    Got a hunger on.......!

    Hi Guys

    For the first time since day 2 of doing this WOE, I have been really hungry today. I am pretty certain why... I saw on another thread yesterday that Atkins now says one cup of regular coffee a day is fine. I made my hubby a big pot of freshly ground coffee this morning and decided to indulge in a cup (I normally drink decaf tea). About 30 mins later I began to feel soooo hungry - I was craving salad cream... now I know you will tell me off but I ended up having 1 teaspoon of it (0.9 carbs) as I knew it would nip it in the bud (it did) and didn't want to go on a food frenzy trying to get the taste from other foods and then eating it anyway. Slapped wrist for me but at least it shouldn't cause too many problems.

    I am off to drink lots of water and watch my favourite daytime show.

    Catch you all later.

    I'm sorry...what is salad cream? Salad dressing? Mayo? Well, if there are carbs in it--you can always start over tomorrow! It's going to be ok. Don't get discouraged. A lot of people after taking in carbs they weren't supposed to have start eating other carb food-don't let yourself do that! Once you start it is really hard to stop sometimes. You, however, seem like a very motivated person and I'm sure will do just great!

      Salad cream is a salad dressing like mayo but it contains sugar. It is 1.8g per serving and I had half a serving. Thankfully, I am in deep ketosis (very purple on stix) and don't feel hungry again now. It was a blip. x

        I've found that coffee makes me hungry too, but I'm not sure whether it's the coffee or the cream that I put in it that triggers the hunger. I tend to avoid the stuff, except on rare occasions.

          Well lesson learned and with very little consequences...you are lucky. I think I will stay away from the coffee.

            I am definitely going to stick to de-caf. I don't crave caffeine anyway so it was just not worth it!
