I find that the longer I go at watching what I eat, I crave more and more nutritious foods. Like, instead of craving ice cream yesterday, I was craving peanut butter and apples. It felt like a small victory to me! I'm curious to know what kinds of healthy foods you guys are craving on this journey to health and happiness :)

    Just donuts. I don't like to label things healthy or unhealthy, because everything is unhealthy in abundance.
    Preferably chocolate glazed donuts, they're pretty nice.

    I personally feel like refined sugars are unhealthy lol but do I still have them every once and a while? Of course! I guess that's because I do agree that (most) things are unhealthy in abundance!

    those little sweet clementines - yum! Oh and cheese ... a nice smoked gouda or sharp cheddar. Never have been much of a cheese person and I don't do a lot of dairy as a rule but for some reason, now that I am at my goal weight and maintaining, it is cheese that I want - the good, expensive stuff too.

    Ahh the elusive pear, never did like them much but I'm a nanny and I make baby food for a set of twins, and they eat pears like it's nobody's business! Recently, I mixed them with carrots and made "Pearot" baby food lol and I tried it...it was actually good!!

    I was actually just telling my boyfriend this the other night, I was going into intense details on how sweet I like them, my favorite type and how I prefer the crisp ones...I must have been going on for some time because when I was done he was like...geez I didn't know how much you liked apples lmao!

    Me and blueberries...we have a love hate relationship. LOVE them cooked in muffins, pancakes, sauces, etc but absolutely despise them raw! It's weird lol. I can totally get down with green peppers, though!
