Well, thank you all for your comments. You know, if I can't be exactly sure what is in it, then I'm not going to eat it. ('ll give them to Monster .. my cat )

I kinda like the idea of pure things going into my body. 3 packet of splenda (which is made from sugar anyway, and 1 decaf coffee per day will be my only non natural indulgence). The liver (major fat burning/processing orgam) will be much happier without the artificial stuff.

The bushfires are still out of control. 15,000 firefighters from all over Australia here in NSW now, and another 100 degrees scorcher shaping up for today (morning 1 January here). We all need to do a rain dance.

Happy new year all, I am going to be much lighter and healthier at the end of this .. I promise myself.
