heeelllllpp meeeee!

[Ms. Riding Hood]

After eating carb free for a whole 7 days I broke down and had a cookie. So sue me! What is life for if you can't enjoy a cookie?!? And now I'm seriously considering binging on the rest of the cookies that I have waiting in my freezer. Aaaaarrrrghhh! Somebody help me! Tell me it's worth it to have self control.........I feel like I'm faaaallllinnnngg......:o

[Ms. Riding Hood]

p.s. Thank you for listening. I feel much better already.

I find the only thing that works is to throw them in the garbage. Better yet flush um. :eek:

[GreenKitty]

I can only offer this....EAT THEM...then start over.

[Peek a Boo]

wait another seven days and have another cookie :-)
might take awhile to get through the whole package, but that'll just make ya stronger!!

I think that is why moderation is the key! To eliminate carbs completely makes you want them even more! At least, that is how it is for me.

Stay strong! You can do it!

:eek:

Oh, and I agree with Peek down below!

Try what Frog did for Toad (in Frog and Toad and the Cookies, or something like that!). Wrap them in paper, put a string around them, tape the string (duct tape, of course), and Then put them in the freezer. If that doesn't work, feed them to the birds. Or you could just invite my dh over and he would eat them all. I used to have trouble resisting cookies, but since I married dh they rarely last long enough to tempt me!

Quick, get out of the house. Can you leave and go for a brisk walk? Might get the endorphins going and help you kick the craving.

[Tammy in Germany]

Already you are stronger than me! I'm no help...pass the cookies on to me. :D Good Luck!

[Ms. Riding Hood]

Thanks you guys. I like Peek's advice, one cookie a week. Although if I get desperate, don't be surprised if one of you finds a package of cookies arriving on your doorstep. It may be a bit mauled, and some cookies may have traces of drool on them, but do not be alarmed.

In the mean time, I will perservere. What's the A.A. saying? One day at a time....

[Mekanamom]

... and make some low-carb meringues!

Or compromise and buy the South Beach Diet oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. They probably have more carbs than you want, but they're fairly low glycemic and good for cookie emergencies. ;)
