Drink cravings

[Schoska]

I get drink cravings.
Not alcoholic ones (thankfully!!)
For example, I suddenly NEED orange juice.... Or apple juice.
This only happens with fruits juices.
I eat fruit, and I take a multivit, but out of no where, these cravings arrive.
It is like I am binge drinking. During a bad episode I can easily drink 1, 2 litres.
I am concerned but more confused... i really don't know what to do. It isn't thirst either as I am drinking plenty of water..

Thats bizarre. For the past week or so I've been craving juice and fruit drinks like crazy, and I'm usually a hot-tea or water person. Today at work I bought a Mystic Sparkling Sugar Fruit Water thing, and my co-worker commented that she'd never seen me drink anything but water or hot tea before (in 2 yrs!). I think it might be the spring :D .

sometimes people mistake thrist for hunger, and hunger for thrist. Have you been hungery? :confused:

[Schoska]

maybe it is spring!!!
(sure doesn't feel like it though!!)
As for hunger - I am sure it isn't that too..which is what makes it even more strange.
Oh well, I can deal with it/me being bizzare!!

also, what about heating up some drinks. like hot soymilk etc. sometimes hotter drinks make our bodies feel fuller.

Good Luck!

:hi:

Thanks Autumn :) I'll keep trying!

Schoska, I wonder if you could be just craving the sugar. I have this juice-lust oftentimes after working out..I suspect it's just my body saying "feed me". :D

i've gotten frequent fruit juice cravings my whole life.

I live on orange juice . . .

Ugh, I do this with Sprite. Its just horrid...suddenly I'll just NEED Sprite. I can easily drink a liter of it. Bad me.
I think IamJen is probably right on, I bet you are craving the sugar. Just like me and my Sprite, only better for you.

That's weird, just the other day I had this nagging craving for apricot nectar, and I haven't had any in at least a year :stinkeye: Maybe it's the change in season.

me, too

[Schoska]

hehe I'm not alone!!!
I really thought I was the only one who had the urge to run to the supermarket at 3am just to buy juice..mmmmmm
I've been watching my diet this week and I can't pin point why I'm craving it. But, I'm not too worried as there are worse things to crave!! (At least it isn't chocolate!)

[LadyFaile]

wierd. it's good for you though so i wouldn't worry about it. just remember to buy real juice and not "drinks" that are mostly sugar and artificial flavour/colour and you should be fine.
