Do you still have 'Food urges'?

I’ve only had cravings during pregnancy and once when I was on a particular medication. I’m very much an ‘eat to live’ person and eating is a chore at times of stress.

I might see something in a shop eg a packet of sweets, and decide I want it but I’d never randomly suddenly think ‘Oh, I want a packet of sweets right now.’

I do love salad, but I never crave it, for over a year, I craved bounty bars,bought 2 packs in my Tesco order every week, now I don't bother with them.

Not in the same way that I used to have pre menopause when I eventually realised that I craved carbohydrates part way through my cycle. The binge eating which went alongside the craving was caused by over dieting and being hungry and desperately wanting food that I shouldn’t have. I did go through a phase last year of eating oranges. When I had a b/t it said my iron levels were low and the body needs Vit C to absorb iron so I think it was my body knowing something was lacking. Pre menopause citrus fruits, especially oranges, gave me migraines so I carried on avoiding them. I do crave Marmite sometimes but try not to keep it in the house because I just love Marmite on toast and I’m trying to eat less bread. And I like it best on white bread which I’m really avoiding.

I’m on my 3rd week of Slimming World and for the last 3 nights about 9pm I’ve craved a slice of basic white bread, with butter and marmite.
Weird because before SW I would occasionally have a piece of toast for breakfast but never just bread and butter.
Haven’t given in yet.

Often for milk. Guess I need calcium.

Anything edible works for me

I diet all the time as the meds I'm on mean weight gain even if I am strict, but I wouldn't be without the toast with butter and honey for supper. Just as well I love salad. Yes really. I have a veg drawer full of different stuff that I chop up and have with different dressings. Yum crunch.

And I would describe my morning big mug of latte a craving, definitely.

I love Weetabix with hot oat milk and chopped dates, if I come home from work late it’s what I crave.

I'm very much a person of routine. Every evening while watching television, I have a few biscuits, usually homemade ones. I bake and keep them in the freezer; the grandkids love them frozen, and now I do too.

I'm trying to take off a little winter weight, but habits are hard to break. The cookies are calling out to me...

Not sure if it's true? but I was told real food cravings are what your body needs..?

All the time! Never salad 🤣🤣🤣

Cheese for me please!

It has to be chocolate

Chocolate, jelly babies and cheese for me. Not all at the same time!

Chocolate and cheese biscuits for me Rocketstop2 strangely I never get cravings for salad.

The only time I crave a certain food is when I’m dieting, and for that reason I’ve given up! They really don’t work 🥴

If I go to bed when the urge is upon me, if I deny myself I have a horrible sleep !

Yes and now, I must have that cup of tea 😂

Isn't it weird ? Do you feel better when you've had said item ? I do, usually .

Yes me too…..atm I’m having Ritz crackers - fancied something salty

I think we definitely do, sometimes only a jalfrezi curry with plenty of coriander will do!
