Hi all. I feel aweful! Low fat has been a bust so far. I started out fine, with a cup of oatmeal the first morning of low fat, but by the end of the week, I am BEGGING for sugar. I've been up in the middle of the night searching for sweets. I haven't been going over in my calorie consumption, but this sugar craving is INSANE!!! I'm not gaining any weight, but I see where this is going. It just goes to show, that for my body a calorie isn't just a calorie.
I think I am going to have to switch over to lower carb again, just so I can get this craving thing under control. I feel like such a trader!
I know that anything that has THIS much hold over my life, I need to get rid of. And because this is a lifestyle change, I need to get under control. It is amazing. I think I am truely addicted to carbs. When I am doing Low carb I don't think about food nearly as much as I do when I'm doing low fat.
OOOOH I love my sweets too. Breads, pasta's and rice, don't have as much of an affect over me as my husbands baked goods.. MMMMMMM
Does anyone else struggle with this in low fat? What are you going about it?
