Yes, some of the cereals I eat have refined sugar..and so do the crackers..but the usual suspects are all gone. I have had some days when I have overeaten, but it just is not the same. I am at a maintenance weight, and the amount of ice cream I used to consume at one sitting was ...well amazing...and it is gone. And I am drinking more water than ever, and water improves the mood. Please...just tap water...not that special stuff for 25 cents a bottle.
