"Cut sugar from coffee and discovered hidden sugars in everyday foods"
Before this program I wasn't aware of sugar content in some of the foods I ate. I love Siracha sauce but realizing it has sugar I'll use less and more of the other chile sauces. I've been wanting to cut sugar out of my coffee. I like milk and sugar but it's been having a bad effect on my stomach and now I'm drinking coffee with milk and I'm fine with it. The first day without sugar I had a long day and while driving home I thought , "Tonight I'll have a gin and tonic."Then i thought AH HA! Tonic has sugar! That was sneaky, so i had a glass if wine. I don't eat sugary foods. I love it but discipline starts in the store and i don't buy ice cream, cookies, even jams or jelly. I don't eat processed food but the few sauces i use i check for sugar to be more aware. But i wanted to cut out sugar in my coffee and am glad for it.
