Ive been staring at the lemon poundcake every morning for a week when I get my coffee..I know that mainly what I want is the texture. And lets face it, who doesnt enjoy soft sweet buttery poundcake?

So this morning, instead of my usual eggs and sausage I had a slice of low carb bread and peanut butter. And 4 strawberries. I havent had these foods in 3 months. Maybe I should more-Ive tried everythng else and havent lost in a month!

Good to know the bread and peanut butter is a good sub for that craving. And better to have more carbs in am than everning, right?

Personally Im terrified of eating the wrong things.....
All I do is look at a carb and there it is plastered to my chin.
I do enjoy a spoon of peanut butter too though....
It is the one thing at home I can run too if the cravings get to be too much.....
Keep it up....

Real sugar turns my stomach now. Give it a while being clean--will possible do the same for you. Major help when it comes to finding sugary foods attractive.

Yah, it was unusual. Cuz on the few occasions when I find myself WANTING sugar, Ill have a taste-and realize it wasnt all that-I decided its more the not having it than really craving it-and the texture of poundcake is really what I wanted as comfort food instead of the actual cake!

Ive been clean for a long time now. Really.

If it's pound cake you want...

ooooh, nice. Ill have to try this. this week the starbucks pastry disaster is averted as Im taking the train to work, but I will have to check it out when I start to feel deprived. I know what I want is the crumb and oil texture, the sweet is just kind of besides the point. I made a package of krusteez LC blueberry muffins yesterday, and the carbfreak stepchild loved them, so I had a couple and satisfied the texture craving, and got rid of them in the same batch!

I still have half a bawdy cheesecake in the freezer since...June? I think it may be time to get rid of it...
