Gonna Try Again.....

Personally I think that once you stay away from sugar and salt your cravings go away. I don't eat much salt anymore and I don't crave salty things and the same with sugar. I've been eating a lot more fruit than I used to. I do keep sugar-free cookies that I allow myself once a day. Wal-mart has the sugar-free chocolate fudge covered cookies......Yum!!! I can have three a day!!!!!

You are right, Diana. The less sugar and carbs I eat, the less I want Unfortunately, that is all I've eaten for about a week I have such a sick relationship with food!

It is true. I just stopped eating sandwiches, and I threw out the bread that had started to get moldy. If I was to have a sandwich though, I would have to eat bread for a couple of weeks until I got over it!

I still need carbs though. I love Pirate's Booty, which is kind of expensive, but has lots of air in between the carbs. I also love all of the soy treats, but I eat too many of them.

Ricky loves the Cookies and Creme Pop Tarts. He takes them and eats on his way to school. I never tried them until recently and all I can say is....THEY ARE SOOOOO GOOD!!!!! It would help if I could keep it out of the house.

Also...it's like Rick is trying to sabotage me. I love Pecan Sandies and those Keebler type cookies with the chocolate stripes. He doesn't eat much of them, but keep buying them. I've told him to keep them in his truck or garage, but he won't do it. I asked him not to buy them and only buy the kinds he likes that I don't....so last night he brought in the ones I mentioned above. I really appreciate his support......NOT!!!!!

If you check the Pecan Sandies they probably don't have a lot of sugar in them so just limit yourself to one or two. As for the chocolate striped cookies you can get them in sugar-free at Wal-mart. They are wonderful!!! I also buy the chocolate covered graham cookies that are sugar-free!! Yummmm!!! I only eat what is recommended as a serving, but they really help my sweet tooth and doesn't make me crave chocolate or sugar. I like to keep them in the fridge!! You might try that and see if that helps. Hugs!!!!

I'll be looking for them when I go to Wal Mart again. That's a great idea Diana. I haven't lost anymore I don't think. I haven't gotten on the scales.

One thing to remember when you're eating sugar-free foods is that it's only "sugar-free". They're not calorie or fat-free.......unfortunately. Glen doesn't remember that but it really helps me..........that and if you eat too much sugar-free chocolate it causes diarrhea!!!!!! BTW--Russel Stover chocolates are good too but only eat ONE at a time........trust me!!!!!
