Totally. "Vegetables?" What are those?

I am trying to be good about the water though. I want to make sure I keep my fluid levels ok so they don't start talking inductions!

I was running around all day & forgot to eat. All I had was a bunch of cherries & I am not hungry. I have been drinking water like mad though. I hardly had any calories today, does this mean I can have ice cream for dinner?

Those are called french fries!!! Seriously, I have had a major addiction to french fries from McDonald's, of all places!

I hardly eat as well. I forget during the week, but I make up for it on the weekends when my husband is home. We usually get Taco Bell and soft serve ice cream. So yeah my eating habits have slid down hill in the health department. My only saving grace is that we have a share in an organic co-op and all the yummy veggies can't go to waste so I eat them!

i love taco bell. :
and I have a serious aversion to my own kitchen and cookingwears. :

to say my diet has slid downhill - would be an eroneous lie that I can't bring myself to speak. To say that it has fallen into the 7th circle of h-e-double hockey sticks would be much more appropriate. I eat such crap food, it's not right. I have eaten two cans of spaghettio's in a 36 hour time period, there is something wrong with me.

I don't wanna eat, I don't wanna cook.. Except in the morning when I'm REAAALLY hungry.
People keep bringing up ice cream today! I'm gonna go have some right now (asked DH to come home with some

Same here. The only thing I seem to want on a regular basis is eggs and toast. I'm hungry but nothing sounds good.

Oh, except junk food. I'm always up for cheetos or pie. I can't believe I just uttered "cheetos" and "pie" in the same sentence, how disgusting...

I just got the most fantastic blueberry ice cream from Trader Joes yesterday. About 15 years ago, Ben & Jerry's made a blueberry ice cream (not blueberry cheesecake or some other concoction, just blueberry) and discontinued the flavor. Ever since I have not been able to find a similar flavor until last night! I had a bowl last night and I've been thinking about it since...I am so pathetic to be this excited about an ice cream flavor!

Cheetos. I just bought the Trader Joes version and they are so yummy. Although not as fattening and without the hydrogenated oils.

That blueberry ice cream sounds fab PrettyBird!

I've been a vanilla soft serve nut lately.

SabbathD you are too funny

I dont have much of an appetite right now, but I do like 1 subway (I've never liked Subway before) footlong veggie delight ($5.08 ) a day-that usually does it for me. I think it disgusts my dh because he never eats out, and we always eat organic. -That and I have it covered in mayo...Oh well.

My MW acts like something is wrong because I haven't gained weight in two weeks-and she wants me to drink protein smoothies-but of course I broke the blender last week. I dont know why shes making a big deal out of it-I've heard about it happening to lots of women-and that its pretty normal. Some women even lose weight in their last month of pregnancy.

Yeah Ashtree - I really wouldn't worry about the weight gain thing. You don't really need to gain weight at all in the last month. A lot of midwives and doula's have all told me that. I am in the same boat. No more weight gain here, but that's just FINE with me. I was already a bit tubby when I started this pregnancy. I actually would like to use this as a springing board to getting back to where I was a few years ago, and lose about 50 lbs over the next year. That would be LOVELY!! And I am pretty sure that I can do it actually!!

: breastfeeding is my weight loss plan. I guess you could say pregnancy is my (long term) weight loss plan

I wish my dh would hurry up and learn to cook!
there hs been a lot of salad eaten in this house at the moment because its just too hot and i'm swollen up like a beach ball - but if i don't make dinner then we all go hungry. i would happily just eat cereal all day.
i have been eating more junk though - i like chocolate again after going off it for months and lots of white bread (home made) and cheese with butter.

i wish there was no more weight gain but i think this 5lbs in 2 weeks just has to be water! but then i am being very lazy and notv moving from the sofa!

Yeah. I'm off of veggies too. All about fresh fruit though. Other than that I'm feeling like bland bland bland stuff. Scrambled eggs, bagels, Top Ramen. :

I'm jealous of all the ice cream and soft serve talk, sounds so yummy. I cut out dairy about two months ago in hopes of preventing an awful first 8 weeks with Mr. Baby (dd was allergic to dairy through my milk for about the first 8-10 months we breastfed). Tofu yogurt just does not cut it!
