I have been at this 10 days, I thought I would have bad sugar cravings, but it's been for really odd things, like mustard lol. I wanted mustard so bad, but had nothing to eat it on, and had most of my calories used up, so I sat down with baby carrots and about 1/4 c of mustard lol. I've also thought of apple cider vinegar…

I've read that old fashioned oats (like in the big round Quaker containers) are better for Diabetics, because it has a lower glycemic index than quick-cooking (5 minute) oatmeal. I'm a diabetic, and use those, add some cinnamon and splenda packets. When people say "steel- cut oats", is this the same as "Old fashioned oats"?

Same here! I start of by using a 32 oz cup w/ straw (like those water pitcher mugs that they give u if your in the hospital) & it seems like I get it down quicker, plus don't have to fill up a cup a million times. To be honest I use crystal light or other calorie free packets to get all of my liquids in. Even my tea I…
