Re: Craving Chocolate

Inductions is to learn to manage those cravings so drink some water and see if you can't get thru it. Dont eat a bar cause they are evil
Now saying that, a legal chocolate treat is get a bit of cream cheese and mix some cocoa powder and splenda in it. It rather tastes like chocolate icing.

Hi there- I am also doing induction & was also dying for some chocolate. I went out and bought some "Nips". (You can get them at Walgreens/Walmart). They have a sugar-free ones that are zero carbs. I chose the chocolate flavor. You can suck on these babies for awhile and they totally help with those cravings. You'll see that the cravings get less and less as time goes on, but those Nips have saved my life.

We don't really beleive in eating 'frakenfoods' on this board. If it is made in a lab, them its bad!! Those Nips aren't really 'carb free', they say you don't have to count the carbs, but you do. They can cause stalls in your weight loss. The only way to beat the sweet monster is to starve it, but if you must please eat something from the Induction Friendly list, like the Mock Danish. Please, stay away from the 'low carb' candy, it is BAD for you!

I find that I will do well on induction until I introduce the "Frankenfoods". One Atkins bar or some sugar-free chocolate, will send me into a sugar binge. I don't know why, but for me, personally, I have to really avoid them, as well.
