I once had major sugar cravings as an addict. Now that I'm clean the cravings have stopped. Anyone else?

I have not had any sweet cravings anytime while using anything, well besides weed.... but eh we know about that. My boyfriend, on the other hand, can't get enough of sweets when he is high.

Chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate. Icecream also, but  no where near as much as chocolate!!!
Oh and occasionally it would be salt and suger - Chips dipped in icecream. Bizarre and quite disgusting!!! Ask aboutmypregnancy cravings!!!
Now I crave healthy food, it's so depressing!! It makes me feel SO old!!!

AWHHHHHHHH, The Cravings for sweets!!!
I take Morphine for pain management and I ALWAYS ALWAYS crave sweets.
I have been known to go out to dinner and order Desert for dinner, lol.
I know it has to do with being on opiates because I never ever had a sweet tooth before.....
 
Much Love Karen

HI!
God I LOVE chocolate!  BUT my most favorite thing in the whole wide world:
 
Home made strawberry shakes.
Made with, vanilla ice cream, real strawberries and milk.
YUM!   Sometimes I had 1/2 banana.
 
I have gained SO MUCH wieght on this methadone. 
 
Has anybody else gained like 50 lbs?  No kidding.  I look like I'm 9 months pregnant.  Disgusting.  I dont know if it's from the methadone or just from having more money for food!?
 
luv,sue

I quit, and put on 40+ kilo's, which I think is like 80+ pounds.
I stopped using smack and started eating, and kept eating.
I too do the strawberry shake, less milk though!!!!
I believe it's called swapping addictions!!!
I even tried taking up smoking to stop myself!!
I finally lost it all, and then a bit more, then split up - got wlked out on with barely a goodbye - with my Ex and put half of it back on! Now I'm on meds that help keep the weight on.
It's all a HUGE conspiacy!!!!!
We are being punished for all our illegal self indulgent ways!!!
Ahhh - I hear a snack calling!!

I have a major sweet tooth. Chocolate!!!! I know that chocolate has the same effecy as heroin in the feel good enzimes stuff that happens in UR brain, only alot less than dope. I found That I'm losing weight on methadone, it's only been a few weeks 6 I guess but I have lost about 10 pounds or more. I have nooooooooo appetite, for nothing. but I do eat the chocolate and the sweets, not alot . The plumbing is still not working great, just like heroin does to ya, blocks everything, So prunes and exlax it is.

hehe, i just quit and the first thing i bought was 2 quarts of ice cream, and a chocolate bar to eat on the drive home. couldn't do much harm, i'm quite skinny. i don't like eating in the first place so when i'm on heroin i only eat once a day at most.. almost 6 foot 5 and i'm guessing i weigh around 170

I wish I was one of those people who lost wieght on methadone, like my husband and my sister.  They both lost a bunch of weight.  Not me....oh nooooooooo.  I gained a bunch.  I eat the same as when I was doing heroin, so it's not that. 
 
Narayana, you're a female right?   Pretty tall!   I'm only about 5'6" myself.  I think I shrunk, got shorter,  in my old age.
 
luv,
sue
