Hi David,
I enjoyed your audio presentation very much; thanks for making it available on line. You have a very relaxed and authentic style in the way that you tell your story and share your suggestions. I also like the very friendly matter of fact way that you introduce personal accountability to your audience.
I quit sugar almost a year ago and have slipped a bit in the last couple of months. Your talk helped me get back on track and I’m planning on being sugar free until dessert for Christmas dinner.
I am an RN, currently studying to become a certified health counselor through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition (IIN). I’m considering focusing on helping people with sugar addictions when I begin my practice.
Check out IIN if you don’t already know it. I will be passing your website on to others there, it’s a great resource. It would be great to have a way to easily email your audio talk…..I am not the most computer saavy person so I may be missing something.
Best to You,
Jean Rapp

I have listened to your presentation twice now, and will continue to listen as a refresher. Thanks so much for sharing your personal account. Also, thanks for answering my question about the “Dirty Dozen.” I have it printed out, and refer to it all the time. Since November 7th (my start date), I have come to realize that this is a work in progress. My progress has been great in saying no to a lot of things that I used to feel I “deserved,” (cookies, hot chocolate, desserts out, etc.) Now, I am looking for alternatives, and came across a book called, “The I Can’t Believe This Has No Sugar Cookbook” by Deborah E. Buhr, that uses concentrated fruit juices a lot. Also, I am using Smucker’s Simply Fruit Spread a lot, too. I have come to believe that stopping being sweet is a gradual process, I have to work on it every day and look for alternatives. Thanks for your insight, experiences, and help.

Came upon your website today as I was attempting to stay sugr-free…again! I am a co-leader on the “Sugar-Free or Darn Close to It!” on SPARKPEOPLE.COM and I added this link to our site. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to learning more!
