Sylvie,
You are still kicking ass and taking names! I agree with you about overeating grapes instead of junk food. I haven't had more than two cookies in five weeks since I went to the dentist. I have had other soft sweets, but I am doing good. I went to dinner with a friend on Saturday night and had two pieces of my Quesadilla and took the rest home. I really don't have an appetite anymore but I am eating. I am still having yogurt with SoyMilk for breakfast, even though I am not hungry and I have been eating peanut butter sandwiches with about 1.5Tbsp's of peanut butter on the sandwich round bread. Dinner, has been mainly pasta, rice and veggies. I am really enjoying the potato casserole and been making different variations of it. The other night, I added broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, green beans and Southwestern corn. It came out delicious.
Hugs and have a great day,
Zimmeh

They've seriously become one of my comfort foods lately..
When i crave something crunchy, grapes work well to curb that craving..
i can wash up grapes and keep them in a bowl in my fridge - & when i crave just about ANYthing i shouldn't have, i can open my fridge and grab a handful of grapes.. And then, the craving for whatever i want passes..
i know they say too much fruit isn't good, and most days i do great with that.. But if there is a day i am crazy with cravings, i figure it's better to overeat the grapes a lil than the chips or chocolate or whatever my cravings are that day..
So, i keep a bunch washed up, and in my fridge right on the top shelf at the front, easy access.. and it's my pickin' food, my grazin' food, whatever i need at that moment.. And it's not a fruit that'll turn brown, or go bad or anything which is fab..
yaaaaaaay grapes!
