I must confess .....I go to McDonald's all the time........they have the cleanest public bathroom!!!!....the smell of the food though is awful...lol

Am I the only one who absolutely can't stand the taste of that fake sugar?
Have tried it again and again and just can't make myself like it or any products I taste with that stuff in it.

Try Stevia. It is better than Splenda and it's natural. I can't stand Splenda..it's,a chemical and it's nasty.

Thank you so much, I appreciate that! I want this so bad and I'm very excited to see he new me, so giving up is gaining in my eyes.

I dunno, can I trust a public bathroom destroyer?

I kid.. I'll give it a try, I actually saw it in a certain area of the store with a number of other substitutes. I think it was the baking aisle of all things.

Lol. Just make sure you get real stevia and not the blend or truvia.

Also, you can find these 2 movies on Netflix. They are great and you will find them an immense help in looking at food differently. HUNGRY FOR CHANGE & food MATTERS.
I promise you will enjoy them. Watch Hungry for Change first.

Also "Super Size me" I think it's called. It turns you off mcDonalds

[K_aane 356]

Oh yeah..supersize me is super disgusting!!! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Anejo for Mexican food in Calgary - they make the guacamole right at your table and it's absolutely the best! That'll be my treat once in a while after my surgery :-) As you probably gathered, I'm in Calgary too. My VSG won't be for another 8-11 months...

i used to be just like you... then I got type 2 and had no choice. I got used to it after a few months and now I use it in anything I would have used sugar in. Some things I have just gotten used to eating unsweetned, ice tea is one.

I thought I was broken up for good with some things but I had a one night stand with a bowl of Golden Grahams tonight

Now that I have my surgery date I have been struggling with thoughts of should I have one last taste of some things that I know need to be off the menu.

I can sympathize with you.

I had two months of that thinking. I was not kind to January and February, let me tell you. But I've been doing my low carb for two and a half weeks and lost fifteen pounds...then those delicious little squares happened to me. I'm ashamed. But, tomorrow's a new day and I'll get back on track. I think my calories and carbs have been way too low anyway, so this may not have been such a bad thing. It's good to confuse the body every now and then..keep it guessing.
