So far its working quite well. This afternoon I had that niggly feeling where all I could think of was going to the shops to buy a hot chocolate or an apple custard bun. But then I remembered one of Sarah Wilson's tips to eat Calamari instead of dessert. So I stopped by the fish shop and had 6 delicious crumbed calamari instead. It felt utterly bizarre to be eating something savoury at that time of the day. But it worked - I didn't feel like I was missing out and the craving passed without any mental stress.
My only concern is that if I don't move on from "Operation: Eat Fat" quickly then I will replace my sweet tooth with a fat tooth and won't have solved anything. So I'm setting a date to start the scary next step- Week 3- totally sugar-free. Next Monday.
This evening I made myself a cup of chai tea on the stove top using almond milk and my new Henry Langdon Chai Spice mix. I felt like I was nurturing myself, in just the right way.
