i see you are almost to your weight loss goal. congrats!!!! what a difficult journey that is. perhaps your body is craving the oils, or maybe the salt in the p.butter and celery. keeping the portion small sure helps... i have learned that. again, Congrats :thumbup: :thumbup:

My wise grandmother used to say that when you are craving something it is because your body is deficient......I'm not a orange juice drinker, but sometimes I crave oranges or orange juice; sometimes I crave other things that are rich in iron....I think she might of been right.

At the moment I'm eating salsa that is extra hot with no salt tortillas.....go figure that one !

When I get a craving it's usually for salt. Foods that I usually eat to satisfy the craving are bologna and salt & vinegar chips, washing it down with Pepsi. Talk about cholesterol!!
I always make sure these are in the house before I go out for a night on the town. They really help my hangover!
