Default TOM makes me crumble

Hey,

does anyone have any tips for the TOM? I have mine every 2-3 weeks (the doctor is supposed to be checking that out) which makes it hard, coz i have a really hard time with cravings while I'm on, trouble is the cravings usually win.

any advice would be great,

thanx

What kind of cravings (like for what food, i.e., chocolate) are you having? If it is for chocolate, have you tried the 3 minute chocolate cake? I just tried it last week, and it is SO good!!! Will use it next time TOM sends that craving-monster my way.

I am hungry--downright hungry all the time! Then like pregnancy, everything makes me sick to my stomach too--talk about a double barreled shotgun! LOL

I get cravings when I am PMSing, I feel like I could eat a 5 gallon bucket of chocolate anything! I try to curb cravings by tossing almonds with some splenda and cinnamon and toasting in the skillet with a little butter. Sometimes I break down and buy some SF chocolates but the side effects are not pretty. I usually get the Russel Stover Toffee squares which they now have in a white choc coating. It is delicious, I only buy the candy bar style pack tho so I don't eat the whole bag

Debby - what is the 3 Minute Choc.Cake? I have a tough time with TOM. It comes with no rhyme or reason. After 40, it does what it darn well pleases. I have had the flow issue addresses by my OBGYN already but the hormones go crazy at times and I feel like a bottomless pit. It hits without any warning. I am trying to get it under control. This month I am sticking with my plan and drinking my water.

Glo,

Here's the link: Three Minute Chocolate Cake
I really liked it, so I recommended it to my mom. She wasn't crazy about it. We're all so different, aren't we? Anyway, it's worth a shot for you to give it a try. Before I tried this, I was mixing cream cheese, cocoa, DV syrup, and a little cream and kind of making a quick mousse kind of thing. But, I like the 3 minute choc cake much better! Yum! :fork:

Let me know what you think.

Debby

The recipe looks great. I just need to get some almond flour and I will try it.
