Good Morning everyone!
So I know I shouldn't be checking my weight everyday, but I caved (embarassed) Good news is im down another 1.4 pounds in just 1 day!! that's exciting. It's really motivating.
Yesterday I turned down so much i'm very proud of myself. My boyfriend got Dominos and I didn't eat it even when he and his father told me it was 'so good today' boy was that hard. When I got home at night I was so hungry and there were pretzels and oreos sitting on the kitchen island (anyone that knows anything about me knows my affinity for oreos. it's so bad, i could eat a box a day) I resisted them though, I settled for a handfull of fat free shredded cheddar cheese, a slice of low fat low sodium deli ham, and a sugar free jello cup. I was full, but i was really missing my oreos!
I've been looking online for some dukan friendly deserts i found some, but i'm always afraid to try them because they sweetened with sweetner like splenda. Now don't get me wrong I love splenda, but when you get into using excess amounts, upwards of a few tablespoons, the food begins to taste awful. I feel bad wasting so many ingredients that normally would have been fine to use, but the splenda ruined it. Anyone have any good dukan friendly desert recipes that they know the splenda doesn't ruin? send them my way.
The boyfriend is off work today, he wants to go see a matinee, i think i'll be okay as long as I bring some water maybe some fat free cheese with me. Today's going to be hard. I just need to keep remembering yesterdays 1.4 lb loss. Just for today.

Are there any liquid fake sugars where you shop? They have em here and I love them. I do taste Splenda in coffee and yogurt, but I baked a chocolate cake with it and didnt notice at all. I also make fresh whip cream. I guess none of that is really Dunkan friendly, though.
ReplyDeleteI know when I got off sugar and used a lot of substitutions that made it way too easy to eat sugar again. Maybe use this time to get rid of your sweet tooth altogether. I heard we eat so many sweets everyday, everything else seems bland. But if you give your tastebuds a rest from the super sweetness maybe you're get acclimated.
Hmm... I should take my own advice there.
