Damn!!!! I hope you had your LG.

BTW - As of Sunday no more these:

Soda
Sweenter of any kind

That means no crystal light or s/f jello. Nothing with artificial sweetner or carbonation.

Soon it will be coffee.

Rocco32 · 03-18-2004, 10:45 AM

I've got the LG!

4 serving yesterday. TP and Avant helped me out and rushed me a bottle.

I NEVER drink soda's and the only sweetner I've had is Splenda. Can I still have that? The only thing I drink is water (and protein, LG, and ICE in water!

)

**IainDaniel** · 03-18-2004, 10:45 AM

I know I am so mean!

But I just love my Diet Rootbeer

No sorry, No more splenda.

Sorry Rock - No more Splenda.

Iain - I'd never deny it

**IainDaniel** · 03-18-2004, 11:09 AM

Sweetener's, I think the reasoning behind it, is even though the actual product doesn't induce insulin, your mind will cause a slight insulin release thinking that this is an actual carb source.

Correct me if I am wrong Jodi

**Jodi** · 03-18-2004, 11:13 AM

Yes, that's the majority of it. Another reason is because the packets contain maltodextrin and dextrose and even a little at this point is a

Another thing is that things are going to get tougher and tighter and sugar cravings will be going through the roof soon. So by cutting out sweetner it will help crave less. Anything sweet, even artificial, will keep the cravings going.

**IainDaniel** · 03-18-2004, 02:45 PM

Ok Jodi, you got me thinking now. What about supps that use a sweetener. ie Protein powder ? Or Ice or Vendetta?

**Jodi** · 03-18-2004, 02:53 PM

Rock isn't on Vendetta. ICE is fine to keep. The protein powder will be going away soon as well.

6 meals all real food soon.

**IainDaniel** · 03-18-2004, 03:00 PM

Ouch! Sorry to let you in on this secret a little early Rock!

That means no more 4 and 5 PP shake days Rock

**Jodi** · 03-18-2004, 03:05 PM

Ummmm, yeah, thanks Iain. I was kinda waiting to break the news to him privately next week.

Well it would have been posted I'm sure. But when you need to tell someone that is dieting that your about to take away 66% of their food supply, things could get ugly

Rocco32 · 03-18-2004, 04:18 PM

WHAT!!!!!! HOLY HELL! HOW DO I LIVE AND SURVIVE THEN??!?!

Rissole · 03-18-2004, 04:43 PM

Jodi, do you think that Chromium is ok to help cravings?
