Guess what?! I'm pregnant!  

post #1 of 17

New confessions!

I just got back from Walgreens and checked out with:

1 box of Mike and Ike candy
1 bottle of Orange soda
1 box of pantiliners
1 bottle of Pepto Bismol

Granted, the PB was not for me, but BOY did the checkout lady laugh!!!


Furthermore, the other day (and dp is the ONLY person who knows this...) I ate a pickle. Then about 15 minutes later, did, in fact, decide I wanted ice cream. So I had that too. Yes, folks, pickles and ice cream.


That is all.

ok. I'll confess too.

I am just finishing up a carton of Breyers coffee ice cream. I have avoided caffeine this whole pregnancy, except for a few ice teas when out to dinner.

I don't know how much is in the ice cream, but I have eaten almost the whole carton, 1.75 quarts, minus a bowl my man ate before he went to work.
Maybe I should just put this away before I get sick :

I can't go and buy junks when I go out, I feel guilty! I'm always so proud going to the store bying my organic veggies milk, meats etc.

I get weak at the movies. I bring my own chocolate (organic) and eat a ton of popcorn with a TON of butter, mochi crunch, furikake, and salt. I also have a cherry Icee.

I give up.

I actually bought a pregnancy test the other day for a friend, and the checkout person looked at me like I was NUTS. I mean, with this giant belly, can you imagine if I didn't know I was pregnant?

This thread makes me laugh The other night I was sorting through my dresser drawers and found my + pregnancy test (I'm weird... I keep them until the baby is born ) I held it up and said to dh "Honey, I don't know how to tell you this but I'm pregnant" He just rolled his eyes at me

chocolate covered cherries from trader joe's. I ate the entire container, and I've been wondering why my belly was aching.

I finally did pickles and ice cream a couple nights ago. Giggled at myself while I was doing it.

Had two samples of everything they had out to nibble on at Whole Foods today. Ds was with me in the cart, but shame shame, he didn't want "his," so I took one for the team...

Went to Krispy Kreme on the way home from WF to pick up some of those new whole wheat donuts and the woman working the drive-thru...bless her heart, told me it would be cheaper to get a dozen donuts for how many I'd already ordered (7) and I felt NO guilt taking home the extra 5 donuts. Did, however, feel guilty, that my 17-mo-old in the back seat knows that drive-thrus are for delicious naughty food and I had to share one of my donuts with him. Good thing I got extra.:

Frozen dinners. That is all I will say.

I'm having an unhealthy relationship with fast food french fries at the moment...

and some break and bake cookies were consumed...(although, in a nod to my pregnancy, I actually baked them this time )

But I'm also amping up my protein, so lots of good protein and veggies also, I promise.
however, I'm about to go have some Ben and Jerry's Black and Tan ice cream. But I'll have a glass of milk with it for some extra protein!

I am jealous of all you who can eat. I struggle to get in 2 meals and a snack. The only thing I have splurged on this whole pg is Cold Stone Creamery's cheese cake ice cream with brownie in it. I have to be really careful though cause if I eat something like that I can't fit anything else .

Oooh - I LOVE this thread!!

My weaknesses are homemade pie (made an apple pie "for dh" the other week...and ate 3/4 myself in 3 days!!!) : That and smarties!! (To bad the dollar store is closed!) At Christmas time I bought a bag and divided them up between the stockings...then had to go buy another bag b/c a week later I'd eaten all the smarties out of everyone's stockings!! :

And for me it's pickles with chocolate frozen yogurt...that's about as healthy as it's gotten folks! No wait - mandarin oranges! I crave mandarin oranges!!

Granola bars. I always liked them, but now, no kidding!, I spend almost half our grocery money on them! No wonder we're broke! They have to be the hard kind, Honey Oates I think they are. And no other kind will do, not even the cereal, which is cheaper but basically the same thing.

Thank goodness, no pickles and ice cream for me! The thought just makes me sick...
