Cold Weather Brings Cravings, Help!

In the summer I don't remember having any awful cravings.  Between Greek yogurt, SF popsicles and jello, it was easy to have sweet snacks.

But now I am struggling.  It's hot coffee/tea time of year for me, and cold sweets aren't cutting it. This is when I'd be nibbling toast or cookies.

I can't think of a substitute.  Just tough it out?

The Pantry Selections hot chocolates from mybariatricpantry.com are really good.

After hearing about them on another thread, I just tried the biscotti, protein mint hot chocolate, protein chocolate chip pancake and protein maple brown sugar oatmeal from my bariatric pantry. All were really good so I just ordered more last night. The biscotti should satisfy that craving for you. Also, the pantry selection protein bars are like candy which actually could be a bad thing.

Hi There

I have been freezing since I arrived back in Canada last week from Peru. These are helping me this week

1) Hot homemade chicken vegetable soup. 

2) Bariwise Raspberry hot chocolate. 15g of protein. I mix it with coffee for a raspberry mocha flavor

3) Diet Ocean Spray Cranberry juice. 10 calories for 250ml. heated up in the microwave for a minute.

     I also use a one litre water bottle mix half cranberry juice and half water. Add a cherry pomegranate crystal lite and heat up. A   sprinkle of nutmeg/cinnamon will give it a mulled effect if you like that 

4) Also chili. The carbs can be high so I have only 1/4 cup and add 1/4 of dry cottage cheese (highest protein lowest carb)

Hang in there.
