More on Cravings

A few weeks ago I started discussing cravings. Today I’ll expand on the topic.There are so many kinds of cravings sometimes it’s challenging to decipher exactly where they are coming from.

One type of craving frequently occurs just because it’s there! For example you may not even think of eating cookies but if your daughter is selling Girl Scout cookies you’ll see them all over your house and probably “crave” them just because they are there! Put them out of sight and you probably won't crave them, or at least as much.

That’s what I call an environmental craving. If certain certain foods are in your immediate sight of course  you’ll “crave” them just because they are "calling your name!" Same thing at the movies, the minute you walk in and you smell the popcorn you’ll want it. Or walk by a bakery and what do you see? …all kinds of goodies. Will you start craving something, a resounding yes! See it and you'll usually crave it, very simple.
