I am on day 7 of phase one and I still seem to be craving sweet treats. Do you think I should cut back on sugar free gum, splenda, etc.? Everything I have been eating is legal... is this normal. Also, are deviled eggs with light mayo okay?

Becky-

one of the things i've noticed about my eating is that my body tends to crave opposites. so if i eat alot of softer foods, i start craving something crunchy like celery sticks. i've also noticed if i eat alot of salty foods, i start to crave something sweet. i'm sure you're doing really well on your eating plan, and following it exactly, but i'm wondering if you might be able to dial down some of the sweet cravings if you watch your salt intake. it might explain why you're on plan but still having weird cravings. just a thought...

hope
