whiter teeth!

[mjlanham2]

I am now on day 3 of induction and the cravings have hit full force! I have drank a lot of water but nothing has helped. I can't go for a walk because I am home with a sick child and really can't leave. So I decided to brush my teeth and then drink more water. If I keep this up I will have beautiful white teeth!!! Please don't tell me my toothpaste is loaded with carbs!!! I don't use that much anyway.

Re: whiter teeth!

When you get cravings try eating the opposite -- if you crave sweets - try pickles (no sugar is best) or olives. Eat a few (2 or 3) to see if that cuts your craving. Remember, the cravings will subside in a couple days - it's your brain telling your body it wants the crap you've been eating for so long...stick it out, you're almost there.

Also, make sure you aren't eating anything with hidden carbs - and if you are using sweetner cut it out.

Good luck - and congrats on the great white smile!!
