Wow this is great everyone. I do wish I didn't like sweets but they are definitely my downfall. I love anything sweet. I have tried doing small portions of food I eat. But it's those snacks after dinner. And it's like if I have something salty then I want something sweet. Crazy cycle I go through. Then there are nights I eat dinner and I'm full so no snack after dinner. I'm diabetic and need to stay away from sweets but they always call my name. All I can do is keep trying. 😄 If anybody has great sweet snacks that are horrible for me let me know. And I hate, hate cool whip. Unless it's completely frozen in an dessert of some sort.
For me I'm not big on sweet's either I don't do any baking it's been several years since I baked anything so if I have any sweets I'd have to buy something which is very seldom when I gave up sweets years ago I also lost my cravings for them I do buy single serving size of something if I want it so when it's gone it's gone literally I would rather have protein veggies or a salad to eat or Soups I mainly have broth soups I avoid anything creamy
Eat vegetables they are better than bread and pasta you can still enjoy Thanksgiving and Christmas
I can relate well to what you just posted. I have never been big fan of sweets either. But when it comes to TG dressing, meat, rolls, etc........too much. Sushi would be just fine for me also. But one good thing is my family now...second generation all eat much healthier and slimmer than the family I grew up with. Mom and both grandmas made lots of southern style foods full of sugar,carbs and fats. I have learned also to help control calories is just take smaller portions and no seconds. I divide leftovers for meal preps now. Have a wonderful day.
I love apples and carrots and a lot of fruits and vegetables
How does everyone get back on a diet after a holiday weekend? I did terrible
