Welcome Deb,
You'll find a lot of sweet addicts here. I know from experience that the longer I hold off ingesting anything sweet, the less my cravings will be. How about we both take it 1 day at a time. For tomorrow, I'm going to start the day with pure protein - eggs. Veggie soup with brown rice for lunch, snacks of celery sticks w/peanut butter (natural - no sugar). If I get through afternoon w/o going nuts with cravings, supper shouldn't be a problem because there's usually some lean meat & cooked veggies. Worst time will be evenings, so I'm gonna save my bowl of yogurt & blueberries & sliced almonds. Or maybe sugar free jello with fruit, which is the only way DH eats fruit.
I am making a resolution not to do any sweet baking until Thanksgiving. As soon as it gets cold, I just want to bake up a storm. Must be some reaction to having the A/C on & oven off all summer. If DH would eat more of what I bake, it would be great. He's one of those people who FORGETS the pie/cake/brownies/cookies are THERE!!!
