Craving Salt?

I have been CRAVING salt something fierce, I feel like just grabbing one of those salt licks for deer and licking on it...

I think it's just my TOM getting ready to make an appearance, but it is REALLY bad. I don't want carbs or junk or sugar- just a TON of salt, like RIGHT out of the package. Anyone else had this?

ButterflyA, are you drinking [i]a lot[i] of water? And are you perhaps eating mostly real, whole foods? It's possible your body really is craving salt. If you've been losing a lot of water and if you haven't been replacing it with sodium found in foods (and you'll find a lot less in the whole, natural stuff) your body could be trying to tell you something.

I'm averaging about 100-150 ozs. of water a day. I don't know about the sodium in foods, though, I'm probably not getting enough
