Yes, I tend to agree. I am really trying to kick the artificial stuff. I have been using it for so long, so it is kind of tough. I am trying to shop more organic and fresh fruits and veggies.....

Ms. Sorensen, I usually go over on carbs....from whole grains that I am eating. I am trying to concentrate more on proteins. I never eat cookies or drink soda. On the weekends I occassionally may have sugar free ice cream. Thanks to all for your imput. I will just have to "ignore" the fruit sugars on my diary since I know…

It is good to have this sense of community and support. We all have been are are going thru the same struggles. Only we can understand. I have been teaching a cardio kickboxing class for the past several years and I love to seen the new ones start, and if they stick with it, the progess they make. It is also great to have…
