Hi everyone,
I just love my puddings and wonder if a light pudding could be part of a meal (or is that pushing it?)

I'm new here, so I may be off base, but one of the things I was thinking of incorporating into my N days so I could more consistently eat breakfast was baked custards. My recipe is very low in sugar, and is mostly eggs and milk. Sugar on cereal is considered okay, so I thought the custards might be all right as well (about 2 teaspoons of sugar). (I'll save the chocolate custards for the S days! ) The only other sugar I'm keeping on N days is the teaspoon of sugar per mug of tea, twice a day. This is a HUGE change from my regular habits of cookies, chocolate, etc., in a perpetual graze from morning till night, so I guess I am not too worried about it at this level. But I am open to correction!
Peace, Valerie

Hmm...
Try not having puddings as part of your meal and only enjoying them on the weekends for the first 21 days.
If you can't live without them more frequently (2 days is a lot of pudding!) then anything with reasonably low sugar in small amounts might be ok for you. This is different person to person.
For me, I really have to be strict the first 21 days (I'm on my 2nd try right now after a big move). If I let myself have one, I let myself have 2 soon... and that's no good!

I agree. The less sugar the better Monday through Friday. I don't react as much to straight sugar as I do to starches. If I have a bagel for breakfast even a whole wheat bagel with peanut butter, I am starving within an hour. Pasta does the same thing. But I can have a small dollap of vanilla yogurt on my fruit in the morning with no ill effects. I think in general sugars and carbs are a call that has to be made on a personal level. Consider your goals and whether it helps you achieve them. Probably didn't directly answer your question but food for thought. (hey, food for thought is very, very low calorie!!!)
A lot of growing up happens between "it fell" and "I dropped it."
I wouldn't have the pudding during the week, even if it's low in sugar it seems too desserty not to lead to more. It's not so much the pudding in itself as what it might lead too by blurring boundaries. But it's your call. I'd decide one way or the other so you don't agonize over it every time.
