    My Nightmares... Do Ya'll Have Them Too?

    It seems like every night I have these wicked night terrors that I'm binging on sweets and non legal foods. ( I won't list them cause I dont want you all to get hungry for them). I wake up all sweaty and my heart is racing like I just ran two miles on the track. Who would have thought you could get a workout in your sleep!

    No, not on a normal night, I have taken melatonin in the past to help me sleep and that has given me wicked nightmares, in them i almost know it's a dream and i try desparately to wake up. terrible feeling. i don't take it anymore...

    i'd say that's your brain working overtime, you're probably thinking alot about eating habits etc durning the day, and usually stresses of the day carry into dreams.

      oh that is so true. If it wasn't for this herbal, vegetarian, tea I take at night that helps me sleep I'd be up all night with my mind racing. Some times it doesn't like to shut off.

        Nope. I usually have totally silly or smutty dreams.

          Well they weren't nightmares, but I've had a few dreams where I was eating stuff like french fries or candy and wake up mad at myself because I actually thought it happend!! And then I realize it was just a dream and chuckle to myself.

                Exact same thing happened to me. Several times, though not since induction. I'd feel so guilty and awful, and then wake up and realize I was in the clear. How silly!

                  Me too!! How strange!! I feel so bad then I realise it didnt actually happen and it was a dream!! Well....at least there is somewhere that we can eat as much carb laden food as we like and not gain a pound!!!

                    Yes, I still have them sometimes.

                    I had one the other night that I was at a wedding and I ate the whole cake and felt really bad about it because I ruined my low carb plan

                    So glad it was only a dream

                            I usually have pretty crazy dreams. The worst are the ones that deal with end of the world which I think has something to do with a fairly religious upbringing. And since my parents past away I've dreamt a lot about death and the undead. Like zombies coming for me and stuff.
