Ok, I just sat down this morning with a piece of cake! It was right there on my countertop and I couldn't help it. I feel like crap this morning and I'm so tired and it was right there. I don't usually keep this stuff around, but another family member sent it over for the kids.

Of course doc wants me to eat healthy, but when you're in pain, it's not very motivating to chew on leaves (ok, spinach,brocolli,kale, etc.) I do try to juice my veggies. I can get more in that way. With TMJ too, it's hard to chew a lot! Are you guys able to eat this way? Can you live on fish and lettuce and green shakes?? I cook up big roasts and whole chickens, etc. for the family so I can put in fridge to eat again later, but I'm not even supposed to eat a lot of that kind of stuff. But, it's too hard to cook for them and then cook myself a separate meal.

Ok, then another doc I see says to eat whatever my body tells me I need - except for candy. Even steak is ok! Listen to my body - it's probably telling me what I need. Nobody seems to agree on anything and it's pretty frustrating!

So, today my body needed CAKE!!???

Anybody else have cake days??

I cant eat a lot of the dark green veggies because it interferes with my PT/INR levels ( I take Coumadin). I usually eat corn and uh..corn. Celery? LOL

I'm really sorry you have to wait for that BB cake mamanordy! I agree with dragonfly - step away from the cake - go to another room - focus on your pain and craving is GONE! Ok, maybe bad advice

You all are cracking me up!! I so needed a laugh today!
