Food Cravings....

**KKCondrey** · 08-03-2004, 02:01 PM

Okey, I have never really been a big junk food and candy eater excepts at halloween, but lately everytime I go to the store or a gas station I have to buy a Nerds Rope. I can't get enough of those things. The first time I had one I didn't really like it, and now I love those stupid things....lol

I can also "smell" the chili dogs with mustard and onions at the BBQ place that is about 6 miles away. They are wonderful. Also I've been wanting Taco Bell nacho's and steak soft taco's, KFC & Cracker Barrels Mac & Cheese and fruit. I also use to hate McDonalds but I get there chicken nugget happy meal with apples about 2 or 3 times a week now.

Also I use to love love love chinese food but now, I can't stand the smell once we walk in there so all I eat when Joe wants to go there are a few lomein noodles, then I hit the dessert bar and get a plate of apples, oranges, watermelon and any other fruits they may have there.

Over the next few months if any of you find yourselves with a nerds rope, I'd be happy to take it off your hands

I was the Cheeto and Ding Dong Queen with my first pregnancy. Oh and those Peanut Buster Parfaits and Brownie or Fudge Earthquake from Dairy Queen were on my late night runs.

With the twins it was fresh fruit, green salads and lots of chicken that I craved. Is it any wonder I only gained 5 more pound total with their pregnancy than I did with Jaysn??? After I had Jaysn I still looked pregnant for months...with the twins I had them and was right back in my pre pregnancy clothes and noboy could believe that I had just delivered 2 babies.

Here's a visual fix for you Kat.

Thanks Darlene, now if only I could eat that one I would be happy

**KKCondrey** · 08-04-2004, 12:02 PM

I got two nerds ropes at the store last night...lol I had to go do laundry and I ran in the store to waste time and they started calling my name so I had no choice but to get them.

I wanted salsa every day...the hotter the better. And I ate lemons like there was no tomorrow when I was pregnant with Hannah. When I was pregnant with Erick, I had food aversions instead of cravings, I couldn't stand the sight smell or thought of Pizza, eggs, or apples/pears.

For the first few weeks Melissa all I would it would be tortilla chips. I would cover them with shredded cheese melt it and top them with salsa and sour cream. It was wonderful. I'll also get the Nacho's and Cheese from Taco Bell and a pack of the Fire sauce and add that to the cheese as well. I really think I could eat salty, hot foods everyday.

Brings back memories.....

When I was pg with Ryan, I wanted to eat everything, and I do mean everything, in site. I was starving all the time. Other people did not want me around them when they had food, I would mooch. I hope you have lots of nerds ropes to keep you happy.

With Ashley I craved Lucky Charms cereal,sprite and Doritos.

Katie I craved BLT sandwiches,doritos, and BBQ salad even though everytime I ate the salads I got sick

Jackson doritos,cheez its,McD's, and something else I can't remember.

Jayme-Doritos,ding dongs (the cakes LOL),and Ice water...I couldn't get enough.

I ate pretty healthy while I was pg besides the foods I craved. I hate doritos..can't stand them..they stink,and make a mess lol But yet I craved doritos with all mine for about 3 months....Just couldn't get enough. After the 3 month mark..they made me sick to even look at...very weird!

I was very sensitve to smells. Cigarette smoke was the worst.if I even smelled it,I would be in the bathroom. And tuna!! GROSS!!! While I was pg with katie I wouldn't even allow tuna in the house lol Poor Steve,He loved tuna fish sandwiches!

BTW--Congrats Kat on the pregnancy!

Oh Kathryn you did notice that Debbie was craving fruit with the twins and you are craving fruit. Hummm! Yeah!!!! You may be having twin grandsons for me. Also like you visual fix from Darlene

**AmyMCGS** · 08-08-2004, 12:14 AM

I was so

with DD that I actually lost 17 pounds while pregnant and wound up in the hospital. Trust me, you don't want to go there! I had live on toast, chicken noodle soup, crackers, and jello for most of my pregnancy, but I really craved strawberries the whole time. That's not something I normally buy very often, but while pg I think I bought them every time I went to the store. Sometimes I could eat them, sometimes not, but I wanted them constantly!

Enjoy your candy, Kat! Like someone else said, that's one of the perks of being pregnant!

**lucy979** · 08-08-2004, 03:16 AM

With Baylie wanted Fruity Pebbles all the time. With Rylie I just ate everything I could. Once I even ate Doritos with mustard on them! It sounds gross now.

Enjoy it Kat!

I did the doritos (Cool ranch, not Nacho...yucky) thing yesterday...lol Although, I think Speedy wanted them too, she wouldn't stop staring at me. Finally I had to breakdown and give her one of them every few minutes. Lately I've been on a cheerio's kick...lol Based on the commercials for cheerios, at least I know my cholesterol should be okey
