Can't figure out what I'm craving!

I have been craving something for about a week now, but I can't figure out what it is. I've tried a variety of fruits, veggies, sweets, salty snacks, etc and nothing satisfies my craving! Anyone else in this boat?

Re: Can't figure out what I'm craving!

  • Lol yes! It's like I want something, but I don't. Right now I want a waffle but I know as soon as I make it I won't want it anymore. The struggle.

  • I think that's just called hunger! :))

    But yes, I hate that feeling! Like an itch you just can't scratch!
  • I hate that! Sometimes it takes me so long I figure out what I want I get nauseous from being too hungry!
  • Sometimes our bodies crave nutrients that our body isn't getting. Maybe you are lacking in some area: protein, iron, calcium, etc.
  • It's been about a week now! There's something that I want really bad, but I can't figure it out. I walked up and down every aisle in the store hoping something would stand out. Nope.
    @ealiska I get the same way!

    Yes!!! This happens to me all the time. I get so hungry and nauseous. It's frustrating! 
  • My bet is on protein. ..even when I wasn't pregnant I would have this and only a protein filled meal would get rid of it. I have an aversion to meat still since getting pregnant so I would suggest some cheese and an apple with pb....weird I know but it's been helping me a lot plus it's not the worst thing to be eating hahaha
  • I can't figure mine out either. Just looking at food pisses me off
  • I have the opposite problem. I've been craving all sorts of things from salty to sweet to sour. One moment all I can think about is ramen noodle soup, then I want a smoothie or some dried fruits and nuts. Then I want a spinach and beet salad with balsamic dressing. Next I was craving cottage cheese with peach butter and golden raisins. Thankfully, everything I've been craving has been mostly healthy.
  • Yes I have that problem, so I just eat everything...  X_X
