The cravings have hit full force...

Ed let me sleep in until 10am! It felt soooooooo good. It just doesn't get better than that folks! I woke up for the first time in this pregnancy famished. I quickly got ready for church (Ed already had the kids ready- Thank God!) and ran downstairs to eat. Then we were off!

I was fine until halfway through the service. I started getting jittery and had that "empty" feeling. Left the protein out of breakfast. I guess an Alternative Bagel with 1 pt WW's cream cheese just didn't cut it. By the time we got home I was feeling ill. I devoured 2 pieces of a thin crust veggie pizza and still felt absolutely famished. So I had a bowl of Special K with skim milk. Okay....that hit the spot. 18 pts put away like a pro!

I'm just getting started....



After my lunch digested, I was jonesin' again. I had experienced some icky morning sickness, but felt like I needed to eat. I craved a milk shake. I NEVER crave milk shakes! I blended a banana and some chocolate frozen yogurt and it was the best thing evah! Another 4 pts....

Then came the PB&J's......This, my friends, is where I went ape shit. I had taken a nap and woke up hungry. I couldn't stomach cooking anything or eating any meat or veggies. I went straight for the peanut butter. Made one sandwich. Ate it. Made another sandwich. Ate it. Made ANOTHER half sandwich. Ate it. Granted, I did share some of that with Amelia, but still... I was like a crack addict wanting more and more...

Needless to say, I'm glad today is over. I feel yucky and my belly is even more so poking out. I don't plan to repeat the PB&J incident, but I think I'll keep the milkshake. It was darn good for 4 pts. And I get a banana in there! That's justified, right?

Oy!
