One day at a time. :) 

Thanks Deb! :) 

That's right! 

I made homemade lemonade for my kids yesterday as a special treat. Almost all things are good in moderation. :) 

I think that, if you are already consuming refined sugar, then a lemonade does not represent any especial problem. Also, when it's homemade, you have control over the amount of sugar that goes in it. That's a good thing! But these commercially sold lemonades have tons of refined sugar in it. It almost tasted like syrup now that my taste-buds have adapted to a sugarless diet lol. I do think that refined sugar is one of those things you can live without (health-wise) but I acknowledge that many people live a long time while consuming it and also that it's very tempting psychologically speaking heheh. I have to admit that I also don't know for how long I will be able to resist sweets but I try not to think about that much heheh. 

Thanks Deb and Nimoissansvous! :) 

We still consume sugar but I still always add less then things call for. 

I think that you already benefit a lot from doing that! :) I'm the type to go all or nothing lol. I can't just eat a little sugar or quantity of sweets. If I touch it, I'm going to inevitably exaggerate heheh :) 

commercial ones can be terribly sweet. walking is a good thing 

It's definitely great exercise. I once walked so much in a day that I felt like had taken a beating lol :) 

Thanks Chickturu and CalynLZ! :)
