Default Trader Joe's...

Ok, it was an evening of extreme temptation.. my husband bought me an ice cream cone and I did not partake.. that night I was offered ice cream at least 4 or 5 times.. and of course the "just this one time won't hurt you" thing.. but I know how I work.. one time is all I need to make it one more time.. and another time.. and another.. AND ANOTHER!

I sat there in bed.. my stomach oddly rumbling saying "sugar... I want.. SUGAR!" It was frustrating and had been building for at least a week or so.. I thought I was past sugar cravings but here they came!

What did I end up cheating with?

Trader Joe's Lime Fruit Floes

16 carbs from sugar..

This being said I'm proud of myself.. I had several other options that could have been totally disastrous.. and amazingly enough after I ate it I did feel satisfied.

There are still more in the fridge.. and I haven't looked at them since

I like having precooked bacon available for such emergencies. The fat and tiny bit of sweetness is perfect to solve almost any craving.
