Kathy, so many stores have their own Natural brands if you can't go organic. I have found that sticking to pure foods that you put together yourself is much easier and healthier in the long run. It's hard to make the adjustment to switching to drinking mostly water at first but it gets better. I cannot tolerate using any of the artificial sweeteners because they stall me. I got a pack of coke zero and it's very addicting. I drink water, one cup of regular coffee a day, and red wine. When I look back at my weight loss, I can see a pattern with the way that I eat.
