This is for all those who have insatiable appetites!

Thought it might be fun to see what we are eating each day (and be honest).

This is not a hunt for the biggest pig - HONEST!!!

OK, I'll start:

Breakfast - 1 slice left over pizza, 2 slices toast & jam

Snacks - Tea and about 6(ish) Rich Tea biscuits, C&O Crisps

Lunch (about 4pm) - 2 x cheese & cucumber sarnies, S&V crisps, Lemon mousse

Dinner - TBA

I am nearly 30wks preg though so this is a good excuse, plus I really am just constantly hungry.

Can't believe you ate pizza for breakfast though, that is hardcore

RGPargy · 27/05/2007 20:45

Pizza for breakfast is a must if you've not managed to stuff it all the night before. Same goes for chinese takeaway too! However, i draw the line at curry for breakfast. Bleugh!

OH GOD you lot are SO lucky.....weight watchers is RUBBISH!

I DID tell them that i had just had a baby....then they asked when, i had to be honest, told them 4 years ago.

They laughed then sniggered when i got on the scales.

Be very careful ladies...you to will be where i am if you carry on

RGPargy · 27/05/2007 20:50

Dont worry dissle, i lost 17lbs before i got pg so i am allowing myself to put that back on. When it gets remotely close, i will kick the junk for fruit etc and try and get back to reducing my carbs.

lulumamasmentee · 27/05/2007 20:53

RGPargy · 27/05/2007 21:33

PregnantGrrrl · 28/05/2007 09:20

I ate lots yesterday, including:

2 packets of MonsterMunch
Half a big bar Whole Nut
Big bowl of Fruit and Fibre
Toasted bagel with Flora, marmite and 3 scrambled eggs
Chickpeas and veg with brown rice
Far too much coffee
No water
No milk

Well ashamed! Lots of water and herbal tea today, aswell as fruit and brown rice (loving brown rice ATM, cooking some for breakfast as we speak!)

RGPargy · 28/05/2007 13:25

About a litre of squash.
Going to make chicken paella for dinner, but am now thinking of crumpets (thanks Lulamana .
Yesterday I scoffed three Muller Amore yoghurts yummy but very high cal!
I was fat before and getting fatter still and I'm only 10 weeks .
BTW cannot believ the things people say to pg women, do they think being pg means you become very thick skinned [angy]

So far today i have had:

Left over chicken tikka massala in 2 slices of bread

2 cups of tea
1,000 Rich Tea biscuits (ok, no quite, but a fair few lol)

I had the longest breakfast ever, and because I was catching ferries and busses all morning I know when I had everything.

4:30 AM, bowl of cereal
6 AM cup of tea
7 AM bagel
8 AM, more tea
9:45 AM, that Chinese porridge stuff, made with rice, that I can't remember the name of. It had pork and pickled duck eggs (kind of nasty) in it.
10:15 AM big thing of orange juice.
10:30 AM, cup of chai.

I wonder if I'm overdoing it on the tea, but I kind of decided not to worry about it. I think I'll try for a 3-stage lunch, with vegetables which I've missed so far today.

PregnantGrrrl · 28/05/2007 19:57

much healthier today

Spicy chick peas and brown rice for breakfast (odd, i know!)
Strawberry yogurt
Vegetable burger and handful of chips
4 raisin pancakes
Some cheddar and cherry tomatoes
About to have some granary bread, breaded pollack and more tomatoes.

No coffee, 3 cups tea, 2 cups herbal tea, a diet coke and a pint of skimmed milk.

RGPargy · 28/05/2007 20:10

Add on top of what i already had today:

1 glass of rose wine
1 bag frazzles
1/2 portion chips
1/2 bag onion rings

Tonight we are having Pizza (again!!).

We have shockingly had THREE takeaways this weekend so far and tonight will be our FOURTH!!!

Yes, we are fat pigs but we will keep it under control (we've had a boring weekend lol) and i'll just have to make sure my DP doesn't come out in sympathy on the tummy front!

lulumamasmentee · 28/05/2007 20:43

miniegg · 28/05/2007 21:28

Yes, I did have my chicken paella, but I also had two hours before hand
4 potato waffles drowned in vinegar
2 slices of toast with marg and jam
Cup of hot chocolate
Shared a Twirl with DH anfter dinner
And we finished off the Carte D'or Strawberry & yoghurt icecream (which was lush!)

In my lunch bag, I have a pasta snack thing (tomato & herb), 4 plums and some dried fruit.
Not sure what we're having for tea.

PregnantGrrrl · 01/06/2007 13:41
