Refined sugar is an inflammatory, and we went pure low carb for that six months. A sugar addict? I testify it is true. Life crept back in, with CHOCOLATE, pies, bbqs, regular living... and we are not better for it. With our arthritis in full force, I'm asking why we don't value freedom of motion over the sweets...you tell me that's not addiction....(now that sounds like an admission if I ever read one, lol!)<br /><br />hang in there because it is well worth it, hugs, pokeyPokeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12546013812822816960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4344904739833956385.post-72095487437816778852011-06-08T21:50:58.496-05:002011-06-08T21:50:58.496-05:00Now that summer's rolling around there'll ...Now that summer's rolling around there'll be lots of natural sugar yumminess right?

It also has less sugar....<br /><br />And Vicki @ DottyJane is such a good Tennessee girl!!

I feel like an addict. This reminds me of giving up cigs way back when. Maybe harder.Paulettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06181665241824945247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4344904739833956385.post-74247955737597182872011-06-07T19:23:47.134-05:002011-06-07T19:23:47.134-05:00I feel your pain!

Are you doing the protein diet, or are you diabetic, or some other reason?<br /><br />ANYTHING that has carbohydrates in it has sugar. And - - - that's just about everything.<br /><br />The cake sounds good. How about you go ahead and make it, and I'll come help you eat it so you won't GET as much sugar.
