I try not to think too much about my cravings as that is what got me here it the first place!

What I have been trying, and I think succeeding in retraining myself to think of Food as Fuel and nothing else.

If you are wanting rich and creamy, your body is just adjusting to the lower fat. If it keeps up and you feel it becoming a problem, try increasing your oil allotment. LITERALLY, take it off a spoon. It will satiate you and help get over that need (if it is one).

Cravings---yes, I have a lot of them. I enjoy pizza, hamburgers, subway, KFC...kind of explains why I am on the diet in the first place :)
Carla mentioned dreaming about pancakes. I had some weird dreams also. My dreams can be very real, to the point where if I pick something up I actually feel the weight and texture of it. So I would frequently dream that I had pizza, hamburgers, etc in massive meal. Then I would feel guilty about what I had done. Then I would usually wake up and it would take me a couple minutes to convince myself that the guilt was undeserved; that I hadn't actually binged on all that food. It got pretty annoying after awhile, but it is now subsided.

not craving hamburgers anymore (phew!). now i am craving sauteed onions. not green onions... sweet white or yellow onions. and let me tell you something, the WF Jersey Sweet Onion dressing does absolutely nothing to fill that craving because that dressing is really gross. i don't even think i can finish my salad today because of it, and it has cactus on it (my favorite!).

I have been on IP since October 2010, and in the past month or so I crave COFFEE! I can't get enough (decaf, sweetened with Splenda and WF choc syrup). I have always had coffee, but never craved it to this extent. Very odd.

that's funny. i was never much of a coffee drinker before this (although i was almost addicted to sugar free red bull), but now i have to have it every day! why is coffee so good!?!?!
