[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. Thanks for your thoughtful responses. I’m not dieting per se, in order to lose weight. I am eating healthy to ensure my body gets all the nutrients it needs. I have high cholesterol so I also want to lower that through diet. Right now I am flexeterian. I drink a smoothie for breakfast, and eat stir fried veggies for lunch and dinner. After a few days of this I am craving “real food” so I indulge on a chicken sandwich for lunch. Today i ordered a chicken and cheese panini. But I feel guilty since I already had one on Monday. I don’t want the carbs and cheese to increase the omega 6 in my body and contribute to my cholesterol. [/quote]

Uh, you're not eating any real food.  Of course your body is craving food.  You're starving yourself.

Mean this genuinely, see a therapist.  You have food issues.[/quote]

How are vegetables and fruits not real food? I also have generous helpings of fish with my veggies throughout the week. [/quote]

Her diet sounds yummy. I love smoothies and vegetables. I put yogurt in my smoothies and sometimes add beans and tofu to my vegetables. Not everyone is disordered you know. Plus she's being strategic about cheat meals to satisfy cravings. [/quote]

Your original post didn't mention adding fish.  Of course vegetables and fruits are real food, but it's not a balanced diet.  A person needs fat in their diet.  And protein.  Which is probably why OP is craving a damn burger.  It's just too extreme.  If it wasn't too extreme, she wouldn't be seeing dancing burgers in her head.[/quote]
