My "usual" foods are so unappealing to me right now! I want nothing to do with salads or whole grains or chicken. Veggies in general, ick! The only proteins I can imagine eating are peanut butter and eggs. Fresh fruit is so completely compelling! I've been "off" sugar and white flour for so long, yet that is all I want to eat right now. That and fruit. Eating healthy when you don't feel well is the pits!!

When I was pregnant with DD, I went through a couple of weeks where I was absolutely craving raw meat. It took all my will power not to eat the ground beef out of the pan when I was making dinner. I knew it was disgusting logically, but my body was not in with logic. I never ate it, but I was really horrified about the desire. DH joked that I was turning into a wherewolf.

That happened to me, too! I love chicken, peanut butter and oatmeal and could not eat any of these things for all nine months! As soon as he was born, I wanted them again, though!

Raw meat--I love it! I had a craving for red meat awhile back. DH took me (with a gift card) to this BBQ place that has these huge slabs of tri-tip. It was DELICIOUS but I was cured of my craving for red meat completely and couldn't eat the leftovers the next day!

Raw veggies are the only thing that really appeal to me...and avocados. I've eaten an avocado every day for nearly 2 weeks. I ran out today and I'm so frustrated....
