Anyone else dream about food?

[Jeanette]

Last night I had one of those forbidden food dreams. Is there anything else so wonderful and so devestating at the same time?

Last night was a sumptuous junk food feast. I had to run to the kitchen for an extra butter laden egg and sausage breakfast. Seems to have done the trick to calm my body down, but my mind...

Anyone else have these occassional "nightmares".

YES!!!! They're awesome!!!! See, I had a lot of trouble with a cigarette addiction but found that after two days of stopping, if I started dreaming about smoking, I would be okay. I would wake up no longer craving a tar-stick.

So when I started Atkins the first time and dreamed about food, I had the same feeling - like I had fulfilled my craving and I was over the addiction. Sometimes I feel really guilty in the dream, too, and it's such a relief to wake up and realize I hadn't cracked after all! I had a junk food dream two days after starting back on Atkins this time.

Yes, I have strange dreams every time I restart the diet. My doctor told me I may be having some hypoglycemia. I often dream of bread.

Yes, I dreamt of a big donut & a chocolate bar chasing me around my kitchen - NO JOKE!
