Sugar and chocolate are always my biggest problem with any weightloss plan. I usually go on a major binge and gain my weight back fairly quickly. I have noticed that this time I can hardly stand to eat more that a few bites of anything sweet the sweetness is overwhelming.

Just last night I went to DQ with my daughter and ordered an earthquake. I enjoyed the first few bites, ate the next few because over half was left, then crammed my napkin in the bowl and left the rest. Afterward I felt bloated and my head got stuffy, I was really sorry I splurged.

I really do find that I enjoy the dark chocolate now. My family even feels special when I make chocolate dipped strawberries. Apples dipped in nut butters are also very good and fruit smoothies are a better substitute for ice cream.

I was afraid of this plan too because of the sugar and coffee. Even though you did not say what problems you have I think this program should help you feel better, since it addresses the foundation of health, nutrition through whole foods.

Read the whole book and and download the online guide, then do your preparation week. This will really help you and stay linked to the web site for support. Good luck!

PS: Just peeked at your profile, seems we are neighbors, I live in NE Florida. We are also almost the same age. Crazy, huh? Chow
