Cyph31 3 Posted May 21, 2007 been having cravings for eggs, nuts, seeds, etc. for a long time, can't touch any of them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LabGirl81 4 Posted May 21, 2007 I crave stupid crap. Right now I want a big tomato with salt and pepper. Later I'll want a piece od sharp cheddar cheese. Then I'll want a piece of chocolate. Then I'll want spanish olives. Then I'll want pickles......then feta cheese...... My psych meds are messing with my serotonin receptors and making me crave random foods...... Why can't you eat eggs, nuts, or seeds? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JessFirestone 6 Posted May 21, 2007 I read this article on genetically engineered foods a few days ago, I was curious about frankenfoods and how little we know about the side effects long-term. Since they are largely unknown. It seems that a massive portion of my diet is comprised of these foods-heck, a large portion of the foods you buy at Publix are genetically modified. Now I've been getting a little queasy when I go to eat something that's processed and doesn't benefit me like crackers or cheez-its or chocolate chips. Don't know how much this helps though Are you still lifting weights? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IFeelBroken 1 Posted May 22, 2007 When I'm hungry for sweets or bad things, I like to drink a hot cup of tea... Hot tea fools your stomach and makes you feel full... Just put lots of sugar...lol.... Chocolate is bad! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IFeelBroken 1 Posted May 22, 2007 ^ haha.. Yeah I know It sounds stupid... But anyways, ordinary sugar is just sugar! No milk or any other crap that you find in chocolate. There is a difference. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seaview 0 Posted May 22, 2007 be careful there... some say that its the sugar in chocolate (and milk) that break people out, not the actual chocolate itself. sugar is not good at all for acne. too bad you need the sugar and milk to make the chocolate.

It does seem like pregnancy cravings. I'm not pregnant though (altough it would explain the swollen sore boobs....I just thought I was getting fat).... Nah....I'm on the pill, and we're pretty careful...... It's not abnormal for psych meds to cause cravings. The slight weight gain is why none of my bras fit and that makes them hurt. I think I'm going to have a big salad for dinner.....and play it safe.... I really want some carrot cake right now though.....at leasy my salad will have carrots in it.......

My psych meds make me so hungry, and I'm starting to gain weight.... Grrr...... Omg the same thing has been happening to me to! Lately I bought an apple pie from trader joes, double rainbow soy ice cream, and some cheesepuffs. Ive been eating those things for breakfast. Yesterday I had a piece of the apple pie from breakfast and a lot of cheesepuffs because they are addictive. For dessert last night I had the soy ice cream, two large scoops. Depression really messes with our thought process Labgirl what meds is it thats causing this?

I like Survivorman better.......the guy on Man vs. Wild just bugs me...... Well I've removed all chocolate from my lab at work....and I ate all my bakers chocolate at home (it's not sweetened at all)....I can't do any more damage......I don't have any bad food at my house, and if I want it at work I have to go to a vending machine.....which is on another floor.....I don't have enough effort and I don't have any cash on me anyway....
