mgwhee Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 This isn't a typical "problem" like being too hungry or irritable or really constipated or something, but I am having recurring, vivid dreams about cheating on my program and it makes me feel guilty and concerned. Will this ever stop? I have never once in my life dreamed about food before starting the Whole30. Now, I dream about it about 5x a week. I'll be doing something normal, like hanging out with my friends, and I'll look down and notice that I've been eating nachos, or pizza or something. Or I accidentally took a sip of my friend's soda. The rest of my dream is a self driven guilt trip where I try to justify it, try to say it's okay, and then end up realizing that my program is out the window and I need to start again. I wake up feeling guilty and dejected and it makes me worry. I have been very careful and have been 100% compliant in my 22 days on the program, but I was wondering will this "stage" ever end? I want to stick with the fundamentals after my 30 days are done, but I don't want to give myself a complex about food. I don't want to lose sleep thinking about how bad it is to eat a tortilla chip! Has anyone else had this? Does it go away? Any tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rewalton Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I've been having like the same exact dreams!!!! They've been almost every night, and I rarely have vivid dreams. Its always an accident, and then I feel super guilty the rest of the dream but I try and justify so I don't have to start over! Unfortunately, I have no advice, but I just wanted to say that I'm in the same boat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeadowLily Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Ooooo, those dreams will go away. I used to dream I was on the Diners, Drive-ins and Dives show. I was eating every huge bite like Guy F. I could match him under the table....swill, slurp and swallow. It was glorious in those dreams but they went away. You're working through things at night. Shake them off.
