i have an appetite for nothing

i'm so hungry right now and nothing sounds good. what's everyone else eating... give me ideas!

 

I have the same problem most days. I usually end up resorting to fruit.

 

For dinner we had a vegetable stir fry and pot stickers. And, I'm about to dive into a chocolate chip cookie. Lately I've been craving pasta and sauce though.

 

I just had some ice cream.

 

Your post caught my eye because I was the same way during my pregnancy. It was rough, I was sick all day and ended up in tears most days because I knew I needed to eat but nothing sounded good or tasted good.

I resorted to plain pasta a lot. It was one thing that would sit okay in my tummy. I also did chicken noodle soup or turkey rice soup. I know the salt wasn't a good idea but I didn't have many choices. Popsicles always went down okay too. :hug99: because this is hard.

 

I have had the same problem through out my pregnancy

 

I have had the same problem my whole pregnancy. I usually resort to grilled cheese and tomato soup. I do eat a lot of fruit and smoothies.

 

i just feel bad because i know i'm not getting enough veggies in. i eat lots of fruit and get a good amount of protein in, and i drink a TON of milk and water, but i just can't seem to get into those veggies. the thought of them just kinda makes me queezy.
well, tonight i ran out to the grocery store and got a frozen dinner: chicken nuggets, corn and mac n cheese. and then i ate 2 slices of bread with Nutella (chocolate hazelnut spread). and two glasses of milk. and in about 3 hours, i'm gonna have to go thru the whole thing all over again :blink:

 

I am a fan of Nutella too! I end up eating alot of grilled cheese and toasted peanut butter sandwiches. Low fat pringles, mostly because I go through sooooo many. I like to eat Black beans with salsa in them. But I am with you there is just very little that sounds good. The babies are apparently growing but I worry sometimes because I just don't eat like I think I should....I try though.

 

I eat alot of fruit when I can't decide for some reason it is very satisfying, and when I want to mix it up I just make it into a smoothie. And for some reason even though I know its not food I crave for ice alot.

 

one of my fav's was PBJ with Fritos or Fritos and Bean dip - not the canned stuff. it's homemade black bean salsa type stuff. Neighbor kept making it for me.

 

That's how I feel now too. Last week I couldn't get enough food...starving all the time. But this week I don't even feel like eating. For dinner, I had chicken stuffing. Seriously. It was the only thing that sounded good.

A fruit smoothie sounds really good right now, though....

 

Lately I've been craving lentil soup with grilled cheese and turkey....yummy! Tonight we're having pizza, I know it's prolly not the best for the two munckins, but healthy foods sound repulsing. Veggies are not at the top of my list either...having a hard time eating them. I also had a meatball sandwich for lunch and that was tasty. I'm always looking for food ideas b/c like everyone else, I'm having a very hard time with figuring out what I want to eat....UGH!!!!!!!!! It's soooooo annoying too! With ds I had cravings that would last forever. It was great b/c I always knew what I wanted to eat.

 

I haven't had nutella in years! Wow... memories.

I am the same way right now. I wonder aimlessly around our kitchen and absolutely nothing sounds good.

A fruit smoothie though- that caught my eye.

 

I've become quite the fan of Sheetz Nachos Grande...lol..Yes, not the best, but it's what my body wants! (Plus you can add some diced tomatoes or peppers to make it more healthy)

 

I ate almost a regular meal last night. I woke up yesterday feeling good and still do today. Up until yesterday, I could only eat plain mashed potatoes and brown rice. I was so uspet, food which was once my favorite thing in the world had been robbed from me !

 

Too funny reading all the posts on this!!!

With my pregnancy with my DD last year, I had severe cravings - fruit all the time, any spicy food, pasta with tomato sauce, and ice cream galore! (I would go to Costco for the Hagen Daz ice cream bars!)

This pregnancy has been - "hmm, I think I'm craving this". Go out, buy it, take a bite, and then: "nope, not that!"

Everytime I meet up with friends for lunch, they always say, "well, what does the pregnant one want? what do the twins want?" and I have to say that I have not had strong cravings for this pregnancy. Everyone thinks I'm being polite about it but it isn't the case.

Still craving fruit - right now I have apples, honeydew, blueberries, and nectarines taking up a whole shelf in the fridge.

And then, every other night I wake up in the middle of the night and have PB&J.

 

I am the same here. I just have no food cravings. Really weird b/c with my last two pregnancies I ate and ate and ate all day long and loved food. Now I just have to force myself to eat it. I have no appetite anymore. I guess there is no room for my stomach.

 

Me too -- no cravings for anything at this point. Once I eat something, I feel like I'll be full forever (not much room in there), and then a few hours later I'm absolutely starving but nothing sounds good! I have been terrible about eating veggies (and I used to eat them all the time), and I have to try pretty hard to get enough protein in for the day..... Of course I had no problem eating a bag of sour patch kids last night!
