Spent all day in the recliner, knitting, hoping and praying it would get my mind off my tummy pain.

Maltitol is EVIL! I didn't have any yesterday, so I finally felt better after taking a Donnatal. Tummy is still rumbly today though. Must have been the dairy. I tell ya, this Weight Watcher diet is gonna kill me. WHY do they have to put that stuff in everything?

No dairy today, and no HFCS either. I got a Weight Watcher cookbook, so I'm just gonna make my own stuff from now on; no more "ready-made" crap for this gal.

Oy....

You poor thing, that is so awful! I am so glad that nutritionist warned me about that stuff because the only one I was searching for in foods was sorbitol.
I just wanted to add that I think avoiding all the ready made is such a good idea. Even if it weren't so upsetting to your tummy, I think all those artificial sweeteners and stuff are not good for you at all.
My nutritionist (am I getting annoying with that? ) says that it is always, always best to make your own food and avoid anything ready made or packaged. So far, I am finding this really hard! Especially for taking food to work with me, and things. I am getting better, but I think it's really hard.
I think the WW cookbook is a good idea, so you know everything you are eating. One of my New Years Resolutions is to cook more healthy meals and snacks, so let us know if you find any really good recipes that won't upset any tummies!

Good luck, can't wait to hear how you are doing!

Cheers,
