I am so grateful and thankful for all the great suggestions and encouragement. I was looking through some recipes and the Butterfinger pieces REALLY caught my eye (Butterfinger - my all-time favorite). The beauty is that you can make them any size you want, and a small piece would be enough to soothe the savage beast, but not lead to dangerous desire for sweets.
Day 1 went GREAT - and I didn't even have anything of a sweet nature other than one piece of sugar-free gum - hallelujah! I had baked chicken with a mayo/salsa "dip" along with salad and italian dressing and was completely satisfied. Didn't even night snack! A miracle in itself.
Day 2 began with scrambled eggs and bacon at a place in my building. A few months ago I tried eggs at Organics to Go in my building and it was obvious something had been added - and it tasted flour-like - yuk! I'm gonna cook up some eggs/veggies/cheese and take 'em to work to warm up in the mircowave for the next few days, along with some bacon (nitrate/nitrite free) - saves money and tastes better anyway.
Thank you thank you thank you ... again!
