Sweet Tooth Problem
Dear Sweet tooth problem:
Well, my husband and I have the same problem. We each eat one Power-Bar Protein
Plus Carb Select Bar (2 net carbs) a day pretty much. (Beware, they’re
expensive, $20 for a box of 15 at Costco) Sometimes we’ll have two if the
craving is really bad. I usually try to drink a big bottlel of water with my
bar and I’m filled up and satisfied.
As far as I can tell, there’s nothing bad about the bars. They haven’t affected
our weight loss at all. It was our personal choice to eat them even though
they’re not on the official induction menu. We just couldn’t live without the
sweets entirely.
We’ve also made frozen whipped cream snacks: Whip up some 0 carb 0 sugar
whipped cream. Add splenda till sweetened to your liking. Add some 0 sugar
vanilla. Freeze on a sheet of tinfoil in large dollups. They’re great snacks.
Tomorrow is 4 weeks on this WOE and I’ve lost 14 lbs. I’m really happy with the
loss and looking forward to shedding the remaining 60 in no time!
Good luck!

Congratulations on you loss. Keep up the good work. I will have to try
some of your ideas for combating my sweet tooth. I made it yesterday
without any sweets at all! I hope to do so again today. If not, I will
not let it be something full of carbs and sugar, but something with
only the 2 grams in it like so many people have told me about already.
I think I still have some of those left in the bottom of my pantry. Hmmm..
Thanks again, Deb
