Hi all, Well I'm proud to say that 4lbs are gone in just 4 days! I didn't want to weigh myself so quickly but I felt good! my headaches have almost disappeared and my pants feel a teeny bit looser.
thanks for all your support.
I get more encouragement here than i do from my own family!

Yes Thanks! I was baking all yesterday afternoon and tried and failed a lot of things. but that OK. my kids enjoyed helping me and they were reading Doug's book with me..so it made them aware of what can happen when there is to much sugar. They loved the little pics. Let's hope I can convert everyone! Also, Headache's is that normal? and I feel soooo tired. I'm thinking it was the carbs and extra sugar in  my coffee's that kept me going.
thanks!

General Discussion / stevia powder to extract.
« on: February 26, 2012, 03:57:19 PM »
Hello everyone, my husband and I just came back from whole foods and I purchased the powder and liquid extract of stevia. what I'm wondering is conversion. I've looked on the websites and it tells me conversions with regular sugar. I am getting antsy so i figured i'd write. if a recipe calls for let's say 7 packets of stevia, how many teaspoons would that be? also how many drops or teaspoons of extract? would appreciate your help!
and thanks

MY goodness! I'm so excited! I finished the book this morning. I'm eating breakfast right now and enjoying it. I know what you mean about the little figure and your face placed in it? I play on pogo a game website and you have your pic and a cartoon body and it's funny, It really looks like me with the hair and dark eyes except for the nice body and I said the same to myself..I wish I looked like that! I do have a question. I've been going through my pantry and reading my labels..some of the carbs are much higher than the sugars? should I figure out how many teaspoons of sugars I'd be eating by dividing into the carbs or sugars? I hope I'm making myself clear.
example: peanut butter has 7 carbs but only 3 sugars per serving.
thanks for your help!

Hello Everyone, I'm cyn- I have been struggling with my weight since I weighed my self at the age of 8 and saw that I was 80lbs!! It's been a battle ever since. You name it I've done it. I even had a lap band. that's OK for awhile then like everything else I find away to eat and gain. I saw FTS at Barnes and Noble in January. The one thing that grabbed my attention was the big writing!I love that. So easy to read. couldn't afford it at the time..It's been in my head for weeks. Today on a snow day my girls and I went to the bookstore and there it was. I didn't even think- just grabbed it and paid for it. Now I'm questioning myself as usual. Another way to eat? I'm excited though ..something inside me is telling me this time it's going to work..I hope. I see my horrible habits rubbing on to my girls. They learn bad habits from the one who buys the food. I'm all Italian and we comfort with food, ALWAYS. So here we go again. God be with me. I hope I change my ways.
thanks for listening :)
good luck to everyone
