Very DEPRIVED! Sometimes I think it's so unfair that I am diabetic. Carbs are comfort food and doing without them is cruel punishment!....

Number 3, 4 at what I would LOVE to eat daily although I know if I ate them and even high fiber, I would be as large as the White House with Expansion plans daily, the White House building I mean. I am not nearly as much bothered by mushy fries since they aren't as yummo and using the low sugar Ketchup with them is so very yummo. I love to bake the Tator Tots in the oven, I eat way too much of them when I can get them, but my mom has an electric stove and the price of Electric is a problem since she needs to use the AC often.

Touche, Lesa

I LOVE bread too...especially since I can't have it. I eat whole wheat or rye every now and then, but I miss Sunbeam Old Fashioned.

Ice Cream!

The list goes on and on!

I certainly feel as you all do --on both sides..Yaay Lesa!! On the one hand, I wish I could choose to eat healthy food..and on the other hand, I was made to eat healthy (was not y choice but it is working for me) with the diabetes and have lost so much weight (and I needed to) but sometimes just wish I could "splurge as desired for a minute". My meals are limited by diabetes and extensive allergies and intolerances..so food is not something I look forward to--I eat now because I have to... But it's been only 3 months and maybe I'll get past this feling--Ya think? :) lol

WOuld love to quickly grab a sandwich this morning and sip on something loaded with sugar, but instead, I'll cook something balanced and healthy and drink water..Yep, it's Monday!! lol

(Meant to specify that it would be a fried sausage sandwich with cheddar or something like that).

It's so hard to "do what we should do" every day! It does get easier I guess, but sometimes I get the worst cravings! Did anyone else splurge on a little Halloween candy? Was I the only one? Chocolate is a big weakness for me!

Dark Chocolate is a weakness along with something I haven't eaten in too long, Tator Tots baked.

Slow down guys - you CAN have all that you mention - but unfortunately, only occasionally. But just think of how much more you appreciate that sandwich when you do have it.
