Whatcha eatin? - Page 5

[Awaken]

Kimchee. All I can say is, I kimchee!!

[Amila]

Ugh I seriously just ate like a ton of pepperoni and cheese, spinach dip (think loads of mayo and sour cream), and two chocolate frosted donuts:

I then ate an entire container of raspberries to make up for it.

I feel sick, lol.

[delicious]

oh, pass the donuts.

[DawnaRose]

chocolate cherry blizzard from DQ :


and now I don't feel like eating dinner!

[veganf]

morning sickness hit this morning. But I didn't puke until nearly lunchtime. Anyhow, I'm eating a ton because I don't want to let my stomach get empty at all because I know then it feels even worse. But only a few things are appealing to me. So be it.

Nov. 14 --
breakfast: 1 slice toast; soy nuggets (my husband buys this crap sometimes : and I just wanted it this morning).
snack: ramen noodles with broccoli & peanuts.
lunch: ramen noodles with broccoli & peanuts, Take II.
snack: 4 slices of toast. :
dinner: 2 slices tofu swiss chard quiche; 2 slices flax & nut toast; roasted potato halves; blanched spinach.
snack: an orange.

I am so craving candy corn (weird, I know) but I'm holding out. I never eat that kind of crap. I wish I could buy just like 10 of them just so I could stop dreaming of them.

I've been all over the ramen as well. I'm always worried about the msg thing (even when not pregnant) so I've been adding my own broth that doesn't have it. Why, oh why, ramen do you lure me so? :

re: ramen - I don't use the seasoning packets, because they're not vegetarian. I cook the noodles, rinse them briefly (because they're oily), then dribble on a little soy sauce, and sometimes sprinkle on some peanuts. I often add frozen broccoli florets or other vegetables during cooking so that there's actual something nutritious about it!

I've only had 2 pieces of bran toast this morning and some coffee. (opps).
I'm trying to finish up work while my son sleeps but it appears I'm chatting on some forums instead.
All I know is, I'm having garlic bread for dinner tonight. YUM. I *heart* garlic.
I'll probably go heat up some fake chicken nuggets or something for me and my son right now. I haven't had much of an appetite, it comes and goes.

Oh, I've never put soy sauce on them, that sounds good! And I always feel bad about the no veggies too, the broccoli and cauliflower additions are my favorite. I'm not veggie but those little packets have always scared me, my mom and sister get horrible migraines with msg so I usually try to avoid it.

Now you've got me thinking of new ramen stuff. What about sesame oil and peanut (or just soy) butter?

I do a Thai peanut sauce over boiled somen noodles--just slightly healthier than ramen, .
Cold soba noodles are the bestest though!
But for some reason the warm salty ramen noodles hit the spot while pregnant.

I've eaten quite a few of those in the last few days, only after I smother with cream cheese, I smother with garlic. Don't ask! Never even occured to me before and I know my breath is terrible!

I have had such a craving for ramen too! I like to put on a spicy oriental sauce with stir fry veggies. The veggies always make me feel better about it.

(Just called DH at the store to add to the list of "stuff" I'm craving) He must hate this phase. Every night is a new craving and only that sounds good. It eases off by the 2nd tri.

[nubianamy]

Ugh, first signs of nausea tonight. I never have nausea so it's hitting me hard. It's not actually bad at all, I'm just a major wuss.

I had my usual awesome breakfast (oatmeal, 2 pc toast w/jam & nut butter, glass o'milk, fruit), but then I skipped my lunch entirely. I'm so bad at working through lunch. Then at our staff meeting I mowed on chocolate snacks and rainbow Goldfish. Ugh! And for dinner, spaghetti w/homemade sauce, salad, whole wheat bread. Not bad.

Tomorrow I'll do better on lunch.

yesterday i could not stop eating! i'm way hungrier than i remember being with dd!!! (my mom keeps saying "maybe it's twins" NOOO!) i ate everthing i could get my hands on. i was especially into raw onions. i usually like them on a veggie burger, but yesterday i had to have huge hunks of it on my veggie burger. (when we eat at MIL's that usually what they have for me. they're pretty meat-and-potatoes.) on our way home i told dh i was starving, and he said, "but you never stopped eating!" we both started cracking up! i told him i'd rather be starving than feeling sick! i think he finds it funny because i'm pretty petite, so to see me puttin' it down like a linebacker is pretty funny. i wish thanksgiving was today. i'm soooo hungry!

I also seem to be hooked on the ramen this time around. I hardly ever eat it non-pregnant but I'm finding myself craving it so much lately.

Good ideas for adding veggies, and other good stuff. I used to add baby bok choy when I was in university and ate a lot of ramen ... it made me feel a little less guilty. I also used to add sesame oil and rice vinegar instead of the seasoning packet. Yum yum! Can't wait for lunch!!

[nubianamy]

Ohhh, man, I am so looking forward to Thanksgiving. Delish!

[Ahimsa]

I found recently at Whole Foods some plain ramen type noodles. They are better than the packets, because they don't have hydrogenated oils.

[elf]

I have been eating A LOT more than I am used to. Probably double.

So far today I have had toasted challah bread with homemade strawberry jam and butter, spinach salad with onions, bacon, grilled chicken and balsalmic vinegarette, and a whole lot of french bread and dipping oils. Oh and LOTS and LOTS of water. I can't believe how thirsty I am.
