Coka cola is something I drink only a couple of times a year, it is not my favourite drink. Then why have I had a yearning for it all day, this is mystifying me. I can actually taste it. I'll be going out later and I know that I'll order it.
Any one else ever get these out of the blue yearnings?

Re: Why !

Hi White Page. I had a bit ago a craving for something I didn't really like too.

I have forgotten what it is though. All I remember is saying to my mom " I am not sure why I am craving this, I don't even like it" :teehee:

My father used to say, "The great thing about beating your head against the wall is that it feel;s so good when you stop". Maybe it's something like that.
 
Re: Why !

Well I had my coca cola and I really enjoyed it, however one glass was enough, it's incredibly sweet, there must be half a pound of sugar in a glass full, maybe I was suffering from hypoglycimy (not sure about this spelling:eek: any corrections welcome )

:D I know what happened with the spelling, my language neurons got into a twist , must have been all that sugar .
hypoglyc?mie + [/FONT]hypoglycemia = hypoglycimy :)

Re: Why !

About twice a year, I have a major craving for milk. I'll want to drink a whole quart even though I am not a milk drinker at all.

If anything, I am terribly addicted to Coke, not Pepsi, it has to be Coke. I'm really trying to break this - starting after my last bottle.

I just watched Dr. Oz. He had this woman on a no sugar diet and she only lost 6 lbs. but 3 inches off her waist. I told my sister - NO MORE COKE FOR ME

It is good to eliminate cola from your diet.

But a health person does require a certian amount of sugars in their diet. Natural sugars that come in fruits etc, although eliminating all sugars from one's diet would probably be near impossable.

Some carbs convert to sugar in the body too.

Although I am not one to talk about a healthy diet as of lately :blush:

When I was a major health nut, it was about balanced nutrition portions. Not eliminating one component all together.

Re: Why !

I crave weird stuff all the time, and sometimes I too crave things I don't even like. Funny how our bodies are...

One thing I craved the other day is my peanut butter, raspberry jam, and bread and butter pickles sandwich. Everyone else thinks it's absolutely disgusting but I love it. I highly recommend trying it.

Re: Why !

And the only pop I drink is Ginger Ale, which has 33gms of sugar, which isn't all that stellar. Oh well.

Re: Why !

My other favourite is peanut butter and chocolate chips, or peanut butter and alfalfa sprouts, or peanut butter, banana, and alfalfa.

I like some strange things...

Ham, apple, and swiss cheese sandwiches too...
