Resisted temptation

I'm sitting at home with an intense craving for something sweet. DH brings home chocolate fudge and a cheesecake last nite! I know they are sitting right in my kitchen...the temptation is killing me! Then I remembered that I had made cholate protein popsicles in the freezer. So I grabbed one and ate it--98 calories 11 grams of protein and NO GUILT!! Sweet craving satisfied!

Thanks Tammy! You will be as strong--just have alternatives available so you don't eat the crap.

I hope I like the alternatives. I tried to make protein ice cream to just try it and I didn't like it. :-( Maybe my taste will change after surgery.

Awesome. My co-workers brought a Coldstone Chocolate Cake for me for my birthday...not quite a month post op...yeah, they thought because it was ice cream and melts, that I could have it...very sweet of them, and it's the thought that counts. Proud to say, I resisted the temptation...It was still in the freezer 3 weeks later....I took it home to the parents to let them enjoy my birthday cake!
