What about Fat Free Sugar Free Pudding

As a new person to Phase 1 I keep coming up with more questions and here is one more. Can we have F/F S/F instant pudding. The box shows that it is 6 gms total carbs, 0 grams sugars and fats. I know that we can have skim milk and if i could have some pudding, it would be a real treat. I make the "free" jello all the time and it gets me thru some tough times. Thanks. in STLReminder: The South Beach Diet is not low-carb. Nor is it low-fat.

Thickeners are usually made with flour or cornstarch. Both send sugars levels up quickly. My grandfather is diabetic and can't have them. He had to stop eating at Chinese restaurants because all of his favorite dishes had cornstarch.

What's wrong with the thickeners? And what are they called? Thanks!

I'm not really sure why or what they are called. I just know they aren't allowed until phase II. Carol

They are derived from corn and tapioca, according to the box in my cupboard.

I tried the fat free sugar free during my first week on Phase I. I

knew it probably wasn't legal in Phase I but I got it anyway.

I suffered from major carb cravings for 3 days afterwards. I had to

stay on Phase I for an extra week to get back on track.

Just my 2 cents. :-)
