Don’t forget your gut biome is a friend, or else you’ll always remember that fecal transplants are an effective treatment.
I lowkey want that, i grew up with the worst diet and crave the least nutritious food 24/7. I can make and eat some great healthy food, 5 seconds later I want junkfood with a full stomach since it doesn't satiate.
Did you try to endure the cravings for a few days? If you switch to a healthy diet it's annoying first, but after some time you are used to it. The microbiom changes - bacteria population processing healthy food grow, others starve.
I've broken a leg and enduring cravings felt worse
I did it once, lost hella weight, its way harder to do it again the second time knowing how it was (post covd gyms closing killed my routine, started doordashing hella, gained a lot of weight I had lost back, slowly lost half of that again)
If gut biomes influence what food you crave since its what the bacteria wants
