Dreaming of Food??

[manita]

I kept dreaming all night about donuts and carbs. I would see them and grab them and eat them! I knew in my dream I was on a diet, yet I would almost attack the sweets!!! So this morning I wake up and I feel the sickest I have felt. I think I am on day 5? So I hurry and had something to eat and now I feel more stable, I am downing the water and I am feeling better now!!

Have you ever had dreams of food???

Manita, I weigh less in the afternoon than I do in the morning. My husband says it is because I eat all night long in my dreams. Last night I drempt that I was eating a cheese steak and chocolate cake. I have been on atkins for two years now and I still dream of eating everything I am not supposed to. Have a good day. Dawn

It's a withdrawal thing I think. If you are like me, I take longer to get in Ketosis, so you may still be withdrawing. It should make you feel good in the morning to wake up and realize you didn't cheat!! Good Luck!

I've had food dreams, too! I think it's our blood sugars trying to tempt us with our favorite 'drugs' when we're most susceptible to the subconscious musings of a piece of pizza.

I think you are right, write, rite, Oh my I am out of my mind today!! No conditioner on my face today though. (did I tell you that story) We should have an induction thread about silly things we have done while on induction.

I am ok today, I havent' cheated all day. We even went to see "Charlie and the C-h-o-c-o-l-a-t-e Factory" Then my husband comes back from the store with a candy bar with all the kids.(evel just evil if you ask me) I almost fainted from the smell of it! Trying to keep my humor about it all....

This is my first message so forgive me if it turns up in some other field, lol. I used to dream of carb-based food. I used to eat lots and I never wanted to, I just didn't have a choice. The dreams were very vivid and frequent. I would always wake up and say 'oh thank goodness it was just a dream', lol. But since in ketosis I don't have them anymore. Scary things! lol.
