    For emphasis, preferable to the alternative ALL CAPS choice ;)
    I was hoping he'd edit to add something logical.

    Do you engage in wishful thinking often?

    It was a hope ... not an expectation.

    Today is my first day of sugar detox, if u will. I'm dropping my coffee, which I add tons of sugar and lite cream. AND I'm dumping all diet sodas.

    If you're truly "detoxing " from sugars, avoid fruits and vegetables ... then find a way to eliminate the sugars your body creates on its own ... otherwise it isn't a detox.

    We have Katie Couric to thank for calling it a "detox".

    I have never, ever liked her. And now this is all her fault? Great, just great.

    I have tried this and it does work but eventually you have to bring sugar back into your life. I just think anything in moderation works best.

    Fruits are my source of sugar these days. I've cut out chocolates and sweets and now I just take one spoon of brown sugar or unprocessed honey in my tea and eat a few grapes and an apple or banana everyday and that does it for me.

    It's nice when these sugar threads inevitably turn into sweet positive vibes!

    You need sugar to survive... And, I just leave it to my liver and kidneys to detox. After all, there's a few hundred thousand years behind their successful design.

    Just wish the engineers had been a little less obsessed with that, and worked on a better design for the female reproductive system.

    What?

    Yes I want to stop for a bit of refined sugar and reduce the amount of extra sugar get to a whole food diet. Not all sugar. Sugar is just so bad for us and we aren't meant to have as much as I have been eating.

    do you have a medical condition that makes you sensitive to sugar?

    If not, then there is no reason to avoid it.

    Agreed.

    It was inevitable. This whole thread has been about 101 Courics of pure *kitten*.
