Cravings are a funny thing. Before I was pregnant I would "crave" things. Mostly diet coke...but we are only loking at the positives, right?
Since being pregnant I haven't really craved things as much as I haven't wanted to see, smell or taste certain foods. Here are some of my favorites and not so favorites thus far.
The "HATE" list:
1. The smell of Max's chicken nuggets make me want to vomit. I can't stand it, even the thought makes me nauseous.
2. Red pasta sauce. Basically we haven't had Italian since Thanksgiving.
3. Saltine crackers or any type of crackers. Can't stand the smell.
4. Yeast - like baking bread or all white bread. YUCK!
5. Anything with pepper. Hate the taste and the smell.
6. Ginger Ale - the smell throws me for a loop.
7. GUM! Who would have thought, the gum chewer of the world would hate gum? Weird right?
The "LOVE" list:
1. Apples - but specifically Pink Lady apples. The apples have to be cold and crunchy.
2. Cucumbers with lots of salt.
3. Salads - with salt and ranch dressing.
4. Cream Cheese - yes I eat it right out of the container.
5. Yogurt. We have been eating yogurt pops, Creamys, and I have come to LOVE Greek yogurt. I am eating the non-fat organic kind. Vanilla is my yogurt flavor of choice right now. I am not going to get adventurous because I fear that I might not like it. I can't have anything to sweet.
6. Propel - water just doesn't cut it. Propel still keeps me hydrated and gives me a little flavor. Must be cold.
7. Cottage Cheese with ketchup. Will thinks this is NASTY. My mom used to eat it ALL the time. No wonder I love it. Don't picture it, or it will make you say "GROSS"!
I am sure this list will change and maybe even get longer on the "LOVE" side of things. But for right now. This is my diet. This is what I eat on most days. I still feel nauseous at night so around 7 or 8 pm I drink Sprite and sit on the couch until I get into bed.

I have to agree with William's thought about the cottage cheese and ketchup.
