These cookies are OK. The first one I had I could barely stomach, but I'm getting use to them now. They definitely do make you feel full though! I substituted Splenda for the sugar to cut down calories. I'm going to add another banana next time to see if it makes it any better.

I'm a little concerned about this recipe. According to Dr. Siegal, this is not his recipe. The following link should explain. http://thyroid.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?site=http://www.thyroid%2Dinfo.com/dietnews/5apr.htm%236

Amazing cookies. With these changes, there are 75 calories per cookie: add 1/4 tsp more cinnamon and 1 Tbsp more cocoa. Add 1/2 tsp ground cloves and 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce. Use Splenda baking blend instead of sugar. With a small ice cream scoop, the recipe always makes 28 cookies for me. I eat 6 of these a day (plus a beverage with each one) and 750 calories of other food, and the scale gives me a new, better number almost every day. I'm never hungry. This is a diet I can stick with for as long as it takes. Even after I reach my goal weight, these cookies will be my snack of choice. I keep some in my purse at all times.
