    David, your comment on soy milk has thrown me - it didn't occur to me that fructose was sneaking into my diet via 'healthy' soy milk. I would really appreciate a sugar guide on milk substitutes and even dairy substitutes in general - it seems very difficult to avoid dairy on a low-fructose diet.

    I assume that the 'lactose free' UHT milk would be sweetened with fructose - can you confirm?

    I've been on very low (or so i thought!) fructose diet for over 3 months now and have lost a couple of kgs. I've been having about 1/2 cup of soy milk with oatmeal and fruit for breakfast - but i'll have to swap that for rice milk now!


    Good idea! ... I'll work on a guide to Milk subsitutes.

    Cheers

    I am now sugar free Day 5 and have not had any withdrawals that I have read that other people have. Does it suddenly catch up you or am I just lucky. Havent had too many cravings for sweet things mainly it happens after meals. Main problem I have is not feeling guilty with normal foods that are not low fat. Am not hungary at all since being fat free and I do admit that I can taste the sweetness in foods so much more.

    Oh thank heavens I'm not the only one Elizabeth!  I'm onto day three of going with minimal fructose and I'm yet to have any of the withdrawal symptoms others have spoken about.  I can't help but wonder if I'm doing something wrong, maybe too many high-sugar veggies? :(
