Tell me I'm not out of control, LOL.
Today so far I have consumed:
- Coffee
- Whole grain toast with butter, half an egg (the half my son didn't eat)
- Bagel with cream cheese
- Plain quesadilla with salsa and sour cream
- Very large homemade brownie
- Water, seltzer
I'ts 2:30 and I'm 24 weeks. I'm hideous. All carbs?!
What have you eaten today and how far along are you?

Eh, that half an egg is protein - sounds balanced to me 
I'm 18 weeks and definitely have days that are very carb-heavy, but I figure as long as I balance that out with healthier eating on other days it's not THAT bad. I think I need to try harder with fruit, though... Come on, spring!

That doesn't sound crazy to me because when pregnant I usually eat all my calories by about 4pm and then I start to feel weird about food. So I often have a big lunch and / or snack.
Today I've had two bowls of cereal with milk because first trimester ick is in full force. Other than that I usually eat to hunger and don't worry too much!

@peachykeen: I do eat a lot of fruit and yogurt....usually....but I've been having basically 4 meals a day for the past month!
@bhbee: yes me too! I usually eat most calories by mid-afternoon. Then I'll usually just have a small or normal sized dinner. And mayyyyybe a small post-dinner treat

Tortilla chips with ground turkey and cheese
Apple
And about 5-6 bottles of water so far.
It's 3 o'clock where I am.

I'm not pregnant but that's what my Saturdays/Sundays look like 
When I was pregnant with my daughter, I ate nothing but carbs the entire 9 months.

It's 2:30 and you've only had two meals, one snack, and dessert? That's pretty good!
hostess / wonderful grape / 20803 posts
@MrsSRS: haha wellll i figure the bagel was really a third meal. i don't have a problem with quantity, it's just more the quality of the choices lol

@winniebee: YES. All carbs. Thank goodness I passed the GTT. Have you gotten your results back yet? And same - I'm not really hungry at dinner (shocking) and then by the time the kids are in bed I'm thinking about a bowl of cereal...
And cadbury eggs. Gah.

Today I've had
-a handful of cheerios
-a latte
-water
-a small bowl of black eyed peas and rice
-some beef jerky
-celery
-three mini chocolate bars
Not the best day. I don't do a good job of eating meals. I snack a lot instead. I'm 16 weeks. I'm hungry again and about to make myself some cheese and crackers.
hostess / wonderful grape / 20803 posts
@MrsF: I haven't heard yet....so I'm assuming it was fine....but maybe I better sneak in another brownie before I get that call, LOL. I wanted to get some cadbury eggs the other day but then thought....no, you'll just eat the whole bag in a day.
@Mrs. Pickle: that actually seems super healthy to me!

Dude, I'm not even pregnant (still nursing, though), and this sounds like a pretty darn normal day for me.

My day hasn't been particularly healthy. I am only 12 weeks and get a sick feeling if I don't eat every few hours. Then I get sick if I have a full stomach. 
-Rice krispies
-Beef stew, 2 pieces of soda bread, 2 pieces of pie, salad... potluck day at work.
-Tonight will be Panera, probably a cup of soup and a sammie half.

Uhh.. I'm 21 weeks preggo and I know I'm not winning any awards. Today was: 2 chocolate chip pancakes and milk, 2 slices of home made sour dough with butter, an apple, and a cheeseburger with fries and onion rings. And that's and good day. Lol. I'm very sugar addicted this pregnancy.

(I rounded my day off with some goldfish pretzels, a green salad, and a (kind of small?!) flatbread pizza (out to dinner!))

Ugh don't even get me started! It's only 1130 here and I've had FOUR pieces of peanut butter toast, plus oatmeal and tea with honey and milk. I've had three breakfasts!

Today I've had:

I just ate a huge bowl of cheese balls.....seriously. I feel so guilty.....but honestly, they were SO GOOD!

I couldn't eat much for the first few months, so now I'm making up for it.
I usually eat the same things most week days:
Small granola + oatmeal
Avocado toast
Taco salad or burrito bowl
Snack (sometimes healthy, sometimes not)
Homemade dinner
I like indulging in ice cream a few times per week.
My problem is portions. I think I eat too much at each meal. It's going to catch up with me soon though ... I had horrible heartburn during my last pregnancy, and I assume it was from eating too much.

@littlejoy: Most definitely it's basically all air, so barely any calories then....

34 weeks here and I need like 3 breakfasts to get through the morning. So far today I've had:
Cereal with an entire banana
Orange juice
Decaf coffee (cream and sugar... bad)
Bagel with cream cheese
Mexican quinoa bowl with beans, corn, etc.
+ about 60 ounces of water. I'll probably have some yogurt with grapes and blueberries and granola. And then I have to force down dinner because I'm not really comfortable or hungry by the time dinner rolls around. Oh except for chocolate chip cookies, I always have room for those lately!

When I was in my first tri I had all my morning sickness in the evening, so I would wake up, eat breakfast at home, go to work and eat second breakfast at work, big lunch, afternoon snack, then nothing in the evening. I've never eaten so many bagels in my life and it was glorious!

@winniebee: I have had some major sugar cravings the last few days! It's so bad. I also feel like I eat most of my calories early in the day
