MsRriO,

Your diet sounds good. The worst thing on it is the fake coffee creamer. Real butter and animal fats are good for the brain, especially pork. Don't try to substitute processed vegetable oils for animal fats. Zylitol is OK but the Stevia is better. Monk Fruit sweetener (in Splenda's natural sweetener formula) is OK too. Coconut oil is also good for the brain.

I hope you know that dark chocolate is a health food. I like it too. Some good sweets are better at satisfying hunger and a sweet tooth than non-sugar sweeteners. I have a 80 calorie (2 pieces) Heshey's Dark Chocolate for my fix.

Little indulgences help us feel satisfied. Just don't over do it.

My best to you.
