Aspartame doesn't seem to effect me...yet anyway. I've also found a wonderful belgian chocolate bar that has no sugar in it. It has Maltitol instead. It is so good, made in Chase, BC, Canada. Name brand "Ross". You can find it in Health food stores and in Shoppers Drug Mart in BC. Also, the website is lowcarbdelights.com. They have, depending on the bar, from 2.3 to 3.9 grams of carbohydrates per bar.

I've strayed a bit this morning...had 1 1/2 cups of cherries for breakfast. Tis the season. I'll probably eat foods I've missed to day, in moderation. Like watermelon. That's okay though. It just makes me that much more determined, the next day
