South Beach Diet - Words of Wisedom

I am in phase II and decided that it wouldn't be such a bad thing if I had a sugar free chocolate bar (snack size.) I got sick - super sick. My stomach was "not so kind to me" :devil: sick! It was only after I got sick that my DB reads the back and tells me that it could have a "laxative like" effect!!!!!!
Ladies beware - it wasn't worth it!!!
Has anyone else had this problem with sugar free?

Lots of people have that problem. Some can eat a little but others none. Sorry you cannot eat any. Dr. A. doesn't recommend stuff with maltitol anyway. Ruth will be screaming "frankenfoods" :D

Oh so sorry to hear about your illness! Like Bunna said alot of chicks have had the same reaction. I only ate them once in the begining but they did not have any ill effects on me. But that goes without sayin on most things! If it affects most it will not me and if most are not effected I am. lol I hope it's all over for you now.

Oh, yes. I won't touch that stuff anymore. It's just not worth the agony afterwards. :lol:

Yep I had 3pcs yesterday...and same thing happened. I need all the help I can get in the department so I will still eat mine! Sorry, makes you not want chocolate eh? ;)

Yes, my "illness" is over. Honeybee - I can't believe you would touch that evil stuff again!!!

Soon: so sorry to see you got sick:tired: on S/F products. I sometimes have problems with S/F products. You have to read labels. I now look for products with Splenda added to it. Take care :) BB :

Soon2B--I am a once a weeker. :o

You huneybee are a brave woman. I'm never touching that stuff again.

Hunny, as a 3 a dayer, I can appreciate how you'd want to use the chocolate. :lol:
What a topic!

Man, I wish it did that to me. I could eat that stuff all day long with no ill effects.
