Lose the alcohol and the sugar alcohols and LOSE!!!!!!!
I cut out the alcohol and the sugar alcohols a week ago and DOWN went the scale....HURRAY...............I was down four lbs after four weeks and now finally down another 6 lbs after cutting out the sugar alcohols and regular alcohol....
KT2Boys,
I agree about the alcohol. I don't consume the sugar alcohols but they say with alcohol, your body will burn the alcohol, and then the fat. If I feel the need to have a beer or Rum and diet coke, I have to calculate the calories or I will stall. I'm trying to stay away from alcohol as much as possible.

I stopped the alcohol 25 days ago and I think its making a difference. Better than that, I feel SO much better and have less cravings for sweets as when drinking (red wine only). It also broke the connection with smoking (also abstaining 25 days now). So it's been a very positive thing to nix the wine.
hi i was doing the FAT FAST for 4 days and it worked great...but is there to much suger alcohol in sugerless gum?
a pack of splenda in my coffee or a treat of sugerfree jello?
Alcohol and sugar alcohols do different things to different people...I am okay having a glass of wine every once in a while...but sugar alcohols slow my progress and give me terrible cravings.
