My sweetener experiment, day one..
I decided to reduce my intake of artificial sweeteners during the day to see if it would help my evening cravings.
I drank more plain water than usual, which helped, I'm sure... I added a little extra salad at supper, but other than that, the major change was only having a diet soda AT MEALS, instead of in between, and only having a sweet food as dessert right at the end of a meal instead of in between.
I must say, I'm noticing a difference this evening. It seems easier to forgo my late-evening sweets. I am having a Fruit2O now, but have made it a point toget up and have a glass of PLAIN water whenever the thought of snacking hits. I actally feel full on the teaspoon of peanut butter I had while watching the Dr Phil special! Of course I MAY be up wearing a path to the "powder room" all night... but when I weigh in Monday morning, maybe the extra exercise will help.
