    What Dreams May Come?

    Perusing another thread I came across some quirky dreams folks have had while taking the Atkins pleasure cruise. I thought it might be fun for us to share the dreams we had "that make ya go 'hmmm'." I'll start:

    Last night I dreamed that I met Gman in person while attending a Catholic mass. He was a priest walking up and down the aisle using an aspergillum (holy water sprinkler doo-dad) to shower parishioners with blue cheese dressing.

    Last week I dreamed I had melted overnight and woke up laying in a puddle of my own fat. I wasn't sure if I should be glad to have lost fat or upset that now my sheets were ruined.


    Who's next?

    Wow...just...wow. *kidding*

    The weirdest dreams I've had involve freaking out because I dreamed that I cheated on the diet and ate something without really thinking (like arbitrarily eating potato chips).

    I did once have a really weird dream about swimming through a lake of cheese on my way to get our boat, which was made of bugles (the little corn triangle thingies).

      I frequently cheat in my dreams, but nothing weird....I think! I just eat stuff I'm not supposed to, but it's a real skinny me when I'm doing it

        Oh yeah. Quirky doesn't even begin to cover the hamster wheel I've got going upstairs.

          I've read that as we sleep our subconscious continues to work on things. I am definately pro-blue cheese, but think it's an individual's right to choose their dressing, carbs consciously lol.
          I have not had Atkins-related dreams that I know of,,,,let's see....

            No, not even a Splenda-based sugar plum dancing through my head. Maybe my *brain* actually sleeps when I sleep. They say 2% of your body weight are brains, so maybe those were the first few pounds to go(?).

                Uh oh... you may be onto something. The brain IS composed of about 67% fat after all. CRAP!

                    The answer is: periwinkle.

                        this explains why I can never find anything anymore...and my daughter will claim Atkins effects by proxy as to why she seems to be forgetting everything at school.

                        I have dreams all the time about Atkins but mostly food logging related and that's a holdover from my OCD days I think. Obsessing over tenths of a carb and measuring lettuce. Yeah, my dreams are HOT, baby!!
