    Mmmmm ... I love love love love cheese ... but it hates me. It stops up my works for days if I eat it and I bloat up like a big old gassy balloon. (maybe too much info but you get what I mean right?) Why oh why can't it return my affections? :sad: Why? Anyway. If it doesn't have an adverse effect on your system and it's within your calories then enjoy. I'm so jealous ... but enjoy.

    Nothing wrong with low fat cheese! Keeps me full for a long time!

    I have never liked Dairy very much ever....................

    I notice now that I am low carbing that I do like a little dairy.

    I can tolerate a bit of butter when I am cooking
    I love yogurt now, only eat full fat versions (Mountain High and Fage Total)
    I can tolerate Parmesan, Hoffmans Ultra Sharp Cheddar and smoky cheddar, and American cheese from the deli.

    I like ice cream, only if it is home made...............

    I LOVE bleu cheese on a salad. It's very pungent, so you really only need like a tablespoon or so to feel like you are really splurging. I have to stay away from cheeses like cheddar or harvarti because I could probably sit down and eat a half a pound if given the opportunity! :wink:

    Cheese is a good source of protein, but it usually has a lot of fat, so just be careful on the portion. Actually measure how much you eat and plug it into your food diary to see the calorie AND FAT totals. I did this once and was surprised how much fat I was consuming in only a couple of ounces!

    I looooooove cheese. I just switched to either the Babybell light (in the little wax rounds) at 50 calories eac or the laughing cow light swiss (spreadable wedges) at 35 calories each. I also drink a lot of skim milk.

    Have your cheese, just watch the fat and calories! :happy:

    THANX. good to know its not just me.. I eat about an ounce a day ( an 8 oz block lasts a week when I have a little everyday) I do of course put it in my food diary and I very rarely go over in calories, never over in fat the only other fattening thing I eat is eggs for breakfast. I do go over in protein though, which I am kinda thinking is not a bad thing. :smile:
