Lesessary...
I haven't tried the candy, but do occasionally have the Atkins bars...Some people feel even those slow the weight loss process down...so far, I haven't had a problem with that..
I know what you mean about being a "sweet nut"...Me too!! To answer your question about the cravings...yes, they do decrease with LCing..I don't crave nearly the sweets that I did before...Also, I feel my hunger is much more satisfied now...
