I find irony in the fact that I posted about craving sweets today. Earlier I was thinking, "Pop sounds so good. And pizza... and Ice cream. Wtf is wrong with me?" I remembered my recent google on reasons you crave sweets and ate a salad. 10 minutes later my cramps screamed, "Gimme ice cream now!" And then I realized PMS was rearing its ugly head today. Question is: can I resist or do I give in?

I go through periods where I crave sweets like crazy! It gets so bad that I blackout and wake up having ate a whole carton of ice cream! Ok, it's not that bad but sweet cravings do not help you lose fat. So I took to my friend Goggle and created this list of reasons you could have a case of sweet tooth.

- lack of sleep
- PMS
- dehydration
- stress
- lack of protein in your diet
- sweeteners

Typically if I get sleep, drink more water and add protein to my diet my cravings subside. Happy Eating!
