So, ive been one of those crazy first time moms who tries to eat the healthiest as possible...getting all the foods from all the different food groups everyday and drinking the right ammount of water....doing my yoga and walking my dog day after day. but you know what i did today? i was having a really crappy week so i grabbed my little side kick (my dog cara) we jumped in the car and i devoured a whole 10 piece chicken mcnugget meal from mcdonalds with a rootbeer! and you know what i think about it?
SO WORTH IT
lol have a good day everyone!

Omg i love banana bread. I had some on Christmas for our dinner and it was sooo good. im all out of oreos now. ill have to send the man to go get me another bag, considering i go through a whole package in two days by myself. lol.  enjoy that banana bread for me and my baby too..lol

[Sunkissed19]

you go girl! im about to bake up a loaf of banana bread :) its DF's favorite.

[ammanda]

Omg homemade m&m cookies sound so good right now with a big glass of cold milk... but i guess ill have to settle for oreos, even though ive been eating them everyday for like a month.. lol... but its the only way i can get my 2 glasses of milk down a day.. cause i never liked milk

[dnikki0928]

So I took your advice and gave in and just made some homemade chocolate chip cookies lol...mmmm yummy!!

[Sunkissed19]

lol im glad i did too :)

[LosingMyMindInGA]

HAHA!  I'm sorry I had to laugh. I've never been one to do the strict healthy diet thing.  I always splurge...i just try to moderate my splurges LOL.  I'm glad you finally gave in :)

Yea i know, i have an amazing book that my sister bought me, called great expectations.  I love it.. i said its okay to have a couple cups of coffee or 2 glasses of pop. but its hard for me. I'm a very negative person, and i worry about my baby a lot. My fiancee lost his first son at birth a few years ago, and i cant imagine going through that or him going through that again. so i do everything and anything i can. but sometimes i slip. like i said i had a cup of coffee last week. and i take sips of pop sometimes.. omg i loved sprite before i got pregnant, and thought it was awesome cause it was caffeine free. but half way into my first trimester i didn't like it anymore.. (which happened with a lot of stuff)  But I do love root beer,,,  i just want a coke, cuz that was my favorite and my fiancee drinks it too so its always in the fridge.. and mt. dew i used to love that.. but i do eat a lot of sugar but i cant help it.... i see it or i think about it and i have to have it lol.. and idk about commercials but i just got so mad about the dumbest thing.. trying to call charter cable... and having to listen to all the recorded people talking i just got so mad and hung up and threw my phone.. that's just not me lol

[Sunkissed19]

oh...btw does anyone else get p issed off at television commercials? screw the food ads LOL! i cant even watch tv anymore without literally salivating...i have resorted to reading books.

[Sunkissed19]

well you know....all the books say that its perfectly fine and safe to have 2 cups of coffee a day...or the equivelent in a caffeinated soda. i never drank caffeine before i got pregnant...rootbeer is my only soda love and its caffeine free! i still try not to drink it often though because of the high sugar content.

Everybody else- im glad the post could make you smile! i knew i wasnt the only one out there sneaking fast food...ive deffinitly went to town on some pizza here and there too! and i get wrecked on chinese food....often LOL i try to think well theres a ton of veggies in there....lol
but lately luckily my biggest cravings have been cooked carrots all mashed up with butter and salt n pepper (im sure the butter and salt doesnt help my swelling but oh well) and granny smith apples cut up in rasberry or vanilla yogurt...mmm so good.

[ammanda]

Omg im so with u guys!!!!!!!!! i try so hard to eat healthy, but i never have in my life. I gave up caffeine and cigarettes completely when i found out i was pregnant. But about a month ago i just wanted a coke. I loved coke before i got pregnant.. and i eat a lot of fruit i still don't smoke i eat veggies. and i drink a lot of milk and water on a daily basis. so i figured having a drink wont hurt.. I refuse to drink more then a a couple sips though. i wish i could get myself to drink a whole pop, and be okay with it, but i worry too much.  Especially when i eat taco bell, Mt. dew is a given with taco bell.  And Coffee, i drank like a whole pot of coffee every morning before i got pregnant. I will admit Ive had a Lil tea cup of it a couple weeks ago, cause i was so weak, but other then that, its so hard. but its worth it, I love my baby...lol.. Just wanted to vent with u guys lol

[faye83]

Omg thank you now I'm craving a mountain dew lol!
I have pizza once in a while, or a burger too. I guess as long as its once a week its ok. My boy makes me eat healthy most of the time and I drink water eeevery day. Have only gained 10 lbs in 7 months so I guess I have to eat more :-(

[Victoria01]

LOL I am right with you. I had taco bell the other night with a mountain dew! :)

[Limonada]

You're so cute :-)

You know.....we went out for McDonald's last weekend and I had a Big Mac...and I had no regrets.  I eat healthy, well-balanced meals most of the time, so I don't stress about the odd indiscretion :-)

Good for you!!

[julianovak]

haha LOL, i remember being pregnant and i completely stopped drinking soda, until i was about 4 months or so, i got the most intense craving for a coke................. oh myyyy that soda was like a high................ lol...... it was SOOOO good that day!!!

[mami1323]

Let me tell you, I tried hard as well but I would crave a whopper with cheese and fries all the time, so I allowed myself that craving every now and again.  Just to satisfy that itch.  You go girl, enjoy!

[Brittny27]

LOL I know exactly what you mean. I try to eat healthy but sometimes those cravings just take over. I drink caffeine every day still but not as much as I use to.
