 Quote From: inchesbgon Good Evening! I totally feel the same way as you Sherri, I did good all day today with my meals, and then around 6:30I was craving for something sweet. Happens everyday after supper. So I made a banana creampie. Except I didn't feel like running to the store for the whip cream, so I did with out. I had 2 slices. It didn't make me feel any better after I ate it, just wished I didn't, next time I will look for some sugar free candy or gum or something to satisfy my sweet tooth. In my own opinion, I feel that i shouldn't deprive myself. but the problem I have is just trying to have 1, that is what I am going to work on from now on, I need to try and control myself!! Actually now that I think of it, I guess I did do ok after all, I went to go and pick up the kids and then thought, I felt like some nachos and cheese. I thought about it and said to myself. well I already stuffed my face with the pie and felt crappy and if I stuff my face with this stuff then how am I going to feel? So I turned around and just came home instead, I feel good now!!! I didn't do any exercise today :( goodnight Loosey I call it the battle inside head. I managed not to cheat last night, but I do realize that I need a back up plan for when those cravings hit. I'm thinking of trying that new Special K cereal as my last snack of the evening. It's the one I saw in a commercial w/ vanilla and almonds. I think it's 100 calories. Have you ever tried vanilla soy milk in your cereal? It's awesome. I buy the so nice brand. I also use it to make a very healthy rice pudding. Would anyone like a rice pudding recipe. It's very low fat, no sugar. I use splenda. I'll post it if someone wants it. Here's my recipe of the day. Sherri's orange cream sickle cake. In a bowl mix 1 cup of orange sugar free jello powder and 1 cup of boiling water. Mix well, then add 1 1/2 cups of 95% fat free coolwhip. Set aside. Line an 8 by 8 pan with low fat graham crackers. Take 1 large or 2 small ripe mangoes and slice them up and put them on top of the crackers. Then pour on jello mixture and refridgerate for 3 hours or overnight. Also a great dessert for company or your b-day. It will satisfy you and you only have to feel guilty if you eat the whole pan,lol. I've done that before. This recipe is also awesome with strawberries and cherry jello. We were up at 5am to do papers again and it was pouring out. At first I was miserable, but when I got home I felt really great! Have a great day! Sherrilynn |
