The "I'm a disgrace" thread

[backwardpossom]

I've just eaten a whole jar of pickled beetroot. It was Baxters Sliced Beetroot, and if the jar had been one of the bigger ones, I'd still have eaten the whole lot.

17+3 and an absolute disgrace.

Come on then, let's have your food confessions...

Yesterday I was out shopping for hospital bag items and I detoured through Sainsbos to get bread and butter pudding. They only had the small two portion packs :(

I ate them in the car with my hands.

I have drank 6 litres of milk between thurs and yesterday.

And tonight I have just eaten two bowls of baked beans. (accidentally dipped my phone in it while trying to post this )

I am 36 weeks and I have lost weight!!

Hello I'm elvis, 38 weeks pg and a disgrace.
I made a rice pudding for between 4-6 people. Had a bowl, then ate the rest of the bowl. I'd also had cravings for fanta orange so after the rice pudding I drank an entire 2litre bottle of it.
I have to confess to feeling slightly ill afterwards.

My name is TheDetective and I am currently waiting for the microwave to ping with my breakfast. A vegetable lasagne microwave meal and in an hours time I will be having a cheese tomato and mushroom toastie from the sandwich shop when DP gets back from the school run!!!!

Yesterday I ate a whole pan of cooked frozen cabbage at 8am. When what I really wanted was a roast dinner at 8am!!

To be fair, I can't eat a whole meal in the evening and as in waking at 4-5am I'm starving by now! So who am I to deprive myself?!

I can't normally stomach breakfast lol!

I am 21 weeks. Starting to feel like a humongous whale now. Had 6 turkey drummers yesterday with mash and baked beans. Had 5 turkey drummers today and mash and beans and feel disgusted with myself. Am going to definitely stop now. Feel like my stomach is about to explode My partner said "maybe you ought to lay off the turkey drummers before you turn drumstick shaped"

Also was doing the Internet supermarket shopping a couple of days ago when I struck up a conversation with partner about breakfast cereals - then got a massive craving - forgot about it. Only to have it delivered last night and now have a kitchen bursting with:
Cocoa pops
Wheetos
Weatibix
Crunchy nut clusters - oh lord they are good!
Ready Brek
Cheerios
Cornflakes

Anything for partner? erm... no. soz.

I've eaten anything I like - I'm 28+5....

Runny cheese (with rind!), rare steak, raw eggs... you name it. I have cut right down on alcohol, but have drunk a bit, and no fags.

Some evenings I can't be arsed to make anything, so I just have a giant bag of peanut M&Ms in front of the telly

Cakebump, you are my hero and I love the username! Think you might be my undiscovered twin! Most of the claims about what you shouldn't be eating are based on old research or 1 reported case years ago where an 80 year old man contracted the bug or whatever. I too have eaten pretty much everything on the list of contraband. Bit gutted I haven't managed to find me any shark so far . I never was one for being told what I couldn't do so the list of banned foods was like a red rag to a bull . There are also plenty of studies showing that moderate alcohol intake is fine while pregnant and won't harm the baby. Well done on the no fags though, that IS one that is strongly based in scientific fact and must be hard if you were a regular smoker before.

(dons body armour and awaits flaming for airing controversial opinion)

Oh, and yesterday - one large slice butterscotch cake with yummy icing, 1 flapjack, the rest of the tub of Caramel Chew Chew and far too much pasta for dinner. Hope this baby is born soon and my appetite returns to normal, or at least I don't have the pregnancy excuse anymore so have to be more sensible!

I had to eat biscuits at 5am this morning as I felt naseous with hunger
I could then go back to sleep for 2 hours
Shish

I resent the bottle of non alcoholic wine in my fridge for its lack of alcohol.

But I will drink it and pretend its making me tipsy.

yompingjo and cakebump I totally agree - I have eaten whatever I like bar pate and raw meat - but that's mostly because I havent fancied it. I have also had the odd glass of vino. Some of the stuff I found out about way too late - like peanut butter?! Im not supposed to have that?!! and I had runny egg in the form of french toast mmmm.....

Peanut butter is fine. There used to be advice to avoid them because it might cause peanut allergy in the baby, esp if there was a family history of allergies. I think they had no idea what was causing peanut allergies so issued the advice just in case but it has turned out that there's no link.

Good cos I just skip the bread bit and spoon it right outta the jar! If eaten with chocolate - or nutella! - its like an instant snickers bar....

Applause to wannabe for eating bread and butter pudding with your hands in the car

Still eating Frazzles round the clock now, but have expanded my repertoire to include Wotsits also. If I do ever eat a 'normal' meal, it's pretty much always with a side order of Frazzles......

i bought peanut butter and pickled onions.... to eat seperatly... and the girl thought it was a craving i was having.. so i thought well why not try it? for the record pickled onions and peanut butter dont work together.

ooohhh pickled onions! why are there none in my house? Might have to finish the tin of anchovies left over from tonights dinner instead.... Am loving this thread, suspect my baby is made largely from bacon sandwiches.

Wotsits seem to be quite common. In my early vomity weeks they were all I could face eating.

A whole large carton of apple juice and a large dairy milk and white bubbly is a recipe for nausea btw.

I picked up a moussaka for 2 for dinner this evening from waitrose knowing full well that DP was going to away for work tonight. The moussaka is no more.

(also another person here eating all types of cheese, rare steak, runny eggs, drinking coffee and having the odd glass of wine)

Yes had a wotsits night around 23 wks. Bought a pack from one corner shop and went home to eat. Didn't get the cheesey hit I was after and so went to the other corner shop to buy those bobbys cheesey wotsits type things (about 5x the amount of fat, calories plus msg) and picked up a large bar of cadburies for good measure. Went home and watched food hospital or something similar to scoff the lot.

And I bemoan my boot zip breaking cankles? (luckily now fixed )

I spent £17 on sweets in whsmith yesterday. £17!!!!!! I'm still feeling sick

Ate 6 buttery crumpets for breakfast this morning (well around 11am) and have just also had 3 white bread, cheese, salad and mayo sandwiches, finished off with some choc orange segsations.

Feel sick and full now but bored, so been hunting around cupboards for other stuff to consume - am due tomorrow so may have to be the tinned pineapple!

Second breakfast anyone? I'll stick the bacon on...
