I'm 12+2 and I'm STARVING all the time. I could eat all day and still be hungry. I even sometimes wake in the night and have to have cereal or oatcakes because I'm so hungry I feel sick.
Which brings me to another point: if I try to ignore the hunger, I feel extremely nauseous, dizzy and faint.
I don't really have 'bad' or unhealthy foods in the house, but having fruit or a bag of popcorn doesn't seem to fill me up. So I'll eat that, then have to have a sandwich after anyway. So might as well have just had the sandwich in the first place.
It doesn't help that up until now all I could really eat was pizza, sausages, cheese and sandwiches (food that normally leaves me cold) and I couldn't stand anything tomato based (I usually eat a mainly vegan/veggie diet based around slowcooker chillis, bolognese with no pasta, curries etc).
I've put on about 8lbs already and feel like one of those queen ants that just gestates and feeds.
And if I'm not eating, I'm sleeping. Or vegetating on the sofa because I feel tired and sick.
What can I eat that will fill me up?!
