[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 695184, member: 41816"] Medjool dates are lush, aren't they? During my raw food phase I was using them as sugar substitutes in the hot choc. In my innocence (back then) I thought that they were good, because they were raw. and fruit. Ah well, ya live and learn, don't you? I also went through an artificial sweetener phase (never again) and a fructose and palm sugar phase. As I found out more, and fashions changed, and before I got my bg meter. I suppose each step, each development, gets us closer, it just seems to take a heck of a long time to get to where you want to be (for me, that is less than 50g carbs a day, no grains, no root veg, erythritol and bg that doesn't often go above 7 :)) Don't worry, we all go through the same stuff. I think we actually have it easier nowadays, with the internet. There's a LOT of dodgy info out there, but the good info is there too - if you look hard enough. A few years ago, the info simply wasn't available at all... [/QUOTE]
