Day 7 ~ Comfort food craving upon waking

Recommended Posts

It's so nice to be here! This is my first post. :)

I've been Paleo for almost 2 months now, and this is Day 7 of W30 for me. I've been banging along quite nicely with lots of progress and feeling better, etc. This morning, I woke up with a powerful food craving for a kind of sugary cereal (which shall remain nameless) and milk. I went downstairs and scarfed a bowl of chili because I knew the craving would go away after I ate. It went away, but it was disconcerting. I had the feeling of a kind of mild mourning over not EVER having sugary cereal and milk again. Anyone else ever have that?

Day 7 is a common time to experience cravings and a little sadness. But you handled it beautifully. Eating a bowl of chili is a perfect response to a craving for sugary cereal. Eating fruit would have made it worse, but protein and fat tends to quench the desire. Good for you!
