I do not take any sugar in any form apart from those spoons that go into my coffee. I cook my own food. Stopped Subway [my usual lunch 12 inch sub] and pizzahut [full garden pizza for dinner] long ago when I decided to shed weight. No cakes, no ice-cream, no granola bars, no canned food of any type, no bottled fruit-juices [I just eat fruit itself], no sauces, no salad dressing over the years.gorgeous no sugar recipe books 'I quit sugar cookbook'
But, Xmas time all rules were set aside, so downed good amount of rice and potatoes, besides my coffee [oh sugar!]. It took 4 weeks for me to shed those lbs. But after that weight loss stalled. So I need to further adjust my diet. One hope is that Ash Wednesday is nearing; Lent will help me to reach my goals by Easter.
Thanks, much appreciated. Right now kind of confused, mostly due to absence of cafine in my system? and am struggling to readjust; hope not to fall through cracks. My daughter [a budding doc] found me bit low in energies, wondering if something wrong. She feels that I am suffering from withdrawal symptoms and that coffee is anti-depressant. Anyway, I believe I can do without coffee totally; by substituting cold water.I feel big sisterly to you that I am being so
