Oh boy, one year and some months out now. 95 pounds down and all of a sudden I have a craving for something I never even consumed before.

Coke? WTF? I have never drank Coke, never had a hard time giving up pop, but all of a sudden. THIS?

Perhaps it is the caffeine I am craving, big time sugar??? I don't even get this one.

Any one else have a strange cravings?

Lately I've been craving things that I never liked before. Hated eggrolls, 2 days ago I ate a whole one. Hated olives, at a jar of them last week. Hated diced tomatoes on top of things, now I eat them all the time. I'm not sure if my tastes are changing or what. I know I'm definately not pregnant!

Cravings? Hell yes! HATED pumkin flavored things...this year I can't seem to get enough; coffee, pie, etc.

I never was a fan of ice cream. Well...last weekend I had pumpkin ice cream! It's true!!!

I also get 'spur of the moment' cravings, too. Like in what i'd assume in pregnancy. Mushrooms - gotta have em NOW. Mexican - NOW.

Very strange!

LOL!! I'm craving a Coke too!! I never liked Coke before and I guess now that my doctor says it's a no no, I want a big tall glass of Coke with lots of ice:confused:

Definately! I never liked sweets before, but now I eat small amounts of icecream & chocolate. It has worked the other way w/me too..I used to like wheat bread much better than regular, and now I hate the taste of wheat bread! I thought that was weird.

I was never a big fan of soda. I drank it, but that's about it... but hell, I was already down to caffeine free, sugar free... so it was really just like nastyw ater. ANYWAY, I went through a sort of random phase where I craved the CARBONATION. You know, when you chug a freshly opened can, and get that fizzy burn in your throat? I was craving that like you wouldn't believe. It went away.

Other new cravings - I used to not eat pig meat, now I enjoy the taste of bacon. I don't crave it now, but I used to.

I'm not a chocolate fan, but I crave chocolate chip Cookies. That's probably become one of my two largest vices as a bandster - cookies, which I could take or leave pre-op - and key lime pie, which I've always enjoyed.

im the same way with ice cream ... pre-band, i could take or leave it...

the past month or so, i REALLY want it...
