jmcbn Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 It always helps to figure it out if you could give us a couple of days worth of what you've been eating/drinking... Link to comment
MTNan Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 I had my WORST sugar craving on day 26 of my W30! I was surprised like you are, but I just kinda laughed at the sugar dragon because I knew that I was going to win that little battle. It's a curious thing, for sure, but I don't worry so much about why I crave certain things, I just focus on my reaction to it. Link to comment

Karen Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Are you close to getting your period? Link to comment
Karen Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Is that a yes? If so, EAT LOTS OF COMPLIANT CARBS! Your body will need them then, and if it isn't getting what it needs, it has its tricks to get more! Link to comment
jviher Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 I am on day 23 of my Whole30, and remember feeling the same way during my period. I had been feeling extremely good in the first week and a half, and was amazed at my lack of sugar cravings, but once I hit that point in my cycle (which happened to be days 11-14 for me), my "sugar dragon" could (almost) not be contained!! I always crave chocolate that time of the month, in addition to salty foods, so I wasn't shocked once I put two and two together, but holy cow. Serious, fire-breathing dragon. Link to comment
tangerine Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Day 20 today for me and the only time throughout this program so far where I was haunted by thoughts of a warm banana nut muffin. But it was a lot of factors, hadn't slept due to work, was having a tough morning and my mind lingered to memories of comfort that sort of treat with a latte used to bring. The moment passed though.
