He taught Geography 101 and there was a Casablanca trivia section on one of our exams (not extra credit; the answers really counted!).Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742511177719890698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743655253913703801.post-19431791125294944582009-04-03T08:53:00.000-07:002009-04-03T08:53:00.000-07:00Thanks for commenting on my blog and I am so glad ...Thanks for commenting on my blog and I am so glad to find yours. You are truly inspirational and your advice is really helpful too. <BR/><BR/>I've decided to start with a week of no sugar, since that seems more manageable. Baby steps, right? :)<BR/><BR/>Thanks again!<BR/><BR/>xoxo<BR/>NinaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17325389741558360094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743655253913703801.post-85945384879201666692009-04-02T20:25:00.000-07:002009-04-02T20:25:00.000-07:00Fair Weather Runner-Oh, why did you have to mentio...Fair Weather Runner-<BR/>Oh, why did you have to mention caramel?! That is one thing that I have not been able to find naturally sweetened. I miss that sugary, buttery flavor.<BR/><BR/>I'm in the same boat. Gorge or abstain. I'd rather not deal with those gorges anymore!<BR/><BR/>Simply Gluten-Free-<BR/>Thanks!<BR/><BR/>Lori-<BR/>I would be surprised if someone didn't like this ice cream. I've even tested it on people who eat white sugar regularly and so far it has had nothing but rave reviews!<BR/><BR/>Kim-<BR/>I would love to be here for you as you begin your lifelong journey without sugar. At some point you will wonder why you ever ate sugar. I remember those times I would stuff my face with sugary no-no's trying to fill the emotional void. It's bad news. <BR/><BR/>Going without sugar has a sort of Zen quality to it. You are forced to deal with situations/feelings instead of drowning them in milkshakes and so forth.<BR/><BR/>My main tip for you before you begin to go without sugar is to STOCK UP ON NATURALLY SWEETENED goodies! This will make a world of difference. Keep 10 pints of this coconut ice cream around and never let yourself run out of naturally sweetened items in your kitchen. <BR/><BR/>Beware, however, that even naturally sweetened items contain calories and some people have a tendency to overdo it with them, too. <BR/><BR/>I'm excited for you! If I can do this, YOU can!My Year Withouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17290085498074393110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743655253913703801.post-52519221048201476902009-04-02T18:16:00.000-07:002009-04-02T18:16:00.000-07:00Oh man, i need that ice cream.

The nearest place I can buy it is about an hour away...so I'll have to go with a cooler and some dry ice and stock up.<BR/>I am going to go for...well, I think forever without sugar. I am so extremely addicted.<BR/>you may remember, I went 6 weeks without sugar...well, after the 6 weeks, I fell right back into old habits. I eat sugar for emotional reasons. It would make me sick to my stomach, but I kept thinking I needed/wanted it. I just can't keep doing it.<BR/>So, I will be coming here for lots of support as I embark on this sugar free journey.<BR/>Any thoughts on making fruit jam without sugar?Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13652588913103400105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743655253913703801.post-56392823231750813952009-04-02T13:41:00.000-07:002009-04-02T13:41:00.000-07:00Wow I haven't seen this ice cream, but I'm going t...Wow I haven't seen this ice cream, but I'm going to have my eye out for it.

I guess I have had a love/hate relationship with sugar off and on. My version of 'limit' and 'moderation' are hot and cold. I either gorge or abstain all together. I am addicted to caramel machiattos, that is a constant! I've done one 'cleanse' and by the end of it my cravings were gone. So I don't know, good question.<BR/><BR/>OH and the answer is, on some days, yes steal from a blind guy, maybe not a kitten. Baby's... yeah, probably. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting! I appreciate it. Stop by anytime and enjoy the reading.... chirp (that's a cricket noise)...... :) And amazing feat you have taken on, no sugar. That's incredible.Being Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11313501742081164175noreply@blogger.com
