McDonald's french fries with ketchup. We have leftovers I was planning on heating tonight but I may just get the kid a happy meal so I can get a large fry.
Cake with lots of frosting. It's been my only craving this entire pregnancy!
I want a piece of cake BAD. Like, a piece the size of my head. White with choc frosting. But I think that's the GD talking because this craving is new since my diagnosis. I want what I can't have.
Fruit (watermelon and cantaloupe specifically) have been my craving this whole pregnancy. Oh, and hot dogs. I don't even like hot dogs that much in regular life. But lately, mmmm!

28 weeks here and I'm not craving anything anymore really. I don't know if that is strange or not. I kind of miss my cravings lol. It was kind of fun seeing what I would want next.

Can you eat watermelon and cataloupe with GD? One of the girls I work with is diabetic and I know she can't have them, so I didn't know if you could with GD.

I'm learning that it varies from person to person on what your blood sugars can handle. I have to really portion control them, which does suck, but I can still eat them. One slice (like, a wedge shape) from the cantaloupe is 1 "carb choice", and most meals and snacks I only get 2-3 carb choices. So, I can't eat a giant bowl at one time. It may be that your coworker can't eat any at all. Sad!
It is annoying though because its fruit! I should be able to eat as much fruit as I want! Bah humbug.
A big baked sweet potato and rolls with cinnamon butter from Texas Roadhouse. I had it last week and I've been wanting it everyday since. I made my own sweet potato last night, but it's just not the same.
Donuts. Friday is national donut day which means cheap donuts (like 3/$1 cheap). I've been limiting myself to 1 a week though. Also pb&j sandwiches. I eat at least 2 a day.
Water. A lot of water. And I was craving a giant chocolate chip cookie from a local place here...but I fixed that craving, no sweat.
Usually I don't have cravings. But when I do, they unfortunately involve sweets, it seems. SO not typical of me; I am a savory girl through and through when not pg.
Someone here mentioned donuts...and I expect I will want one of those now too!
I've been such a sweets a holic. Namely cereal (Cinnamon Toast Crunch or Peanut Butter Crunch!) and gummy bears. OMG the gummy bears.
A friend made S'mores on the Go using cereal and it was delicious. It's just Golden Grahams, mini marshmallows, and chocolate chips mixed together. Perfect for a sweets/cereal craving!
Tacos, spicy quseo sauce, spanish rice..anything mexican lol. I'm constantly harassing my sister's bf to cook for me because he makes the best mexican food. I didn't really like any of it before pregnancy.
Also, these things called Pizza skins, its pizza crust, mashed potato filling, and cheese and bacon bits on top. Soooo good.
And a Panera turkey sandwich with mayo and mustard...hubby says I'm not allowed to have any deli meat til I pop this kid out..its been my craving since day one.

I don't know that I've had cravings per se, but most of the food I feel like eating is cold - cereal, fruit, greek yogurt. I had a couple pieces of watermelon yesterday that seriously tasted like the best watermelon I've ever eaten.
Also, normally I'm a total sweets person, but over the past 2 weeks anything that's too sweet makes me feel nauseous. Which I'm really bummed about because I was drinking strawberry milk to up my protein intake but now it makes me ill!
