I really don't think the idea of this WOL is to NEVER eat fruit again. . .first of all it was my favorite thing I added after induction. . .and once I lose this weight and I will. . .my WOL will include carrots and apples and sweet pototoes and lentils and red kidney beans. . .but in moderation and with protien. . .and i am thinking this WOL after weight loss can handle an occational trip to the dessert cart. . .just be aware of the effect on the body and be prepared to wean it off the sugar for the next week. We are addicts. . .can you just taste a little and not have the monkey on your back? redawn
