That feeling didn't let up for about 6 hours. After my healthy dinner my sister and I were discussing ways to deal with this craving. Both of us tend to be emotional/stress eaters and we had just finished an outing with the boys that was very taxing, to say the least.
I finally bought a dark chocolate bar that is 70% dark chocolate. Theo's brand with salt and almonds in it. One piece had 3 grams of sugar in it and it was well worth it - craving handled. That brought my total sugar count to 12 grams for the day.
I'm hoping that in a few days as my body adjusts to less and less sugar that these cravings will also subside.
In the meantime, I'll try to link to some other blogs and websites that I find interesting and informative. Here is one for today, the author's name is Andrew Wilder and I like what I've been reading so far. His latest post involves eating in moderation and balance in the modern world.
