craving nondiary coffee creamer

why am i craving coffee creamer?  i take several vitamins daily, so why do i have this weird craving.  never did before.  not a big milk drinker so i'm baffled.  any thoughts on this?

Can't say I've ever heard of that one before.  Weird !

I'm a BIG coffee drinker and I gotta have my coffee creamer!  Just gotta! 

Oh me too! It was hard giving up my creamer at the beginning. Now I'm back to my lowfat Hazelnut and French Vanilla a few times a week.

Coffeemate just came out with a sugar free hazelnut.  It is delish!!!

I guess there could be worse cravings.. i like putting it in my hot chocolate..its so good.. i dont drink coffee, so, i gotta put it somewhere lol

This may just be a matter of old habits dying hard. It may just be head hunger. But since some coffee creamers have whey protein in them (depending onthe brand and maker) - this could be a sign that you are not getting enough protein in your diet. you may be craving the whey protein in the coffee creamer. May be a good time to review your basics 1) Protein - 50-60 grams minimum a day 2) Fluids - 64 ounces a day 3) Vitamins - a good multivitamin at least twice a day 4) Daily aerobic exercise. Vitamins do not contain protein.

Good luck to you and good health.
