Unhappy stupid day-after-easter-.

CHOCOLATE...ALL over the house- those half eaten bunnies on the arm of my sofa ( don't ask) are calling ever so insistently. just a nibble" they are saying. But I'm strong, I will hold out! ( at least until I can get my husband to pick me up some good dark chocolate ( at least 70% cocoa) on the way home) Easter was fine- but the left over kids chocolate is starting to drive me crazy!- just for the record- we actually minimize the easter treats- the grandparents don't. I forgot to mention the Laura Secord eggs....

30 minutes 'till supper...drinking yet more green tea.....30 minutes since tomato-avocado- etc... salad......

Try eating a salty snack like pickles many people swear by this trick to help with sweet cravings!

I once made myself sick as a teen by eating too much Laura Secord egg at easter..that one wouldn't be a problem for me. Far too sweet! it's the little foil covered eggs that are my worst temptation!

I know what you mean about the granparents buying too many eggs! Our house looks like a chocolate shop!

Enjoy a couple of squares of dark chocolate later x

PS I agree that eating a pickle really helps. Another ADBBer mentioned it's because the body can't recognise the difference between sweet and sour when it comes to satisfying cravings so either will do.

Stay strong! You are more powerful than the chocolate bunnies

I have so much chocolate in the house right now, its sick, and if I wasn't on Atkins, there would be hardly any left...so thank you Dr. Atkins. I have 3 kids, its their choccy.....

However, I did indulge possibly a little too much in the delicious cheesecake I made with splenda instead of sugar....oh yeah, its all gone now. I am on rung 2, and I keep calling it (it my head) the cheesecake rung.
