Ht. 5'5, Wt. Too much - Yes, Catelynne, I am now a health nut and yes I am still overweight. Wanna know why? Because it takes longer than a mere 2 months of semi-organic foods to lose 75 pounds. Now, ignore my advice: I don't care. But when you plateau or still get sick with diseases related to eating those ingredients you'll see why I avoid them. In addittion, you make it sound like I can never eat anything fun. I eat cookies a few times a month. I eat ice cream. I eat pasta and breads. I just eat the right kinds so I won't regret it later. There is no need to be rude to me. I was just trying to help ya'll. Health is more important than the weight you are.

Good lord they aren't THAT expensive. And you don't have to go organic to avoid all of those ingredients.

I agree 100%, my family is on a budget and at the current time I buy my own special food. But it doesn't hurt to try if you can. :)

Not only that, but many organic foods are more expensive than the regulars. It's hard on families who are on a tight budget like mine. I think that as long as you keep your processed foods in moderation you should be fine.

I'll check out the healthy choice brand but I didn't see anything better at my local grocery store. I have healthy organic foods all day, at dessert I figure one little thing is ok. I appreciate all your help and advice too :)

what is the point of it being fat free if its still bad for you? You don't have to eat organic foods to be healthy. Try Healthy Choice brand. It tastes better, its not organic, but its better for you.

You raise good points but Juelz was simply pointing out a cool desert that is 98% fat free for those of us that do indulge ourselves. We can read food labels too!
