My number 1 craving right now....

... is hamburgers. It's so weird. And I have been eating them - it isn't like I am denying myself. Last night was a bacon cheeseburger for dinner. The night before, cheeseburger with fried egg (first time I tried that - so good!). Tonight is grilled chicken, but I kinda want a hamburger! (Going to have to throw some butter on that chicken - it's boneless skinless breast).

I almost feel like I could happily try out the 30 days of ground beef, except for the fact that I love to have some avocado, tomato slices, bacon, cheese, or eggs with my burger..... (And cream in my coffee - I can't drink it black :smile: ).

Anyone else with a craving you wouldn't have imagined?

(My number 2 craving is popcorn, but I don't/can't give into that one...)

    I love bunless burgers! I could eat them all the time. They are my go to when I go to a restaurant with limited low carb options.

    I love taco salad. That's the one dish I crave often. Taco meat on a bed of spinach with sour cream, cheese, and guacamole! I like salsa too but I definitely use more sour cream than salsa. Great...now I'm hungry for taco salad and it's 7AM...

    I crave ice cream most all of the time. Real ice cream. Butter Pecan, Rocky Road, Black Cherry, Mud Slide, Chocolate Mint, Marrionberry, or just plain Vanilla with salted peanuts.

    I'm a huge burger with an egg fan as well. It's so good! I crave burgers a lot. I crave anything cheesy and I'm obsessed with iced coffee with cream.

    Up until this weekend I was craving Chinese food hardcore. I was feeling sick, so I went ahead and ate whatever on Friday. The steamed dumplings were great, the General Tso's not so much. Just too much sweet gross flavorless glop. I ate it anyway because it was kind of expensive. But at least that's out of my system now, I won't be craving that again for a long while.

    Oh, coffee! That's big on my list right now. To the point where I am excited to go to bed to get up in the morning to have my coffee :blush:

    I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one obsessed with hamburgers too! (Although everyone's cravings sound pretty tasty....)

    I went out for pancakes on Mother's Day and the best thing on my plate was the butter. So much for craving sweets!

    But you are soo right. I love a good beef patty. My husband overcooks mine (he doesn't trust red in pre-ground meat). But when it's still rare and a bit salty, it is like super health food.

    I'm always up for more salt. Salty is #1 in my book!

    I'm lucky (or maybe unlucky, lol) that caffeine doesn't seem to effect me much. I can drink coffee all day and night and still go to bed! lol

    I'm the same way! I can have a big cup after 10pm and fall asleep within 5 minutes of hitting the pillow around 11:30

    My number 1 craving yesterday was a cupcake.. and I had it. Extremely sweet frosting. Got a headache immediately after :( I did so well the rest of the day too, resisted pancakes at ihop, resisted super sweet frappuchinos at starbucks, ordered the most low carb friendly item from a Chinese food place.. lost it at the cupcake shop. 2/10 would not recommend.

    There's a thread about cauliflower doughnuts though which has peaked my interests.. :) I am also craving salty things too, like chips. Maybe I am low on magnesium.

    Have you tried making your own? if you use splenda when making the custard, it should be keto friendly, as it is just eggs and cream and splenda, when the custard is cool you add some whipped cream, and if you have fruit you can add a little, but rasberries or strawberries are lower.... so ice cream should be possible? please tell me it is I have myself geared up for lots of berry icecreams.
