Carb Cravings
Man I do not know what is going on but the last two days I have wanted carbs so bad. I even had a half a bagel today, which by the way made my tummy upset. At lunch I had a wrap and even when I was full I wanted to eat more for the flat bread that was there (I did not, do not want an upset tummy twice in one day). But now I am sitting here and would kill for any bread what so ever. What the heck is going on with me today.

Hi Jenn!!
As a die hard South Beacher, I can say if my body felt the cravings I'd know it was trying to tell me I had to many bad carbs and to step back, take some out, maybe a lot out, and try again. When I am PMSing I have major carb cravings, so what do I do? I eliminate them for the most part.............even the good ones. We have to learn to listen to what our bodies are saying, and work with them. If you are craving it, you're getting too much, time to cut back. I hope this is helpful to you. XOXOXOOXOO

I too have been having cravings. I notice they rear their ugly heads at night about 8. I would not say it was specifically carbs but anything will do. I do not like this. I do not feel comfortable with feeling like I have to eat at night. Now, of course, I know I do not "have to eat" but I always cave in. I will take a hand full of almonds or some Kashi Goodfriends, just a bit to kill the craving. That usually takes care of the cravings and then I am ok. But it just brings me back to the days of feeling out of control. I am very happy I got into a size 8 jeans (I was 18-20 W) and I am almost at my goal. I want to go down to 145. I am 152 and have hit a plateau which I am ok with.
I do believ its the munchies at night that is not letting me break this plateau.
Oh I have rambled on long enough, I'll be quiet now.
Peace n Light
