What do you dream about?

This morning I woke up, and I felt horrible.  Last night in my dreams, I assaulted a huge chocolate waffle cone.  I have resisted all the urges of daily life, and now I'm forced to dream about stuff I want but wont allow myself.  In addition, after I finished the waffle cone, I went "oh well, I messed up.  so, a big mac wont hurt that much more." 

So, anyone else having these issues?

I think these types of dreams are just expressing our insecurities or fears of failures etc. and they do pass :)

When I first started out sometimes I'd dream of eating healthy foods and still visibly gaining weight and having the scale go either up or down but looking bigger ... it's just a crazy way our mind expresses the fears we push aside or don't work through properly in our waking hours.  Keep a journal that can maybe help you work through things like getting over cravings, perhaps explore what it is inside you would be really trying to fill with the food addictions. 

Last night I dreamt that I was cropping a picture.. the picture wasn't of me but my leg was in it.. I had a skinny boney looking shin bone poking out and my calf muscle was hanging down off of it.. it was quite gross.. I was cropping the picture so what folks would see of my leg was the skinny boney shin part.

Nope, for some odd reason I don't dream about food. I dream about.......well......"other things", that and lately I have been worring a lot in my dreams. It seems like they are usually about me struggling with something, just not my diet like in real life. weird....

Last night my dream was about driving to Wisconsin.  I had a huge map and I was trying to find an interesting city in Wisconsin that I could drive to but that I wouldn't get lost in when I got there.  I didn't have any reason for going other than I felt the need to "prove" that I could drive to an unfamiliar place by myself.  In my dream a friend was telling me which cities not to go to because I would get lost in them.  It was rather weird...and I never actually went anywhere.

Last night I had quite a few dreams, but teh ones I remember were really weird.

At one point I dreamt I was a little red headed kid in London and I climbed onto an extremely high rooftop and could see the whole city. Afterwards I boarded a train with my siblings and I cant remember where I went after that.

At another point I began to have a lucid dream. There was a sniper in my house looking for me, and at the point I knew it was a dream, I started to manifest places for myself to hide. Once outside and with the sniper hot on my trail I told myself "its a dream, i can fly if I want!" and I took off into the sky.

The last dream I can remember involves a big open feild, a nonexistant pregnant friend named Lizzy and meteors.

You'd think I'm on drugs by the look of it. lol

I have 2 or 3 recurring dreams over my life time that I find stressful.  One is flying off into the sky a la Superman off the top of the ball park stadium.  Another is being in a crowded place and all of a sudden, I am naked and no place to hide.  The other is being chased by something unusual and I can't move my legs.  They say dreams are based on emotions and the subject matter really has no relevance.

I don't dream of food - but I do have dreams I have a cigarette - (I quit smoking 19 months ago).  When I wake up from these dreams I feel so guilty for having had a cigarette and so scared I am going to go thru withdrawal all over again too!!  Sometimes in these dreams I see cig butts on the ground and feel like I just got to smoke the rest of whats left!!  

Very strange and vivid things. My latest weird one was that i had a baby, but with my uni mate not my husband, and i met up with an old school friend who had a baby (she does anyway). It was all very odd.

I've dreamt of being stood by a roundabout with the royal family. (visions of grandure? hehe)

Alsorts! I remember them for a while but then forget

GAAAHHH!!!! My head is going to explode! (That's not my dream... :) ) As a counsellor I work alot with dreams and dream analysis etc, you all have such amazing dreams I find it so difficult not to jump up an down and say, 'wow, that's so interesting, I wonder if it's about...' I love this stuff, I see dreams as a way that our unconscious selves give us messages, often representing different aspects of our selves and our lives, there are often 'answers' in our dreams that our logical minds will block out or dismiss while we're awake. Listening to our dreams can be a really interesting way to get more in touch with the hidden parts of ourselves...really useful in times of stuggle or when we're thinking, 'I don't know who I am anymore, I don't know what I want...etc...

You're all so fascinating!!!

I dreamt about a fleeting summer love the other night.  He was swiss, i was canadian, we met one night on a thai beach and then left and traveled together in cambodia for a month.  It's so much more romantic in my retrospective dreams haha.  OOOH and also there was chocolate in my dream!  Could be because i havn't had chocoate in 4 days haha. 

Have you guys ever had a dream you wanted to go back to and finish? 

My last dream, just before I wake up is straight from an episode of the Animaniacs, where Wakko is at the movies and has to go to the bathroom. When he discovers that the bathrooms don't work, he must find one somewhere else.  He goes racing around yelling "Potty Emergency!"

I dream I have to go, really bad and everyplace I look there is something wrong with the bathroom, or I find a toilet in the middle of a busy street and can't bring myself to use it in public, or I run into the woods and it's all poison ivy.  It's different every time.

I wake up with a bursting bladder and rush to my own, nice, clean little bathroom!  There's no going back to sleep after that.

Can't remember last night, but the night before it was a horrible dream about an high school ex BF of mine that is dying right now.  It was so real and then I woke up and didn't know where I was and I was crying.  In the dream we were kids again and had lots of old pals with us, some of whom have also passed on.   Well, the dream was actually ok, but the waking and coming back to reality was horrible!  It hit me all over again that these friends aren't here and he won't be much longer.  I was a wee bit depressed all day - coudn't shake it!

Funniest dream ever:  I once drempt I had to pee really badly..looking everywhere for a bathroom..runnign to and fro. In my dream I made it to the bathroom but in reality, I had peed the bed!  Note to self:  Never, ever drink that much again!

Recently I had a dream that my boss and I had high tea. I do like her . I also had a dream that I bought this hugh old house and I found this garden in the back that was hidden , it was like a park and and pond/creek for swimming with a swing rope. I've also dreamed in black and white and color. I dream alot.

I want your dream!  Very cool - don't you wish you could just pull a dream like that up again?

Last night I had a dream that we went to a cookout at hubby's parents, and I really wanted to talk to his cousin about some stuff that was going on, but I could never get her alone, then when I did she was grossly skinny and only talking baout how she needed to lose weight. So, I tried totell her sher didn't, then it was time to leave and we tried to go, but the car would only go in reverse and the brakes didn't work. That was a weird one.

I haven't started dreaming about food, exercise, calories etc yet and I am VERY happy for that.  I think about it enough throughout the day!  I don't wanna dream about it too.  However, I'm pretty sure I had my first dream about CC people the other night.  Don't remember what happened but definitely woke up feeling like I'd dreamt about some of the usernames.  Funny...

Kallie, I have the pee dream ALL the time.  Once or twice I've actually peed the bed.  Most of the time I wake up as soon as I 'find the bathroom' in my dream.  It's awful.  I am horridly paranoid that it will happen when I have someone else in my bed. :-S

A few days ago I dreamt that I was in a room surrounded by cupcakes and I was stuffing them in my face and going insane at how good they tasted. Then I woke up and smiled, before eating a piece of fruit like I always do.

Another strange dream I've had that I can remember is one where I was in my room, and I saw a mars bar behind my dressing table. I  walked over to pick it up. But no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't reach it. I woke up crying, I was so desperate for the mars bar =(

I have very bizarre dreams, not really food related, but sometimes.

Like... I'd be in the hospital or something and someone would come and bring many, many chocolates... then when the person leaves, the chocolates get legs and attack me, then a bunch of vanilla chip things come and fight them away...

Btw, I don't like chocolate.

Ok, last night was WEIRD!

I had to eat McDonald's for some reason, travelling or some such, and it made me so sick in my dream.  When I got home, I searched and searched and couldn't find any fruit or veggies.  Market to market I went - nope, not a single apple, banaa, or tomato.  I find this very odd because the house is very well stocked with f & v at the moment.

I also don't care for McD's, but even if I had to go, I would get a salda and parfait or something or that sort.  Not the Big Mac and fries.  I espec. don't care of Big Macs - just too much for me.

Hmmm.....
