Re: for those of you who have to have sweet after a meal...

We've been eating htis too, but I just realized that the Jello has asparatame, and the whipped cream has sugar

We're doing Atkins and your not supposed to really have either...

Its still a good treat

I live off SF FF Jello and Jello Pudding, but I use cool whip. Unless you're still on induction, I think the sugar/apartame and carbs is minimal and can defintely be worked into your day.
When I was doing Atkins Induction, I still had it ... just a little.

and I have definitely noticed since watching the carbs, that I no longer CRAVE sweets after a meal. It was an ongoing cycle because I also craved salty food after having sweets! The cravings are not there since I have eliminated most carbs.

Not for the low carb girls, but for WW girls, I always have my 2 point king cone or 2 point fudge bar..So good! When I know I am having dessert every night, I am not tempted during the day.

Re: for those of you who have to have sweet after a meal...

All you low carb girls should know that you should never be consuming aspartame at all on Atkins.
Aspartame sends a chemical message to the brain the same in which sugar does, therefore your body thinks it is having sugar and your insulin level will react accordingaly ( a big no no ) and use that product first for energy verse your stored fat or any other carbs/sugar or fat you may have consumed.
So what I am trying to say is NO SUGAR FREE JELLO! and def. no ASPARTAME on a lo carb diet.
