1. Deli Meat.I used to get bored with turkey sandwiches, but now it’s hard for me to have ideas for lunch without lunch “meat!”
2. Medium-Rare Steak.
Oh yeah- I like my steak juicy. If I do order or cook it now, it has to be well-done. A.K.A. “Beef Jerky.”
3. Eggs Over Easy.
I love dipping my toast in my fried eggs over-easy. Now it’s hard-boiled/hard-cooked only!
4. My love for Chocolate.
I still eat it, but I don’t like it anymore! It doesn’t taste the same to me for some reason. ?
5. Coffee. Starbucks Coffee.
Yes, I was an addict. Blame Tye for that. I didn’t realize how much I depended on that caffeine buzz! Now I wander around in the morning trying to wake up “naturally” and I’m surprised I haven’t left for work in my pajamas! Yet…
6. Sushi.
Yes, I love sushi. In fact, I had it at least once a week. I have a few friends that I scheduled regular “sushi dates” with. Now because of me, we have to meet at very boring places to eat! I miss it so much, I made vegetarian sushi last week. It took 3 hours and I made a huge mess, but it was worth it!
7. Self-tanner.
I am white now. Really white. I used to use self-tanner to get that summer glow all year round. Now I look like Casper the Ghost.
8. Late Nights.
I get dog tired at 9:00pm every night! What am I ninety? I used to be a night owl, keeping my husband up with fun conversation, and now I’m snoring wherever I am at 9:00pm.
9. Sleeping In.
I can’t sleep past 7 or 8am anymore! I had a bad habit of sleeping until late on my days off- no matter when I went to bed. Now I wake up at the crack of dawn. Maybe it’s preparation for when the baby’s here!
10. Sleeping on my stomach.
This was my comfortable position, but now a just toss and turn!
11. Strenuous Sports.
I miss climbing Pinnacle Mountain, Aerobics classes and tennis. All are a little too strenuous for someone in my condition. (preggo)
12. Pesticides.
OK, I shouldn’t ever use these, but with the giant, man-eating spiders down here, you have to have this at all times. Now I just squoosh ‘em. Yuck.
13. Caesar Dressing & Cookie Dough.
Both have raw eggs in them. Oh how I miss the good ol' days of eating the cookie dough right out of the tube! Baby, you better be worth this colossal sacrifice! ;)
Oh the tired at 9 PM and not being able to sleep in anymore - I FEEL YOUR PAIN WOMAN!
ReplyDeleteGF...just getting caught up on your blog. You can eat med Rare, have california rolls for sushi, have one coffee a day...let me see what else did you say...pesticides in the home..you should call Optimal Pest Control. You know Keith Robinson knows all about the pesticides and I will not squish unless I have to! I am trying to remember what else you are now avoiding. You don't have to get crazy and I am sure your doctor would agree! A happy preggo is a happy baby! Look at my boy! ok I wasn't a happy preggo but my son was 11.2 lbs! but I did pray protective covering over him all the time.
ReplyDeleteoh the exercising you can do if you did it before. That was the other thing. Love you guys!
ReplyDeleteman.. I remember those days!!.. With all my kids.. the 2 things I loved eating/ drinking most was Chocolate and Coffee.. as soon As I got prego.. I hated both of them..LOL..
