Bizarre Cravings

[lannerjarv]

So, since I have been on this WOL for quite a while now, I have noticed that I don't get cravings for junk nearly as often or as bad.

Today however (just a few minutes ago) I had the most bizarre craving for something I rarely ate even when i chucked back anything i wanted.

A ice cream drumstick.

I can quite literally smell it. lol

what weird cravings do you have on this WOL?

Re: Bizarre Cravings

Honest, I used to get the jones for a diet coke. Had one yesterday, tasted sticky sweet!

I really stopped having cravings for junk. But almost any day of the week I get my salavary glands all excited over the possibility of a grilled steak, a little on the rare side!

One of my all time favorites has been popcorn, I was where a I could have grabbed a handfull last night and it didn't even sound good.

Love it! My new junk treats... A strip of crispy FAT off of a roast, or bacon still dripping with it's own melted fat... better yet, while buttering my cauliflower the other night, there was a pat of butter left on the paper...so I ate it!

Say goodnight forbey...

Goodnight forbey!

EWWWW :P that sounds yucky.

i did however make Parmesan chicken the other night, and there was Parmesan cheese that had deep fried itself in the pan that i secretly dug out and ate gleefully in the kitchen by myself. lol

my husband was like "are you eating that crunchy cheese?!"
maybe. lol

Re: Bizarre Cravings

they are a once in a while treat though as the husband will eat a jar in a sitting.

Steak. I have been craving steak. Today I went out and had a nice Ribeye. I am not a sweet eater I am a starchy carb eater and potatoes were my weakness. I wasn't even tempted to order one today.

Ok ... this is going to sound bizarre, but TRUST ME ... these are Delicious!!

1) Take your baby dills and wrap each one of them with a strip of bacon.
2) 'Pin' them closed with a toothpick.
3) BBQ till bacon is done.

I can't stand pickles ... these taste like a really good grade Pastrami!!

Try 'em!!

Re: Bizarre Cravings

Real, homemade tapioca pudding haunts me occasionally to the point that I can almost taste those little opaque dots. I have to say that I make a lot of Atkins-friendly custards...my latest fav is a revised version of Linda Sue's "Rice Pudding"...no dots but it does have little bumpy things.

Re: Bizarre Cravings

I usually crave whatever I have to eat at the moment. Guess I'm kinda simple :/

Actually, now that I think about it...I've gone from being a total craver to not craving nothing @ all!!! Wow. I didn't realize it until now but this WOE *does* get rid of cravings!

(hijack: I did have a dream last night that I had a bunch of cookies, and then started craving bad food and ice cream! I actually woke up in fear!! lol- goes without saying i *really* want to succeed on this WOE!)

Re: Bizarre Cravings

The reason for the cravings is the space between having carbs to no carbs when the internal organs have to convert protein/fat into sugar, but before the body does that it will crave anything sweet Try mixing nonfat yogurt with 1 packet of equal it worked for me...
