Good for you! That is so hard! I'm really ...Wow! Good for you! That is so hard! I'm really proud of you. And it is amazing to see it all written down. Mark and I went back on the South Beach diet two weeks ago (no sugar, no white flour, and for the first two weeks no fruit). This morning, at the beginning of Phase II, he thought he could have some fruit juice and so slurped down a glass of some cocktail something or other. Only after he started to feel really creepy did he realize the second ingredient was corn syrup! We've definitely indulged a few times, and will continue to do so, but I feel so much better now I kinda don't want to.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and our new friend--probably not real healthy, but real good--is Dreyers' No Sugar Added Slow Churned ice cream. Not strictly South Beach, but gets us through the tough times! <BR/><BR/>So sorry about the links to your websites being FUBAR. I just fixed them (finally updated my blog!). Thanks also for your great comments about the donation question. I really appreciated the thoughtfulness of your reply. <BR/><BR/>Hope to see you very soon!Val D.
