    My roommate and I went to Disney last year and she was on her 2 week pre-surgery diet. Those folks at Disney went above and beyond to accomodate her needs! One place made a chicken broth from scratch for her while we waited. They sure know how to make you feel like they care! They even have a special phone number to call if you are planning on visiting so that they can accomodate your needs at virtually any restaurant.
  2. I get complex migraines when I eat artificial sweetners or MSG for that matter... Try the stevia in the raw...the other stevia brands may use some chemicals. Also, be wary of the liquids for medical testing, fills, and even medicines. :cursing:FYI sucralose on a label is also known as splenda.
  3. I am very allergic to artificial sweetners! I get complex migraines where my vision goes, my tongue goes numb preventing me from talking right, light and sound sensitivity, nausea, and horrible a migraine! I got the same scared look when I told them...but then the nutritionist adapted the diet for me!!! I am doing a shake in the morning, 4-6oz Protein for lunch and dinner with as much non-starchy vegetables that I want (Basicly a low carb diet). The first week I lost aprox 10lbs and I like my shakes so much I'm going for at least 2 meals! Try GNC 100% Whey Protein (I think they are the Pro-Performance)...I know that they have Vanilla, chocolate, and Unflavored that are ok and without sucralose(aka splenda). The other flavors have sucralose in them so be wary. Also, I am mixing mine with 8oz of vanilla light silk. They taste just like milkshakes to me and take care of that sugar/sweet that I want. Also, be wary of the liquids you take when you get tests or fills done. They usually have artificial sweetners in them. One more thing...try the stevia in the raw...it is a good alternative sweetner and it has no chemicals like the other stevia brands! Good Luck!
