My first week out of treatment it was nearly a lb of Peanut M&M's - was not a big sweets fan myself for the same reason.

Now my youngest daughter (5yo) and I have M&M time together where we guess the color befor reaching into the cup. A bag will last us about 5 days now and is one our special times together each day.

Am I alone in this?

I'm craving a hot fudge sundae right about now. Can you say jelly belly...where's Richard Simmons when you need him. God bless though...

Enjoy the sweets Reset, its way better than the alternative.

I am all about different types of candy now.

I think it has something to do with bringing my inner child back to the surface

I had a HUGE Wendy's frosty today. When I drank, I didn't even like ice cream or much candy...Trying to substitute the sweets with oranges, grapes and strawberries.....so much to work on

I used to like salsa, chips, salt, salt, salt, then I wouldn't eat at all, just drink, now as a sober man I LOVE chocolate, cookies, candy bars, Hershey's syrup, Hershey's kisses, ice cream, brownies, I've gained some weight, but...it's a better life.
