Hi! I'm just a few days into phase on and had a question about a snack I put together last night. I bought fat free, no sugar added pudding and mixed my two tablespoons of natural peanut butter with it. It's super yummy and makes a great snack, but I was wondering if this is really ok for phase 1? Really taking this diet seriously so I hope I haven't screwed up already!

Welcome to The Beach.
We are not supposed to be eating ff/sf pudding in Phase I - cornstarch is the culprit. However, I'm sure you've not really screwed up Phase I. Just get right back on track by following the food list and remember your veggies and water.

BUT....you could make something that would be OK by using a bit of baking cocoa and some SplendaŽ with the peanut butter.

Darn! I guess I'll just have to hold out on those for the later stages. Thanks so much for your quick response... this website is a lifesaver for me!

Well, Lifesavers are not OK on Phase I either!

You can have this in Phase 1:

SF fudgesicle...micro wave it until it comes off the stick
Mix in your natural peanut butter

Tastes like frozen Reece's peanut butter cup ice cream

Some even mix in a dab of CoolWhip Lite or FF....I'm not a big CoolWhip user (it's a trigger food for me), but you might try it.
