oh, my...these things are going to be my downfall. i peel the chocolate off and eat the peanutbutter. i love that damned Peanut Butter. you cant get it in a jar like that(thank goodness).

anyone have any reece's peanut butter cup eradication ideas?

i have a reciepe that I use to help with certain cravings and this one may help you. Take 1 tbsp of peanut butter and 1 sugar-free/fat-free fudgsicle. Place peanut butter in a bowl insert the frozen fudgsicle. Place in microwave for 15-30secs. Just enough to barely melt the fudgsicle. Then mix the pb and melted fudgsicle together. Serve with cool whip. - good news gives you 4-6 grams of protein and keeps the calories down.

Hope it helps.

grocery shopping online?? I bet you drive one of those HOVERCrafts to work too?? I thought Mrs. Jetson was the only one who could GROCERY shop online!! How does this work? Do they deliver, or do they gather, and you pick up? Is there a service charge? OH MY, the poor bag boys are going to be obsolete. Some of them were so darned cute.

LOL

Out here (Southern California) you can do this at albertsons.com and vons.com (vons is a Safeway brand). At Albertson's, you can pay $9.95 for delivery, or $5.95 for them to gather it for you so you can pick it up. It's really nice, and I do find it helps me not buy junk. I haven't done it much, but I can go throught he lists of things and decide what I want to buy, and then go through what it is in my 'cart' and prune out what I put in there that I really don't need, or isn't in my budget.

:confused:

hmmmmmmmmmm...i am going to look for this in my area...

Chocolate & Pnutbutter addict here..... I'm fighting my own demons...sorry

OK, I too am a Reeses addict.......Lately though when I NEEDED it, I bought the SMALL bag of reeses pieces. Split them 5 ways (btw me & my 4 kids) and ate my mini serving VERY SLOWLY loving every second of it. I figure 5 resses pieces can't be too bad. After all they were ET's favorite and look at his BMI..........

I know it's not the same, but I found something when I'm really desperate. I put a little low fat peanut butter in Cream of Wheat. I use the single serving instant made with milk. Put peanut butter in the milk. Micro 2 minutes. Stir in instant Cream of Wheat. Micro 1 more minute. This takes care of my peanut butter craving. You can top with yogurt or anything. Perhaps something sugar free chocolate.

Peanut Butter cups are my favorite.

Reese's makes sugar free mini pb cups! I found them when I found out I was diabetic...taste like regular ones! One mini kills that craving for me.

wow lianna, thanks for sharing that. i have never noticed them, but i will look for them from now on. how many calories/fat/carbs etc?

I have a receipe for a kind of Reeces square. It DOES taste like the real thing and you can leave the chocolate part off, which is unfortunate because I think there is some value in working for that little bit of peanut butter inside. Totally addictive, however I'm proud to say I haven't made it in about 5 years.

i like only the thin layer of chocolate on the top and bottom of the cup. I do not like the thick rim of chocolate on the outer rim of the cup.

oh, gosh, i am demented. wheres is vinesqueen's tough love when we need it?

lol, I'm an addict too. I make them @ home we call them peanut butter fudge.

My Grand ma taught me how to make them, she would roll the peanut butter mix into balls then on a toothpick dip them into chocolate. I only make them 1 or 2 times a year. Xmas and if we go somewhere we have to bring a desert.

My hubby cannot see a movie in the theater w/out his reeses pieces, I cant watch it w/out popcorn! lol

I bet I could change up my recipe using low fat peanut butter, splinda (sp) hmm dunno. I'm going to go eat an apple and peanut butter now

Roni, Say the following phrases 5 times every 15 minutes to reprogram your brain.

PB CUPS ARE EVIL DIET BUSTING EMPTY CALORIES!

WARNING PB CUPS ARE SATAN'S FRUIT...DON'T EAT!

CAUTION PB CUPS CAUSE OBESITY, CANCER, AND DIABETES!

Oh man. Reese's are the only candy that I really like, and they're my favorite. I haven't had one since banding. I do have a surrogate, FWIW. I add a tbl of low-fat PB to my Protein shakes. In chocolate powder it tastes Peanut Butter cup-ish, not spot on but really good. In vanilla powder it tastes like the white chocolate cups, IMO.

Next time I make a shale I'm going to try the SF PB DaVinci syrup. Mmm... can't wait...

(Ok, speaking of peanut butter & chocolate addictions, I don't really like ice cream that much, but BR has the BEST flavor, Peanut Butter Chocolate... mmmmmmmmm...)

Ya'll HAVE to stop planting all of these evil seeds in my mind.

COLD TURKEY...is how i have to go... (and i should probably EAT more cold turkey too...lol)

I do ALMOST ALL of my Groc shopping on line, On teusday mornings, in my underware ( sometimes not) I have been doing this for about a year. No screanming kids, no line, no impulse brownies in my cart. IT's GREAT, the lady that does the shopping has even got to know me and picks better produce then I do. Its time consuming at first but you add a few things to your list a week and before you know it your going down the list just checking things off. Currently it takes me about 30 min to do 2 weeks worth of shopping. The only thing I go to get is specialty Items at the health food store. ( and my albertsons will order alot of specail Items for you if you ask) and Trader Joes. Because I love trader Joes.

you should look into it its a great way to keep a clean house and for the shopping and delivery charge is 10 Bucks its well worth my money.
