Doll, the cravings WILL go away. Pretty soon you'll start craving things that are good for you. When that happens, eat them - in moderation. If I get a bit hungry in the middle of the afternoon, I'll grab a slice of smoked cheddar. Just one slice. Or eat a couple of olive-oil drenched artichoke hearts.

After a couple of weeks the thought of sweets will make you sick.

You guys are all inspiring me. I just got home from the grocery store...boy was that hard. I did it though, and didn't buy a single thing I shouldn't have.

I have to do it this time. My husband has been diagnosed as Type 2 and, as I mentioned, he's doing well on a Sugar Busters type diet. His diagnosis was a real wake-up call. We are only 30 years old, so now is the time to do something about our health/eating habits.

Thanks again to all of you :)

It's amazing how overwhelmingly sweet the sugary foods taste after you go on the low-carb diet. Hubby & I eat sugar-free yogurt (Fred Meyer/QFC/Kroger), and once we bought a standard yogurt by mistake. As soon as we opened the container we could smell the sugar molecules wafting up. Yech!
