One month past smoking; one month on diet

[ewagner]

The non-smoking thing is going pretty well. Every once in a while I'll find myself reaching for my pipe but that's a habit that will eventually go away.

I think I'm pretty lucky in the sense that during the worst part of the nicotine withdrawal, I was pretty drugged up.

However......

this dieting thing, no fats, no sodium is making me crazy.

I'd sell my Sister for a Quarter Pounder with Cheese right now.....okay, okay, okay....forget the cheese.......

Just kidding. Congratulations on what you've accomplished so far, and good luck with getting that heart back in shape. We're here to help you!!

I just like to gripe.....

I swear....sodium-free food is like chewing on your tongue!!!!

I'm using a lot of garlic powder and onion powder to add taste but still have the taste for....I dunno.....Corn-on-the-cob with BUTTER AND SALT!!!!!

3. I can help with the butter part!

Have you tried "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" spray? It's sold in the dairy section and you can spray it right on foods -- no fats or calories! I like to spray it on my popcorn and it's good on mashed potatoes, too, so I don't know why it wouldn't be great on corn-on-the-cob.
