where did you find the Stevia? Wally does not carry it yet that I;ve seen...

Congrats on the 10lbs..:D.how much you plan on losing?

Fresh Market here in Fort Wayne. I think it might be a chain store
I'll bet Trader Joe's has it too if you can find it, I know of one in Indy

My high school weight was 180 but I was a 6'2" bean pole nerd with no muscle. So I am shooting for 200, since I have muscle now.
Once the gut is gone I will be happy that is where all mine is.
My high last year was 250 and am sitting at 215 as of yesterday

Never seen a Trader Joes? what states they in?

Mainly in larger cities
All over California and two in Indianapolis, Indiana
checkout TraderJoes.com and get the printerfriendly version of all locations they are all over except for South Dakota;)
Used to be my favorite store to go to in Cali

I have yet been able to find a Wal-Mart that does not have the Stevia based sweetener Truvia on their shelves.

However I have found a number of them that do not have ATMs.

It's not so easy to grow in SD..ordered a plant from a seed company and it up and died on me...did you put it in the ground? I potted it and that may have been the death of it...that and the South Dakota wind.

I'll try it again next year..this time in the ground! Our ground is more gumbo than sand though so I'll have to add some sand to the mix.

Meat and cheese also impacts your colon. Grains help with digestion. There's a reason they're one of the food groups.
