Incredibly jealous....

I'm eating a massive piece of chocolate cake as I type this. Grin

seabuckthorn · 20/06/2012 22:04

I ate 4 giant cookies today
Don't worry!

Mmm chocolate cake...

When I was pg with DS I munched my way Hungry Caterpillar-style through several boxes of Thorntons mini chocolate cakes form Tescos. So many in fact that I was rather embarrassed and hid them under the seats of our car so that DH wouldn't find out. Genius. I was totally busted though when we were involved in a car crash, our car was written off and we had to go to the wreckage yard to empty the car of our belongings. I was 37 weeks pg so a member of staff helped us and stayed completely wooden-faced as he pulled out box after box of these stupid cakes - "and would you like to keep this one as well, madam?" Blush

AKMD Ha ha that made me laugh, I can imagine i'll have the same shame when I have my last day at work and I empty out my desk drawers.......Blush

Do it now in sneakily small trips!

Good idea, I can always start using edible rice paper plates

bettybat · 21/06/2012 06:45

Yesterday I ate two chocolate croissants - the ones from Tescos - and two chocolate bars Blush

The rest of my diet is fine - for the last few weeks, lunches and dinner have basically been some kind of protein (chicken, fish, steak, prawns etc) with salad. And then a huge amount of chocolate. I can't seem to stop :(

newtonupontheheath · 21/06/2012 06:50

A whole pack of Tunnocks caramel wafers yesterday whilst working from home... Got rid I the evidence and dp doesn't even know they existed Grin

Tugstonia · 21/06/2012 14:17

God yes. Multipack of frazzles, fish fingers, curly fries, baked beans and a big bar of dairy milk for lunch... now full of self-loathing!! Making sure I'm getting my five a day in addition but still, my cravings for junk are disgusting.

scarletforya · 21/06/2012 16:05

I have just eaten 4 Tesco chocolate eclairs. They were tasty. Grin

Littlecherublegs · 21/06/2012 16:28

Glad its not just me who cant stop eating then!!
As Tugstonia says above, Im trying to get my 5 a day in as well but the amount of junk Im eating as well as that is ridiculous!!
Bit worried about what weight Im putting on - am 28 weeks and have put on a stone and a half and I hear the 3rd trimester is when you put on the most weight???!!!

Blueaddie · 21/06/2012 16:45

I'm like a human food disposal and I barely care......I am sure when I have to have walls removed so I can get out of the house to give birth I will be a bit bothered, but until then.......

WeeDot · 21/06/2012 16:55

Blueaddie I agree we should be enjoying feeding our unborns.

I ate 2 creme caramels in 5 mins at my desk today, barely even noticed them going down!

MangoHedgehog · 21/06/2012 17:49

A whole box of Guylain chocolate shells in 24hrs Blush

EggsMichelle · 21/06/2012 18:27

So far iv had two croissants, two cream cakes, a cheese and ham toasty and pasta bake. I feel like I haven't stopped eating!!!

DesperateHousewife21 · 21/06/2012 19:40

Ooh I could so devour a cheese and ham toastie now but I have neither ham nor bread Sad

And thanks to arsing natwest I doubt I'll even be able to buy any tomorrow Angry

A whole box of Guylain chocolate shells in 24hrs

snap, but it was in 4 hours and they were my dad's father's day present from my sister [bush]. he claimed not to mind and did have a few.....

It's why I don't let myself buy treats, zero self control Grin

sunshinesue · 21/06/2012 21:07

ha, Blush not [bush], that's another smiley altogether!

VickityBoo · 21/06/2012 21:10

Haha I bought a multipack of time out bars because it was more financially sensible than getting one choc bar for just 30p less.

NINE. Nine timeout fingers I had. Blush

marchpoppy · 22/06/2012 11:38

Am nearly done with a whole packet of shortbread, its taken me under 30 mins Blush

whatsoever · 22/06/2012 12:44

Hell to the yes. My biscuit and other sweet treat devouring skills are gaining legendary status at work and at home. And I wonder why I am enormous already at 25 weeks!

So far today 2 jaffa cakes, a krispy kreme donut and a Rachel's organic rice pudding,. There is a double decker in my desk drawer and there are 3 Taxis with my name on in the fridge at home and a bag of Milky ways arriving with my online shop tonight Grin

Wuxiapian · 22/06/2012 12:51

I'm 8 weeks and have been indulging in the crisps. All 150g packets per day.

whatsinthebagangelos · 22/06/2012 17:31

I am going to be such a whopper by the time this baby is born!

Eating is the only time when I don't feel sick Sad...
