Cathy: When I used to indulge, I would eat one regular cookie. Then I committed to a healthy lifestyle and got fat-free cookies. I could eat four cookies instead of one because they were fat-free. Now, no matter what type of cookie it is, I eat four instead of one because I've taught myself that a "cookie serving" is four cookies. Weight-training for the rest of us: Training ourselves to gain weight.

I remember when Snackwells came out and they were marketed as a healthy snack. I believed it and ate more than I should have. What a crock! Better to eat one normal cookie made with real ingredients than 4 of those things!Hello Cathy clan! Susan , I’m pretty sure I gained weight on Snackwells, and I’m sure I’m not the only one!

I think one problem with “diet foods” is that they’re all sweetened. If you eat those it actually changes your tastes, so that you can’t stand eating food with a low sugar content. So – you eat more sweet stuff.
Not the best way to re-educate your dietary habits!
