CRAVINGS

Y'all they're real. Like I would sell some of my limbs for bagel bites, maybe a finger for french fries, and don't even get me started on those delicious chicken mini's from ChickHeavenFilA. I'm not kidding, and that's what makes it sick. But here's what's crazy, my cravings change every day minute and I'm never really sure what I want to eat which has caused some tension in our marriage. You KNOW how it is when you're both hungry and neither of you want what the other person wants....


It's awful.

So instead of hating each other, we're buying groceries individually. If you think our grocery bill is outrageous, do not be alarmed, my type of groceries expire in 2020 and are on sale every week. Nate likes the natural, organic, no fun food. But I obviously don't have time for that junk. I need grease, fat, carbs, RANCH DRESSING, lots of cheese, and anything that screams "you should only eat one of me" but we know that's not going to happen. My body loooves me right now, I can feel it.

Since I'm wanting to document this whole preggo thing, here's what I can't live without...

 beautiful.


I need two of these. Every day at the same time. 


Ok my mouth is watering. 


My heaven. GIVE ME ALL THE RANCH!!!


Lately, I've been loving pasta. Like, real love. Spaghetti is always my #1 pick. 


When I wake up in the middle of the night, yogurt is my go-to food. 'Pregnant me' would consider this healthy, but smart me knows very well that the yogurt I'm loving has 20g of sugar in each serving. Buuuut we're going to forget about that, and just eat the damn yogurt. 


I ate an entire carton of strawberries before bed last night. I couldn't stop. Thank goodness I bought 4 cartons (they were 2 for $5).


CHICKFILA FRIES. My world y'all. With some ketchup, I mean YES. Perfection. Let's take Christmas pictures together and live happily ever after. 


I'm probably paying Panera's electricity bill every month. I crave their bread probably once every hour and I always swear that I'm going there straight after work. I stopped doing that once Nate put together a budget and realized half of our life savings were towards keeping Panera in business. Whatever.

I do, however, have to turn down Panera when they ask me if I want a treat. The thought of anything sweet makes me sick. Chocolate, cakes, brownies... GROSS!! Oh and Peanut Butter. I can't even think about it. It literally makes me gag. 

I think that covers everything that I'm loving and hating right now. I'm sure it'll change within the next 10 minutes so I'll need to post this soon before I go back and rewrite it. Also, I have bagel bites in the oven and I need to go make sure that they're ok....

talk soon, 
hungry max

  5. I will come live with you and take care of you while you're pregnant... just because I want to eat all this stuff, too!

  6. I've also been kind of craving everything and anything cheesy... yummy! Although, my cravings aren't very strong and I kind of feel like I may have had them before I was pregnant too... but I agree, sweet stuff just isn't sounding as good lately! Verrrrry strange.

  7. So for us non-pregnant folk, what does it mean if we crave those things on the regular? hmm...

  11. I went through major fat kid cravings until like 12 weeks where I only wanted to eat salads. Now I'd say I'm 50/50. I ate grilled cheese 2-3 times a day for about two weeks around 9/10 weeks. My husband basically was like you need to stop eating cheese, that's disgusting. We don't have Chickfila nearby (like 100+ mile radius) and basically all I think about is their french fries and strawberry milkshakes. And, I'm allergic to gluten, so I'm a big hangry bitch when people eat things in front of me I can't have. I haven't eaten meat though in like 10 weeks, so I guess since I was 5 weeks or so. It makes me gag just to see it at the store. I haven't cooked it either, so I'm pretty sure my husband was looking forward to having meat again at least while he's deployed.
