Hi again everyone. Well, I think I have things figured out a little better after doing lots more research. Carbs are much better now, and I have cut out the Starbucks lattes!!! Thanks for the information on the breve at Starbucks. I asked, and yes, they knew all aobut it. I had one and it was great. Since lowering the carbs drastically, I think I have lost another 6 pounds, so about 12 total. Seems to be working great. What amazes me through all this is that I have not had any cravings for sweets, and I do not get hungry between meals. Never before have I gone for 6 weeks without eating anything sweet, or having a craving for it.
YAY!!!!
