I'm just eating whatever I want these days.  I've tried to cut down on the sugar since the diabetes scare but I still love my sweets!  And potato chips.  I've only gained about 20 lbs this pregnancy.

I too am trying to eat healthy but it doesn't always happen- OK, more often than not! My hubby makes fun of me and says I have a buffet every night- I really don't but I might have half an apple, a handful of cheetos, baby carrots and top if off with half of a pop tart all before bed! Haven't been able to do this for a few weeks though!  Oops!  I just try to mix healthy in with the junk. I haven't craved anything so that has helped and the farther along I get, the less I can get down at a sitting so now I'm down to half an apple before bed or many nights nothing.  I started at 129 and am at 150.4 as of Thursday so I've gained about 21 pounds. I only gained 1/2 pound the last 2 weeks- probably due to the fact that I can't eat much at one time!  Don't worry about the junk if you are getting your healthy in there too. I don't know ANYONE who didn't eat some junk when pregnant- it just comes with the territory!

My dh ratted me out to my Dr. today!!!!!  One of the twins had a pretty rapid heartbeat and my dh said "Could that have anything to do with the fact that my wife is eating junk food loaded with sugar????"  My Dr. just laughed.  Tattle tale!!!!!

Oh my i a eat everything i crave, but with i can't really stand vegetables, fish, and fruits. This baby is too picky i love to eat meat and then have a sweet tempting dessert afterwards. I eat so much i've gained so much weight, i was 139 before pregnancy now im 178, i figure i should eat whatever i want now since i have an excuse for being fat, when i gave birth it's back to counting points on foods from the weight watchers program, that really helps a lot. In fact i want to loose weight since my husband's brother is getting married this december and i don't want to attend the wedding looking like i'm still pregnant.

I eat whatever sounds good. I still get sick so I figure whatever I eat is good. LOL I munch ALL DAY LONG! Cookies, crackers, candy, veggies..whatever I can get my hands on! I don't discriminate!  I love ALL food! (I can't believe I've only gained 18 lbs)

Taken..LOL Like maple syrup? I will admit...I had a eating session with what was left in the bottom of the chocolate syrup bottle with a spoon and a napkin (the napkin was to clean off my hands and face) not a pretty sight..I licked that bottle CLEAN!

I crave syrup.  How weird is that??  I am definitely eating what I want.  I just dont eat a whole lot at once.  I figured I might as well enjoy what I like now, because once Chloe is here it is back on the diet, diet pills and gym!!  I cant wait for that!!

YES! I have been eating whatever I want.  Yesterday I packed a healthy lunch for me to eat at work and I left work and drove to a dairy bar and ordered french fries and a pork tenderloin sandwich with mayo - not healthy at all!  And to top it off I had a regular cola with it too!  I don't crave sweets as much as I do the fatty fried foods, but I do eat my share of cookies.
