I like fruit....

You know.. I've given up a lot of things that I like to eat. Most of them don't bother me. Well chips bother sometimes but for the most part I'm ok with giving up pastas, rice, potatoes, bread and beans. I have a bite or two of them from time to time and that's enough... I've had to give up all artificial sweeteners and now even stevia is causing me problems. It's been three days or maybe four since I've had any stevia and I can surely say today, I am having much less muscle cramping. I know splenda causes muscle cramps but didn't think stevia would do that too. Don't really think it's the stevia, but more my own body that can't process that stuff. Wonder if it would happen with real sugar now too? I actually bought some sugar in the raw today. Four carbs per teaspoon. I'm think half a tsp would be enough for my yogurt. But I am sort of scared too cause if all sweeteners cause cramping would sugar cause it too? And that brings me to the subject of fruit. I've decided I'm going to eat some fruit sometimes. Life is short. I want fruit.
