That doesn't sound good to me! Aren't you supposed to eat something when you take meds anyways so you don't hurt your stomach? Wait… tylenol? That doesn’t sound good to me!

When I get cravings I love to make tea. You can get tea in pretty much any flavor you like (chocolate cream, vanilla nut, etc.), or you can have something herbal like peppermint. These teas really help w/ cravings since they're slightly sweet, plus, the warmth makes me feel full. You’re right, that neighborhood is gorgeous and very Stepford Wives-like!

Glad you got the tire fixed - I am a procrastinator when I think something is going to be difficult, and then realize I just need to get off my but and do it!

Try to make it go away but sometimes it just doesn't happen so I try just a little, enough to make me happy. Most times, a little will do the trick. One time, though, I was having a bad month and I was craving oreo cookies, let's just say that there were barely any crumbs left and no milk....Yikes. I try not to let that happen too often :-) I am a lot like Andrea. Try to make it go away but sometimes it just doesn’t happen so I try just a little, enough to make me happy.

But if I really want something after distracting myself with some water and some physical activity such as short walk for about 15 to 20 minutes, I usually have a little of what I'm craving. I have been working hard on portion control, so most of the time I can have just a little of about anything, and I'm fine. I have found if I don't allow myself a little "treat" once in a while, I tend to have issues with cravings... I try to distract myself when I get a craving to see if it will go away.
