Don: I didn't write this to sound scary or anything. Just to say that IF my BIL had done what the docs told him, He'd still be with them, so do as I say, NOT as I do, and listen to the docs LOL.. Chuck -Original Message- From: Chuck Alexander Sent: Thursday, October 10, 2013 2:48 PM

Thanks Tony and the rest. I missed the FFF show in W. Yellowstone because of this development. I’m dealing with it OK for now, but I haven’t had to travel yet. My goals are to get in better shape, lose the excess weight, and get off the 3 per day ‘orange pen’ injections. Sad part is I just

Tony, thanks. But...what’s the point of living for a Cajun if he can’t have spices? LOL Time to plant me then. All the stuff they gave me for ‘foods’ are OK, but they are only ingredients, not real menu items. I measure how much of each I’m allowed, then combine them in a pot, make something

I use stevia in anything I want sweet. I have the powdered and liquid. Not sugar, but it's better than nothing. I eat lots of 'carbs'. Funny thing is that true carbohydrates may or may not count as diet 'carbs'. My choices are carbs/lean-meats/non-starchy veggies/fats/free items. If I don't

There is a product called FruitSweet. Is a cold evaporated fruit blend. Generally, one serving is a fruit exchange. I use this product at work for desserts. I would most definitely check with your doctor before using as it is fructose. Our membership loves the desserts made with. Even the ones
