My own concoction

[sweetz0625]

Hey everyone,
So I am on induction, and I had a craving and so I made up my own little comcoction hoping that it is okay. I take ice, cream about 2 teaspoons and about 1 teaspoon of splenda, and then mix it in the blender and then voola. It is so good and it takes the sweet tase away, I hope that this is okay. Give me your won opinion and if anyways has tried this before, and if it stalls weight or if I shouldnt be eating it.
Thanks

Hi Christi

Although it is 'legal' for induction as long as you count the cream in your cream allowance, and your splenda as one of your 3 sweetener servings we encourage you here at ADBB to try not to feed your sweet tooth on induction.

Instead of having something sweet try eating something highfat like a meat/cheese rollup, celery with cream cheese, devilled egg etc. We (well, those of us with sweet tooths) need to teach our bodies that WE decide what to eat - not our sugar monster!! So by giving it a savoury snack instead of a sweet one we are letting it know that we are happy to feed it but just not with something sweet.

I found that by not even using my 'allowed' 3 servings of sweetener I really dont 'need' much in the way of desserts or sweets. My sugar monster seems to have curled up and died for lack of sugar-tasting foods!!
