Hi Ladies,

What do you do?

Thanks

Hi CC, sometimes I eat jello or applessauce in moderation of course. I know they are not as sweet but it satisfies me. I also got a protein shake recipe from one of Phenomena's posts. It is soooo good If you want it pm me

There is also a thread out there for oatmeal ideas and somone posted a recipe that they freeze and says that the oatmeal is sooo good that way I will try to find it for you

If I am dieting..I eat jello or some natural peanutbutter and lots of water...if I am not dieting I will eat some Natural peanutubutter w/ oatmeal or w/ some Ultra Size by beverly International...Choc flav is good! I usually crave less if I have a good amount of fats in my diet...make sure you are getting flax oil, olive oil etc. The jello usually will do the trick

I send my husband to the superstore at 10pm!!
I have those cravings too. My body needs more carbs during that time. If I wouldn't give my body some carbs, I'd be sitting on my couch watching tv rather than pumping iron at the gym. That is the only time that I'm listening to my body craving though..

What I eat when my body has those needs?? I would never let myself eat a bag of chips or a chocolat bar, I eat clean-bad things like SnackWell's potato thins or pop corn (without butter)

I am the queen of PMS cravings! I tend to crave salty foods during that time and occasionally i'll get the sweet craving. It is so hard not to give into these cravings, especially when you are in a crappy mood to begin with and just want to say f*** it! I try my damndest to not give into the cravings...and during that time it always seems my husband likes to go to the grocery store and buy junk food like chips and cookies and likes to eat that crap in front of me when i am craving it the most! I just want to rip his head off!
