    Yup, she's sticking her tongue out at everyone! :)

    my cravings are always sweets!!!!! I have found some ways to keep me satiated so I don't binge namely keeping some lower sugar and calorie snacks on hand so I can have them after dinner dessert will always be my favorite thing in the world

    Definitely rice, can't believe how much I used to eat... And bacon.., although I happily fit that not my diary a couple of times a week. I've found baffling though that before MFP I never ate Peanut Butter but now I crave it a couple of times a week :) and can't believe how much I love it now.

    MY cravings are either for Sushi, or Cupcakes with lots of frosting. I get sushi from time to time still, and I found if I eat a tsp or so of frosting it curbs my feining for a huge gormet cupcake.

    Nothing that I can think of really, because I can usually come up with a version of anything that fits into my macros.

    I second the Trader Joe's pizzas, though. Come to think of it, I need to go by there today. :laugh:

    Foods I miss
    Mayo with corn and white cheese, butter, lime juice, valentina hot sauce, its basically corn on the cob but it is so good, where I live street vendors sell them in a cup or on the cob.

    Also, I had to say no more Tamales,

    And no more of my moms Spicy Red Beans with all the butter.

    Nothing. I eat what I like.



    Sadly however it's not always as much as I'd like.

    nothing, but i used to not like bacon and now i want some.

    Why not turkey bacon?


    MIne is Salted Caramel ice cream and Pizza...there is NO low calorie pizza out there :(


    homemade pizza is better any day and you control how much cals are in it :flowerforyou:

    If the cravings get too bad I will actually eat some - but not too often.

    Salted potato crisps
    Pizza
    Baked cheesecake

    Mountain Dew. Sort of. I tried one today after not drinking any of it for about a week or so, and it tasted horrible. Anything else I'll allow in moderation.

    I don't diet so I eat what I want, I just don't eat a crap ton of it. Cravings haven't changed over the years. Sweet stuff for sure.

    to be honest I think anything can be fitted into your cals. so if I want something I have it. sometimes I might want chocolate so I eat chocolate.

    that applies to everything.

    no need to punish yourself.

    Fresh bread rolls from the bakery with loads of butter,I can smell and taste them now lol
  • I make room in my allowance for most foods I fancy, even if it does mean the rest of the day being a little lean.

    I thought I would miss chocolate as I'm a regular chocaholic but I dont fancy it at all :indifferent:

    But occasionally I get a really big craving for doughnuts, I never even ate that many pre-healthy diet.

    Strange :huh:

    I agree however i've craved pie and chips all week and finally gave in yesterday, it didn't take me over my calorie limit but my fat intake was way over lol:ohwell:

    Decent cottage cheese, specifically A&E Dairies 2% milk fat small curd (only in the States), and beef jerky. Damn sodium restriction!

    ETA: What I really miss is being able to eat something without the guilt. If I'm hungry for toast with PB, I have to see if it will fit in my day instead of just eating and enjoying. My MIL believes I don't eat desserts anymore because what she offers I can't fit in my daily allowance. Had I known she'd offer cheesecake or whatever, I'd work to make it fit, but it's always a last minute thing and I get pissed at knowing I can't have it.

    I miss pasta. I just feel icky when I eat it, so I don't. (I'm prediabetic, and I just can't "overcarb") I can have some as a side dish...but I can't have a big ol' spaghetti dinner without paying for it later.

    Other than that, I eat what I want. The other day, one of my co-workers brought in 2 bags of really good chocolate, and I worked it into my macros. We had a class pizza lunch, and I worked it in. etc.

    If I want something I tend to eat it, I just make it fit.

    Pizza, tacos, pasta. Shoving everything into a lettuce wrap just isn't the same! Lol!

    I hate to admit it but a late night bowl of Peanut Butter Crunch ( Cap'n Crunch that is) with a big mess of whole milk.....

    I LOVE that cereal!!!
