Guest guest Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 If you have cravings, examine just what you are craving. If it is ice cream, cookies, pie, things like that then it is a fat craving because there is a lot of fat in these type foods.

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 As someone who is currently, slowly trying to bypass this specific type of craving while increasing my good fat - coconut oil intake. I have to disagree. I know there is a fair amount of usually bad vegetable fats in sweets, but for me it's about sugar, the soft texture of the food and the emotional security it represents. Lately though, I've begun to think of sweets as just mushy and therefore unappealing..

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Cravings definitely have social aspects to them. I'm fine when I muddling through on my own, but being around my food-happy family on Thanksgiving (eating lots of stuff I couldn't) really was hard - I didn't have a physical craving so much as an emotional desire to participate... especially as they kept asking me what I could eat and making sympathetic noises when I had to pass on some goodie! andra > This site http://www.2ndwindbodyscience.com/what%20your%20food.php > looks into the subject a little more and a video I posted here not too > long ago explores the social aspects of emotional eating and cravings > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
