[QUOTE="Robin101, post: 1968475, member: 40478"] Good approach. Identify what sugar you do actually consume. I would actually just eat normally for a week but weigh everything and write down ALL sugar in everything and all carbs. I wouldn't even cut back portion sizes. Then you will understand how much you need to cut back. A little? A lot? My Achilles heel is bread. If I can't eat it in a sandwich it isn't food! Sadly I have little will power where bread is concerned so my only option was to cut it from my diet completely. And no replacement...... Painful at first. But makes the difference. Sugar went the same way. I didn't look for alternatives to sugar, I looked to alternative foods that avoided sugar or sweeteners completely. More difficult, just as painful. [/QUOTE]
