Food craving :/

Have you been dieting lately? Reason why I ask is that while dieting at times people deprive way too many things that it comes to a point that they want all the wrong foods at once. I would reccomend that you go ahead and eat what you are craving only do so in small portions. This way you are satisfying the cravings and not over eating too many of them. I get like that sometimes but then I remember how I exercise daily and eat healthy that I tell myself, do not want to ruin it after all the work. I will eat certain craved foods but do so in moderation. Remember that the food will always be there, that is if you are dieting and once you reach your goal then you can splurge a bit here and there. Good luck because some foods can be so tastey.

The first thing that came to my mind was whether you were expecting a baby and that you have said no to some response here. I found something interesting for you which you will find useful. Do visit this link: http://diet.lovetoknow.com/wiki/Meaning_of_Food_Cravings

substitute the cravings with something healthy like fruit or water.

I don't know how to stop cravings. As long as you are not eating so much that you are not feeling well, I don't think that you need to stop the cravings. Maybe next time that you have a craving for a food that is not too healthy you can eat something healthy along with it so that you can satisfy your craving without it being too bad for your health. Like next time you want to eat fried chicken, you can eat some green vegetables along with it. I've been wanting to eat a lot of junk food recently too. Maybe it's the nice warm weather affecting our stomachs.

Are you expecting.

Pizza? did i hear it right? You shouldn't have mentioned that word. Now i'm drooling. Just like you I indulge in food and now my hips are expanding from west to east my belly fat seems to following the law of gravity... the fats are going southbound that fast. Pizza is one of my favorite food stuff. They say, to stop our craving for foods, we should drink glasses of water before meal time. probably to wash any taste on our palate that sends data to our brain. try it and share with us if this really works.

It's normal to crave for food! I could be craving even just after dinner. The only observation I have is because the meal was not satisfying. It is satisfying to me only if I had something solid to bite and chew. At times, it is because I have deprived myself of the food for too long and hence felt the urge to have it! So my recommendation to you is - Eat moderately and you will not crave for it. Afterall, forbidden fruits taste sweetest! LOL.

I used to get food craving, mostly junk foods and became quite ill because of it. I saw a nutritionist and was told that my main problem was sugar. Sugar is highly addictive and used not only in sweet-tasting foods but also in a lot of other preparations. I was advised that the only way to feel better was to discover sugar that was hidden in foods by reading the labels. This turned out to be true, even foods like pizza etc. had sugar in them when I read the labels. The food that you could buy in ready-cooked, fast food outlets didn't have labels, so I was advised that there was more than likely sugar-based food enhancers to make the taste addictive. So I avoided everything and slowly got better. My craving got worse at first and I felt quite bad for a while as I went through withdrawel symptoms, but now that is all fixed and I don't crave for any food now and feel 100% better.. _Derek

I am no way pregnaat but I have my cravings! I have been craving hamburgers lately! Luckily at work,on tuesaday they had them for lunch! That helped satisfy my craving! I will crave something munchy once in awhile. Usaually I get some Sun Chips to satisfy that craving! I think all people have cravings once in awhile! I think it is normal!

You are either expecting or your stomach have produce extra acid that make you craving for foods. So, do eat more to reduce the acid or go for a pregnancy test.

hehehehe it happens to me to sometimes, well to most of us. but i think it's just because of some hormonal changes that happens to us every month

I know what ya mean, Lately I have been craving sweets especially Cannolies, which is an Italian desert. The only problem is I will have them all the time and eventually just get sick of them. I don't think its odd or anything to have cravings for certain foods at times either.

hello, Well, maybe that is natural all people crave for something. But when all the time ha ha that is funny! Well, the only solution to it is make yourself busy by that you wont remember that you are craving for something. good luck

Are you pregnant? Just kidding :) Well, I will support you on your cravings, it's not always that we have food cravings. Go on and satisfy yourself, eat what you want and it will make you happy. If you don't get to eat your cravings then you will just suffer thinking about it and regret not eating it.

OMG! You should have stop yourself from craving too much. Eating is not bad, we need that in fact. But you should know how to control yourself from eating too much. You should consult a food consultant i guess or a nutritionist so you would know what is the right thing to do about it. It's a psychological thing, i just can't explain it well but a professional can. Hope i could help. Good Luck to you, thatgirl!

OMG. I'm also having problems with my cravings. I can't control myself. I always crave for something. Lately, my mom has been bringing home a bread with cream and cheese everyday. It's so sweet and tasty! I just can't stop myself from eating it everyday. I feel like I'm getting fat.

Eat something that'll make you feel full. :)

I get in moods for certain foods once in awhile. I can relate. Although, I have to watch what I eat, and all that greasy fried food is no good. Maybe you are pregnant. Get a test because I remember when my ex was pregnant, she was craving food all the time.

Probably your mind is just thinking of all these food right now. It's okay to crave for food. But just don't overeat whatever it is that you are craving for. Try taking up some activity to get your mind off the food you are craving for. Maybe it will help.

upon reading your discussion, i can't stop but to crave for those foods you mentioned as well.. LOL i think that to stop your cravings, do something that can divert your attention.. don't think of food too much.. if that still does not work, then sometimes you just have to give in to those cravings.. just eat small servings.. :)
