Weird cravings?

Hey! So I'm almost a week in, and I'm starting to have weird cravings. At the moment, I'm dreaming of chicken liver pate. Weird, because I've only tried pate a handful of times in my life, and while I enjoyed it, never felt a true need to consume it at any time.

Currently searching the internet for Whole 30 friendly pate recipes (I miss you, bacon).

Anyone else having weird cravings at this point?

    You can have bacon! It is just hard to find one that is made without sugar.

    Since I have to be gluten free and dairy free (except ghee) all the time, my regular eating habits aren't too drastically different from paleo, though this is WAY more meat than I usually eat. So my weird craving is WATER! I'm thirsty all the time. I don't cook with salt. Whenever I consume lots of meat, I find myself regularly parched, despite drinking even more than my usual generous volumes of H2O.

    I do remember when I had to give up gluten cold turkey -- I do NOT envy any of you going through those cravings! That was INTENSE! I just kept telling myself my health is more important than a piece of bread/biscuit/bowl of oatmeal, etc.

    Yep. I usually eat a ton of almonds and have had to actually sit down and plan alternatives. I am definitely eating more veggies, so YAY!!

    I just find it so weird. I have no cravings for muffins, cereal, cookies, dare I say, even chocolate. I don't know who I am anymore!

    Maybe my new TOM cravings is organ meats...

    I'm officially turning into a cavewoman I guess.
