My eating and cravings are out of control!! :)

kim81 · Mar 24th, 2011, 13:45 PM

Hi All, just wondered if anyone is having trouble with this too. I am not eating everything in sight, but ever since the morning sickness started on Sunday, nothing of the usual healthy food i was eating is sounding good, and I am small, but feeling terribly larger. Probably not, but that's how I'm feeling!!!

I am constantly nauseous, then fine, then nauseous, if I have an empty stomach I feel sick. So then I eat all the time!!!

All I want is bad food- pizza, cheese, macaroni and cheese (pretty much cheese....) ahhhh!!!

Salad, veggies sounded awesome last week and I was eating more than usual. Now I'm having trouble thinking about them without puking!!! Anyone else??

Oh i know the feeling, all i crave is cheese, in all ways, cheese on toast, macaroni and cheese, cheese sandwiches, it's really bad, but i can't get enough of it, trying to eat veggies too, but i seem to throw them up >

Feeling the exact same! My morning sickness kicked in right when I turned 6 weeks. And in the few days since then all I can stomach are carbs and cheese. I'll feel nauseous, then I'll feel nauseous and starving at the same time, and if I eat cheese and crackers I'll feel a bit better.

Before the MS kicked in I was eating huge salads evernight and all different kinds of vegetables. I can still stomach fresh fruit okay, but veggies or salad? Blech.

well gee. i feel left out! i am five weeks and three days and still no ms

Ha Ha...I literally just ate a box of macaroni and cheese (which I never do). I guess I feel a little more normal now! I haven't been throwing up (though I fear it's coming) but usually feel a little nauseous in the am and when my stomach is empty. I've also been burping like crazy...anyone else have that?? The past couple of days I've sort of been turned off by most food...except carbs. I could hardly eat yesterday until last night and the I just wanted crackers and cheese and then some pasta. Ha. I have been eating really well the past few months, but now I feel it's all going down the drain because nothing sounds good to me!

Hi guys! That is so funny, it seems cheese is the big trend!! I just found a red velvet cupcake here at work and that was pretty good too..

But yeah, veggies went from great to being so hard to eat!!

Pooniby don't worry get back to us in a week. Last week I was the same time along as you and was wondering about MS... and I hope you don't get any!!!

Im with ya on this! I tried to eat peas last night and it was awful....but of course any fast food chain I have no problem with visiting. That and candy..I just want lots candy!

I went through a little phase around 5 or 6 weeks of just not feeling like eating... well I am making up for it now!

I'm lucky in that I haven't had any morning sickness but I start to feel pretty bad if I'm hungry. It's mostly the fear of feeling hungry that's driving me to eat and I can't stop! I haven't dared weigh myself but I can tell by looking I've probably put on about 7lbs. I feel gross.

The annoying thing is, if I try to eat healthily it doesn't work. I get hungry again half an hour later and end up eating something heavier anyway.

If I keep this up I'm going to be the size of a house

I went from liking my usual foods- which included loads of salads and veggies and healthier stuff to pretty much carbs and cheese! LOL. I CRAVE a breakfast burrito (with egg/cheese/hashbrowns) pretty much every morning at work!!!! But the rest of the day not a whole lot sounds good... I've just started to feel better though and now I'm craving "bad" foods- like pizza and donuts... which I didn't crave at all when I was feeling queasy! Uck!

I'm sure there will be lots more ups and downs as the weeks progress... it's normal

That's so crazy I thought it was just me. I'm used to eating lots of salads and veggies with lunch/dinner, but all I've wanted the past couple of weeks is carbs and fruit, it's so unlike me. And I absolutley can't stomach chicken in any form. I hurt DH's feelings twice this week by not eating the dinner he cooked, just couldn't do it, where ususally I love his cooking, but the chicken ugh
