I Made the Sunday Oregonian!

It's freezing cold outside--and snowing! It's a good thing I have all the ingredients to make sugar- free hot chocolate, because today is perfect for a hot mug and the great book I'm currently reading, Dune. It's quiet here, white outside, and I am inspired.

If you are coming by for the first time, thanks for reading! I hope that you are inspired to make healthy food choices after looking around my site, or maybe just be inspired to make a New Year's Resolution for 2009. I would love to hear from you and what motivated you to visit my blog--are you interested in quitting sugar, too? Are you interested in recipes? Natural sweeteners? Glycemic index? Donuts? Discussing your wild sugar cravings? Whatever it is, I would love to hear from you.


I WILL REPOST A NEW LINK TO THE OREGONIAN ARTICLE, AS SOON AS THEY CREATE AN ARCHIVAL LINK FOR ME. TO DATE, MY ARTICLE IS NO LONGER SHOWING ON THE WEBSITE. STAY POSTED!

I'm a new reader and curious if you plan on continuing your sugar-free lifestyle past this year? I was just referred to your blog by a friend after I announced that I'm going sugar-free in 2009.

I've done the sugar free lifestyle before, but only for a few months at a time. I was living in Hickville (K. Falls, OR) at the time and didn't have easy access to natural sweetners like stevia, agave nectar, ect. This time I am living in the big city and have access to anything I want so I'm looking forward to experimenting with a whole new way of cooking.

When I've gone off sugar before I felt so much better. My mood swings stopped and I was a much happier person. I don't really know why I got back into the sugar but it is starting to consume my life. I'm totally addicted and so is my three year old. We both need to get off it and get control of our lives.

Thank you for this blog. It is very inspiring and I will be checking in for tips and motivation. After reading through the articles, I'm starting to remember why I went off sugar in the first place. It is poison. I have to remember that! It's my biggest motivation.
