Good Luck and I hope you have great success. My birthday is July 16 too! My goal is to lose another 28 to 50 pounds by then. I know it is a big goal and I will be happy if the scale keeps moving down.

What kind of lemonade do you mean?

Don't feed your cravings.

ZZbug, it might be best if you decide you are going to quit sweeteners all together, rather than just "for a time", which can help to keep that longing alive.

As you know, the limit of lemon is 2-3 Tbs.

And if you're trying to get over your sweet cravings, adding sugar free sweetener won't help.

You can just add the lemon juice to water.
