I'm not a sweet tooth at all but, occasionally, I may have a sweet biscuit/cookie, cake, or chocolate slice. The brain needs natural sugars, particularly those in plants...such as fruits, agave nectar, sucanat, etc. Processed sugars are not good for the body. I went vegan (for the animals) a year ago and lost 10 kilo (22 pounds) in six months. My higher-than-average cholesterol levels returned to normal also. It was a win/win.<br /><br />Have a lovely weekend!

SIL Beardo lost about 60 pounds a year ago....he didn't weigh himself, he didn't deprive himself of anything...he just started making better choices...yes he cut down on sugar items..but because he was eating so many good foods...hemp, chia seed, fruit smoothy every morning..big salad with feta, sunflower seeds no dressing for lunch, lots of vegies with dinner, he didn't crave things the same. He still had ice cream, pizza and goodies weekly..my daughter lost weight too...she doesn't weigh herself either. SIL needed a new wardrobe because nothing fit... Cupcake fluctuates up and down a few pounds all the time...but gauges everything on how her clothes fit. Beardo weaned me very very slowly off of a lifetime of sweet and low in my coffee and tea. It took about a year...now I only use creamer...and I find so many things way too sweet now. Sugar in my coffee now is so gross and I could never use sweet and low again! That's a good thing. Don't be too hard on yourself...just do it very slow...cut down first... if you crave it, eat it. The more you have sugar the more you want! Cold turkey is just a great road to failure!! Make small changes they do work... <br /><br />Hugs Giggles Giggleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11713143985984314202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1651689109551901144.post-90671318497751010132016-09-16T16:05:06.547-07:002016-09-16T16:05:06.547-07:00cute giraffes and gorgeous bright colours :)

There is nothing one can do with the sugar in tomato sauce, and other processed foods. When I make snacks they are sweetened with natural stevia, or sweet potato or something like that. I really don't eat much snacks. I do bake for DH and he gets sugars. Once you stop eating sugar it is not difficult to stay away from it. In fact for me it is so sweet it is icky. I did it to help with the lupus. Yes I did loose weight.
