Something about your snacks. We are supposed to eat only when hungry or when 6 hours have passed since our last meal. Are you sure 3 tbsp of heavy cream are the best way to satisfy your hunger? And are you really hungry when you have that cream or do you just like cream?
Instead of cream, you could have a wedge of cheese for example (but make sure you stay within 3-4 oz per day). Or some veggies with dip. Or meat...

"The truth is that temptation lurks everywhere, unless you deny yourself a social and working life and the attendant pleasures of eating out. I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
