  • Help i want something sweet

    I am NOT hungry. I started back up this morning and now am at the hardest part of the day...the time I usually have a cocktail or glass of wine. My DD's boyfriend just ate a chocolate brownie slathered in vanilla icing in front of me (because I need all desserts out of this house asap), but now all I can think about is that darn icing!!! HELP!!!

    A spoonful of cream cheese with a dash of Splenda should do the trick!

      No cream cheese in the house but believe me...I am getting some tomorrow for sure! Just had green tea with a splenda instead...feeling sooooo virtuous...

        Add a tiny squeeze of lemon juice to the cc and splenda.....or for even less carbs, a drop of lemon oil.

          A little cream cheese, heavy cream, butter and vanilla flavoring whipped up with some Splenda makes an awesome cream cheese frosting. Just make a little bit and make it last. Eat it in tiny bites and swirl it around on your tongue before swallowing. That should take care of the craving.
          People who say it can't be done, should not interrupt those doing it.

              Well, in an entirely different direction, when I crave something sweet, I have ranch dressing. Somehow it does the trick for me and it also forces me to squeeze in those veggies...salad, cucumbers, celery. Works every time although I'm sure it's not the first thing most people think of!

                  I think she just started induction again, so ricotta is not allowed. You can have ricotta on rung 2, dairy.
