WHAT'S YOU WEAKNESS?
MY BIGGEST WEAKNESS DURING THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS ARE CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRIES, THEY ALWAYS HAVE BEEN. WE BOUGHT A BOX ABOUT A WEEK AGO AND I HAVE HAD ABOUT 3, BUT ONLY ONE A DAY. I KNOW IF I EAT MORE THAN THAT IT WILL MAKE ME VERY SICK. I GUESS THAT'S GOOD CONSIDERING I USE TO POLISH OFF A WHOLE BOX IN ONE SETTING!!! SO WHAT'S YOUR BIGGEST HOLIDAY GOODY WEAKNESS??
I WISH I COULD HAVE DONE THAT ALSO, BUT I ALWAYS HAVE TO PUSH MY LIMIT TO HOW FAR I CAN GO. 1 CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRY AND I'M FINE, 2 AND I FEEL LIKE MY HEART IS GOING TO BEAT OUT OF MY CHEST AND THEN I HAVE A STOMACH ACHE FOR 45MIN., AND SINCE SURGERY I CANNOT THROW UP FOR RELEIF, I HAVE TO JUST DEAL WITH IT!!
LOL @ Marty......my weakness is my peanut butter balls. They're PURE sugar and I can only eat one or two at a time or I get a SERIOUS sugar high......then I get sick!
(Ingredients....cup and a half peanut butter, BOX of confectioners sugar, stick of margarine, teaspoon of vanilla mix that together and make into little balls - refrigerate while you're melting the chocolate....then the chocolate is a bag of choclate morsels and 2 tblspn of shortnening and you dip the balls of peanut butter into the melted choclate refrigerate again....How SINFUL!
)
I had thought about making some for our gathering last week - but then realized not veryone tolerates sugars well.....
I have to make at least two more batches for Christmas presents on special request.....then my M&M cookies.....they're # 2 sinful....and I have to make about 2 batches of them as well.....
Oh - the ULTIMATE weakness.....a Sexy Santa.....and his red suit isn't a full body suit....










Rachel,
We have the same weakness
although Marty's mistletoe doesn't sound bad either
I would not attempt to even try one, I just know I'd dump!
However....
Tooter's Bariatric bytes Newsletter had a low sugar (only 1 gram of sugar per cherry!) recipe to make your own chocolate covered cherries and I will DEFINATELY try and make these!
I also make my mom's pecan lassies, like little pecan pies! They are my familiy's favorites and it just wouldn't be Christmas without them. hmmm.... looking for sugar free pecan lassies recipe as we speak!
your humming Christmas carol friend,
Barb
