[CKD] macadamia nuts

[Iowagirl]

I have found that when I eat macadamia nuts two things happen
1. I can't stop
2. I crave carbs
You'd think the price alone of these puppies would prevent me from buying them but every now and then they just sound too good (like today). Well, of course, I had to eat half the jar and then it was on to that batch of brownies I made for the kids (you know the kind with the fudge river running through it, chocolate frosting on top.....). So if I wasn't frustrated enough with my progress on the CKD (did I mention that?) - now I've had a sugar relapse. Could it be the evil macadamia nuts?

LOL...you think macadamia nuts are bad...then avoid, at all costs, the hickory smoked almonds!

But yes, I hear you...I have a tough time with all nuts these days.

I opened a jar of mac nuts yesterday and then I had to make the chocolate truffles on the sweets thread. I did stop at 1/2 a jar and 1/2 of the truffles. I really don't even like them.....they have such an aftertaste. DH even kissed me after I ate one and the taste was still on my lips. He thought they were bad too!!
But my cravings were unreal yesterday!! Not going to repeat today...I hope!! :rolleyes:

Did I mention I still have half a jar? ;) Where are the low carb police when you need them? ("Back away from the macadamia nuts, lady!")
