The only sugar-free stuff I'm going to try to tolerate is sugar-free licorice. I ordered some from Licorice International so I could give it a try and, if it tastes good, send some to Larry Lyons, too. Should be here in a couple of days.
I'm really not rushing the diet. I hit plateaus here and there, but I eventually break through and go lower. I just got some old jeans out of storage and they fit me again! I mainly concentrate on keeping the blood sugar down. I'm starting a new regimen of exercise because I need to reduce the fat stores that absorb so much of my insulin. So the little drizzle of Tupelo honey tonight was a special treat, and not one I can repeat often. I don't know... I might try the sugar-free Jello. I always loved the regular stuff as a kid -- especially raspberry. Okay, I'll try it and let you know. Thanks for the tip. Can't do the high fat stuff, though. Funny you should mention ricotta, though; I'm going to try making some from scratch soon. I'll use the whey I recover from making goat cheese.

How's the diet going anyway? I do the high fat/high protein/low-carb thing 5 days/week so some of these ideas you probably won't like (ya know, due to the massive amounts of chemicals) but for what it's worth, here are some of them. * sugar-free jello. An old stand by, boring, but surprisingly satisfying. * calorie free Walden Farms anything: jams, syrups, chocolate sauce, etc. * High-fat "pudding": take some full strength ricota (4%), add in a little calorie free chocolate sauce and blend with an immersion blender til smooth. That's tasty! * I also do peanut butter with the cal-free choc sauce. So, yeah, they all sound yucky, but if you're on a fat-adapt diet they do the trick! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:255437 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
