OK so... I have healthy anxiety as u all know.. I never eat unhealthy hardly.. Well today I had onion rings and a big crispy chicken sandwich from burger king.. Since I've eaten it, my heart is beating fast.. Not super fast, but fast.. Is this normal? Its wayyyyy greasier, way unhealthier, and way larger than I normally eat.. When will my body calm down? I haven't given into a craving like this in 8 months, and judging by how heavy and sluggish I feel, I won't ever again lol

    You probably have anxiety caus you feel upset for eating what you ate. Hey have to enjoy life,eating healthy is great but none of us know how many tomorows we have so every now and then or even every day a person should enjoy. Your system probably isnt used to that kind of food so probably just upsetting your system.Xx

    Give it a bit to run through your system. Very high in salt and preservatives. Drink lots of water for the next day or two. It will all pass thru u. Burger king would be so sad from the post haha. Everyone has a moment they give into a craving.

      I love Wendy's and they don't have it in Australia! Always my first stop on the way from airport when I go back to NZ😊

      Wendys is amazing. But my issue with them is I've convinced myself that since their fries have sea salt, they're completely healthy.. Like in my mind I can eat a large fry and consider it as healthy as a salad.. My fiance has banned me from there haha

    This must be a reaction to the food. I think it'll take about twelve hours from when you ate it before you feel better.  love Tess

      Thank you.. Apparently I had a craving but the baby decided it didn't want that food, so I woke up this morning completely sick to my stomach and feeling horrible until about 11am. Had to get more onion rings tho, apparently that'll be my pregnancy craving sad

      OK now I'm nervous again. I was laying down after a greasy fish sandwich because apparently I didn't learn my lesson. Anyways I got a sharp pain in my shoulder, it got worse when I inhaled. Then it just stopped within a few breaths. Is that normal? Now I'm terrified of a heart attack again

      I just ate some pizza and I also have anxiety. Eating greasy and fast food just doesn't do it for me. It makes me feel tense and I start getting some pains. It's my anxiety that makes me think and feel. You are fine smile

      Dont feed yourself that junk anymore, craving or not. Its high in salt, useless in nutrition and fattening especially while pregnant. Might as well get a jump start on mommy hood and tell the baby no to fast/junk food.

      Oh My Days!!

      Stop worrying about heart attacks already!!

      Honey as a midwife and mother of four, I can tell you that you'll feel sick a lot during pregnancy, at any time of the day and at any point in the pregnancy. \How many weeks are you? About 8 - 9? You have a long way to go, darling. Eventually I forecast you starting threads about dying in labour. Which you won't.  You have a perfect opportunity to eat healthily now, so stop eating junk food. Or carry on, throw up and feel sick all day, and produce a massive baby with inherited health problems!
