I am SO gross. 3 weeks to go, and my hormones are apparently making me insane. While DD paints blissfully outside, I decide it's time to finish off a half pint of caramel cookie gelato. Now I feel slightly queasy, but damn, it was good! Anyone else want to share what ridiculous food they have eaten (or ate at this point in their pregnancy) to lessen the guilt, or just commiserate?

Aren't mini-Reese's peanut butter cups supposed to be grazed on throughout the day, much like a person takes a sip of water every few minutes? My husband thinks not, and explaining how we went through an entire bag in two days of me teleworking was kind of embarrassing.

Not currently pregant, but I am sure if you were looking to buy a bag of cadbury mini eggs in the spring of 2010 and couldn't find any, it was my fault.

I love this thread! This time around I'm loving me some peanut M&Ms, and am shamelessly buying the medium and large sized bags so that I have full access to them all day at my desk! I'm also having portion control issues with honey nut cheerios . . .

You're talking about Talenti, aren't you?

I'm a bit jealous of your day

and WAY before pregnancy (and before Weight Watchers) i could easily eat a pint of NY Super Fudge Chunk or Chubby Hubby. Then we started making our own ice cream so I got spoiled. And now that I'm pregnant, any decent amount of fatty dairy gives me reflux. It's going to be a loooong numbers of months.

I'm 8.5 weeks and have eaten a bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios, some fruit, and a banana nut muffin. It's not even 11am. I feel totally sick now.

yes, damn gelato. WHY must it be so good? And to the pp who loved her some cadbury eggs, you did NOT want to see me in the weeks preceding Easter. I would buy a box of those 4 cadbury cream eggs and it would be gone in 2 days. Gross.

Strange thing is, I actually haven't gained near as much weight with this pregnancy as with my first, and I have just been going nuts with this one. In fact, I've only gained 25 lbs total, compared to 50 the first one!! Perhaps mainlining sweets is actually a good thing?

I'm trying really hard to find alternatives to the things i'm fairly certain I'll crave....so I have those Weight Watchers raspberry chocolate ice cream pops and Chobani Champions with chocolate chips. They ARENT the same, but I'm already at pretty decent risk for issues (overweight, and gained more than I want to admit during IVF).
But there's nothing like sitting in front of the TV, alone, with dinner and dessert - some hot and soup soup take out with a Ben and Jerry's chaser.

Oh, I have fond memories of the evening I powered through half a full-sized bag of potato chips before realizing what I had done. I'd been craving them all afternoon, and it was glorious to get my hands on them....

I heart those new white chocolate m&ms Mmmmmmmmm.

I'm so glad I'm not alone! In the past week I've eaten an entire batch of choc chip cookies (I made them with ww flour and flaxseeds, so surely they're healthy, right?) and 2 gallons of ice cream. Oh, and those TJ fruit/cereal bars. And TJ dark choc caramels. Yum. Sad thing is, the dairy helps my heartburn as much as pepcid, and so I can sometimes think I'm justifying it. Haven't gained much weight either.

Last week I downed an entire can of salt and vinegar princles in one sitting. Not my proudest moment.
