Been struggling tonight

[ThinLizzy]

All night just been thinking about chocolate and cakes and stuff

Have gone to bed in order to stop thinking about it.

Do these mental cravings ever really stop?

They did for me after a couple of weeks. I really wanted cake and bread in those first days it drove me mad and I nearly gave up.

Luckily though I really dont crave anything at all now

I was sat in the office today while everyone had their regular friday lunchtime fish and chips. Before I would have been first in the queue but to be honest the smell of them turned my stomach today.

I can even sit next to my partner while he eats cake and it doesnt bother me. It's not willpower I just dont fancy it anymore I'd rather have a juicy steak

I have no idea why though must be the power of the mind lol

the craving does surpass...go make a cinnamon MIM and double cream if its that bad, that will satisfy ya im tellin ya!!!!

If you crave chocolate the atkins bars are really cocoa-ey and are very satisfying, try the choc decacence or the choc orange they're both really nice and like Missy said if you're craving cake go make a MIM or a choc MIM with whipped cream on.

Hope you're feeling better soon hun x

My Boots sell the Atkins bars and the cracker bread thingies. I second the bars, although I have a major sweet tooth, after day 4 I could only manage a 1/4 of a bar as it was too sweet!

I personally like the choc chip daybreak bars for breakfast.

I struggle every day... our house has loads of treats and goodies so it can be real hard to resist. Sometimes I don't and cave in. You can see when that heppened by my sig BUT it's a lesson for me to learn and I'm trying to work out when this happens. Which was my TOTM that time. So I think I'll get some of those Atkins bars for "emergencies"

Atkins choc brownie bars are great! And I can still eat a full one lol

It takes a while for your body to adjust Lizzy, the cravings will go away eventually love.
