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 ).
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...2 -

I often crave mashed potato1

Sorry I didn't mean to be abrupt - half my message disappeared!! But the jist of it was 'oh how I love mashed potatoes'!!0

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.0

Mine has been hamburgers too this past week. We had bunless burgers and salad last night. I'm going to pick up some more ground beef on my way home tonight for another hamburger'ish meal!1

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.1

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.1

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
I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one obsessed with hamburgers too! (Although everyone's cravings sound pretty tasty....)1 -
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!1 -
I ate an entire low carb monster thick burger for lunch.....have been craving it for days. It was so delicious!!! Might not eat the rest of the day as full as I am but I don't care!!3

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

You are not alone on looking forward to your coffee!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.

I'm the same way! I can have a big cup after 10pm and fall asleep within 5 minutes of hitting the pillow around 11:302 -
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.0 -
I've been craving hideous, sugar free, licorice. No idea why. I'm blaming menopause.1

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.0 -

That looks awesome! My family would totally go for that0 -
Ooooh, @Sabine_Stroehm ... that brings back memories of when I was Parks & Facilities Concession Manager of a neighbouring town. I would order a tub of extra salty Dutch liquorice 'coins' just for me as I was the only person around that liked them. They were made with real liquorice though, not a fake flavouring. They kind of reminded me of the 99% Lindt chocolate. Same sort of 'it takes very little to satisfy' craving.1

sorry strange double post happened here... so I deleted.0

Peanut butter. I could eat it by the spoonful. I used to eat about 6 tablespoons on bread and put 1/4 cup semi sweet chocolate chips on it as a snack. No more of that but I do eat PB still and use a few Enjoy Life brand chips.
I love burgers with fried eggs. That was lunch today.
I made fruit salad for Rowdy Sunday and I really wanted some but I stuck to just one Blackberry...he raved over how good it was and I was jealous! But didn't give in.1 -

Today I have a huge craving for an egg roll. My children get the combination platters but don't eat their egg rolls. I usually eat them but since going LCHF I haven't wanted any. Today I wanted it but I didn't give in. I went for a 3.6 mile walk instead. So glad I did.3

I've been craving Chinese food too! Made some for dinner tonight. I get frozen pot stickers (dumplings) because I don't know how to make those, but make my own Szechuan wings and beef with broccoli. The sauces are a bit carby (4 tsp brown sugar in the glaze for the wings and 2 tsp table sugar in the sauce for the beef and broccoli, but the recipes make enough for the whole family, and it's worth it). I have to limit the dumplings (I could make a meal out of just those if it weren't for the carbs - three of those suckers have more carbs than the whole rest of my meal!). But it was good to get that craving out of my system! Love love love Chinese food
