I used to get Minute Maid Light when I was doing weight watchers... it took a little getting used to, but now I prefer it. Would the natural sugars make you "dump" or is that just refined sugars?
Splenda makes a brown sugar. I have not tried it, but I did see the bag at BJ's. I am also in FL, so if you know where a BJ's is, then you can get (pseudo) brown sugar.
First and most importantly I LOVE YOU posts! I don't know if it is everywhere but here in Ca. we have splenda in brown sugar also Whole foods market sells several sugar free syrups I gave it to my kids and they did not notice. Thanks for the Smuckers hint....love it!
For oatmeal, I use the Quaker instant maple & brown sugar flavor -- excellent and all the sweetness of pancakes with maple syrup! But have you tried the Splenda brown sugar? I have some in the cabinet and I think my husband has used it, but I haven't tried it yet. I wonder if that would give you the brown sugar you like, too? I haven't seen that Smucker's flavor yet, but I will look for it. That juice IS excellent!
I always have cream of wheat or oats in the morning.. never instant :P umm have a protein bar mid morning and a salad with some chicken or fish at lunch.. sometimes I have a low fat yogert before dinner or something like an apple.. then at dinner I try to get in 3 oz of meat, 1/2 cup of veggies ( thats before I cook them) and 1/4th carbs like brown rice or something. everyday is different but this is most of the time what I get in. :)
Hi April! I have 3 kids, and I'm going to look for that syrup, because my 4yo eats pancakes in the morning almost everyday, and I thought I was doing good with my "lite" syrup with 100 cal, 0 fat, 26 carbs, 24 sugar. Sooooo, I will look for it for sure! Thanks!
I am so going to look for that Juice, the Orange Juice does not bother me but I am concernd about the Calorie's, with this Light Juice you get half..Great news!!! As for the Smuckers I am going to look hard for that I am sure someone down here has it, Kim is a Diabedic so it's perfect for her to..Awesome Kiddo..Thanks so much for the Info!!! Christina
thats not real juice forget about calories just eat right food this video is of no educational value

thanks for making this...I was getting a little worried, cause I love juice and I was afraid I wouldn't be able to drink it after the surgery.
