Sometimes your body is just yelling for something, even if it doesn't know what it is. Stay strong! You can do it.
Here's a cool thing I made for myself last night...darned if it didn't taste like strawberry cream pie!
Cut up 1 cup of strawberries, mix one cup of whole plain yogurt with 1 tsp Splenda and 1 tbl lemon juice. Chop 1/2 cup pecans. Mix all together.
Delish! I ate the whole thing as dinner, but you can divide it among two people as a dessert.
It's about 12 carbs in all, 6 carbs each for two servings. Very satisfying and not bad on carbs.

Hi Adkpam,

I hate to burst your bubble matey, but this mixture is going to "cost" more than 10 carbs. And in case you are thinking that a lot of the sugars in yoghurt are "eaten" by the cultures, I'm afraid I have even more bad news. I used to believe that too, but we now have more information about yoghurt. See this thread for details: http://forum.lowcarber.org/showthread.php?t=138905

According to Fitday, 1 cup strawberries, 1 cup yoghurt and ˝ cup pecans has 21 effective carbs.
