If you thought this because of whatever is written on the label of the cream you bought, know that anything with less than 0.5 g carbohydrate per serving (in the US, a serving size of cream is 1 tbsp, I believe) will be listed as 0 g carbohydrate. Cream has 0.42 net carbs per tbsp. Quote:
If that's so, then butter can't be zero carbs either... confused | Butter is made by churning butterfat. The amount of lactose (milk sugar) left in it is tiny. 1 tbsp of butter has 0.00875 net carbs.

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!"
