You aren't the first to have dreams of eating on this plan hehe.. I didn't but I read quite a few folks on here did dream stuff just like you did. They go away I guess! Doesn't take too long.

The dreaded eatmares!!

I haven't had any dreams. I have learned to live vicariously through my family. They were getting kind of tired of having L&G all the time. I spoke with my md, and now I am doing the full plan. Friday night was catfish friday. I made fried catfish, hushpuppies, fried okra and french fries. Yes, everyones cholesterol took a major leap up, but that has long been a tradition for my husband (well, for TONS of people in this area) on Friday nights. Last night, I made chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes, gravy and mac and cheese. For dessert I made a French Pear Pie with a cinamon crumb topping and homemade vanilla bean ice cream. My family loved it. They just talked about how good it was to have good food again. And, I must admit, I did taste the pie. But, the jokes I have made about pretending that everything gives me diarhea, well, turns out they are not jokes. INSTANT!! My body just doesn't want it anymore. And the cramps that came along with it are enough to keep me away from junk for a long time.

Oh supermom!!! That pie and icecream sound soooo awesome!!! Thanks for the new craving! Just teasing... but I want a taste!

Haven't had that with food yet....I did when I quit smoking last year. More than once I dreamed I lit up.

Had the same experience as Wildtrk.

Had a two pack a day habit and quit cold turkey one dark and stormy weekend. My kids still joke about the weekend from hell when "mom kicked the nicotine". After that weekend and for several months later I had very vivid dreams of smoking. Not just one cigarette, but there were times when I dreamnt I had a whole mouthful of cigarettes 20 or more of them at one time...and in the dream I'd be bewildered how all these cigarettes got there and angry at myself for smoking them.

For what it's worth that was 11 years ago and I've never had a cigarette since. So, I'd venture to guess that dreaming about cheating on the diet is a good thing. It seemed to contribute to my success in stopping smoking, and probably will work the same way for you regarding eating off plan.

Good luck and keep shaking...

Don't worry, unless you wake up with crumbs in your bed or find scraps in the kitchen you did great!!! Dream food -- in dreams at least has no calories!!

I've had those dreams too. And I'd feel so guilty for eating something off-plan. In later 'eatmares' (I love that term), I'd take a bite, then realize what I was doing and spit it out. even my dreams are catching on.
