stuff at all, although yesterday I had my first sweet, a small tiramisu.
So glad Im taking a really good multivitamin cause I really dont feel like fruit or vegies, Im hoping this changes with time. I used to always go for a walk with an apple in hand, now I cant even look at an apple.
I'm eating TONS of fruit and lots of sweets. Interestingly, other than the odd indulgence now and then, I'm not reaching for the salty snacks quite as often as I used to (pre-LE diet). I'm still not really into dairy other than cheese. I can't bring myself to drink milk even though I know I should now that I'm preggers, and yogurt doesn't appeal either. I'm also just not interested in meat most of the time, though I craved it a lot while on the LE diet. Tonight for supper I made the rest of the family shrimp and I ate pasta with butter and parmesan. Who knew I'd be purposely eating girl diet foods long after my BFP! That being said, I did have pizza for lunch and souvlaki for supper last night, so I'm definitely eating a lot of things I wouldn't have been able to on the diet...and loving it. I could eat pizza every night and be a happy women :bigsmile:.
Z - when you mentioned lemonade the other day it sounded so good to me I went out and bought some. I had a huge glass today, and it was wonderful! Unfortunately my kids love it too, so we finished the container in one sitting.
