Guest FourAces Posted June 23, 2012 Posted June 23, 2012 I have been craving fruit the past few days. I cannot get enough bananas, watermelon, strawberries .... I wonder if I am pregnant Do any of you guys ever go like cravings with specific foods? Quote
Guest EXPAT Posted June 23, 2012 Posted June 23, 2012 Yes!! And my cravings are usually seedless grapes and oranges. Quote
Members JKane Posted June 23, 2012 Members Posted June 23, 2012 I do to, especially the good Costco cherries! But fruit is a lot of sugar and excess can cause setbacks, so I try to moderate myself. For a long time I did without, but a couple servings every day or two has been OK too. Quote
Members TampaYankee Posted June 24, 2012 Members Posted June 24, 2012 Fruit is actually a good source of sugar compared to the white processed stuff. All in moderation. I have been craving fruit for several months now too. Not sure why but I keep a container of mixed strawberries and blueberries in the fridge all the time, at least until the cherries stared coming in. Now blueberries and cherries. I also frequently drink pomegranate juice, mixed with diet 7-Up to cut the sugar intake. Lot's of benefits to these intensely colored dark and red fruits -- anti cancer, anti-hypertension, anti-inflammatory,... yada, yada, yada, ... They taste good too. Quote
Members Lucky Posted June 25, 2012 Members Posted June 25, 2012 Now we see why he posted a picture of bananas in the Pornification Forum! Quote
Members ihpguy Posted July 8, 2012 Members Posted July 8, 2012 The craving might be satisfied by complex carbohydrates instead of the fructose. I have also recently discovered something great on my recent trip back to the USA. Low-fat frozen yogurt. Very satisfying and a quarter of the calories in Haagen-Dazs. Quote
Members axiom2001 Posted July 13, 2012 Members Posted July 13, 2012 This summer I've enjoyed organically grown strawberries and blue berries. I've changed my regimen and feel much more lively! Quote
