What is wrong with me why do I suddenly want to eat crap??

[worriedwalrus]

Been eating healthy since the new year, all good. Have not felt deprived or anythig until now, when I am dying for a takeaway. Don't want to pay much $ though so won't be having one, but wondering what else would hit the spot. I'm thinking crisp sandwich, if I go out to buy crisps and bread.

Whats going on AIBU to suddenly fall off the wagon and want to eat crap for no reason? Or is it a sign my body is craving all the goodness in white bread and crisps and I should just go with it

Just go with it. A little bit of what you fancy and all that.

Not sure I could be arsed to go out this time of night though, do you have any crap in?

Maybe you're craving salt?

Eek, you've done so well! Could you buy a supermarket ready meal takeaway? Cheaper and usually less calorific...

With me it's usually because period due or I'm over-tired.

I'm in the 'a little bit of what you fancy does no harm' camp when it comes to healthy eating. -Crisp sandwiches are gorgeous too, so YANBU to give yourself a little treat.

YABU to mention crisp sandwiches though - now I want one too!

Well, when this happened to me (I found myself in a Wimpy at 10pm, totally out of character) it turned out I was pregnant.

I swear I have never in all my life eaten so many McDonald's etc as I did in those first 12 weeks. It was weird!

I eat well, exercise etc.
This week has been so messed up. DH even asked me what I was doing! The crap I've been eating is beyond a joke.
My period arrived a whole week early and I realised I've been stressing over lots of little things. Nothing major on their own but my god, things have mounted up.

I have had the gross stuff. It made me feel gross but I needed to do it. Tomorrow is a new day.

Dare I ask what 'the gross stuff' is?

I'm thinking deep fried pig's testicles or something

Yep, sounds like period due - always turns me into a crap-craving-savage

Worra,
The gross stuff for me has been, Pringles, (I eat the odd crisp or Taytos but Pringles are a massive low!) M&m's and toast. Loads of toast.

I could do a deep fried pigs ball at the moment.
If it had butter.

That's not that bad, OP, just treat yourself.

I eat well 80% of the time : but if there's brownies at work I'm gonna eat one. I'm not a flipping saint.
