Food

[monster_munch]

It's 2:30pm and so far today I have had 28 calories
(a donone actimel drink that I made myself have just now)
I haven't even had anything else to drink.

I have a problem with eating during the day - I will then have a small meal for tea and want to pig out on sweets I would literally live on crisps and sweets all day, I just don't have an appetite for anything else. If there are none in the house, I won't eat.

EDIT: OH and I are trying to be healthy at the moment so there is nothing "bad" in the house

What's wrong with me? And could this be what is having an effect on me conceiving (although I was the same, if not worse when I fell pregnant with my daughter)

Lots of people have problems trying to have a healthy diet, have you ever seen 'Freaky Eaters' on BBC3?

I don't think you can view it online but there's a few clips etc here http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcthree/programmes/freaky_eaters/

People just don't talk about it, because it's embarassing!

Especially women, a lot of us have problems with food.

I hate veg and will eat hardly anything one day, and takeaway the next. But I try and eat a proper amount of calories a day now I'm TTC. It's very difficult, especially with not being able to exercise much either.

I really used to starve myself, but gave up smoking 3 years ago and ever since then have lusted after lardy foods

Thank goodness it's not just me!

I actually really enjoy fruit and vegetables and love eating them with my evening meal, but can't bring myself to eat anythingother than junk at any other time.
I told myself that when I became a mother I would eat well to set a good example but that went down the pan almost immediately

I did find that when I managed to conceive last, I had a real urge to eat a small bar of chocolate most days for a week or so beforehand. So maybe it helps in some way, in moderation

Usually manage to maintain my weight by WW points Can't really do my extreme version of weightwatchers while TTC, but still doing ok on the weight front due to much less calories from alcohol

I'm rubbish at eating properly. Im just having a bowl of frosties for a snack, for lunch I had marmite on toast and a bag of crisp.
