[QUOTE="AloeSvea, post: 1717547, member: 150927"] [FONT=Arial]Yes, it's a more than a bit of a ****** when the sweet cravings come (for me it is 'back' - definitely, my sweet tooth is always sitting there dormant and can spring back into action at a moments notice!). And like above posters, I deal with it with a combo of fasting, and getting into the kitchen and baking up favourite old keto/LCHF recipes, or trying out a new one, and using my trusty stevia to deal with the desire for sweet. The baking can sort me out for a week ahead no worries. Then I can progress to some lovely fat bomby almond butter snacky thing. I have a snack in the afternoon, most every day not fasting or doing some experiment. My homemade keto/lchf cookies are so much better BG wise (In that the rise is minimal me being in control of the indgredients and all) than my favourite atkins bars (which sadly do raise my BG levels. I am trying to pretend they don't!) In very hot weather (as it is NZ at the mo') homemade ice cream, again sweetened with stevia, does a lot for cravings for sweet. After a couple of weeks I can go back to feta cheese and salami and cheese 'pizza' snacks, and nuts without much ado, for quite a long time. But it is easter coming up, so - yeah! Better make some more of my cacao and peppermint natural-flavoured cookies with stevia sweetened chocolate bits in them.... all in prep for looking at wall-to-wall old favourites from the dark becoming diabetic past! Sigh. [/FONT] [/QUOTE]
