Hunt down hidden sugars hiding in your cabinets and pantry. Throw away foods containing high amounts of added sugars, everything from tomato sauces to ketchup to peanut butter. Be especially wary of low-fat items as they often contain more sugar to make them taste better.When purging your kitchen, be on the look out for these names:
Fructose
Maltose
Sorbitol
Evaporated cane juice
Syrups
Xylotol
Sugars ending in "ol" or "ose"
This is where it can get tricky, but by reading your labels and looking for these items, you can definitely cut the sugar intake even more!!! Good luck this week!
Sunday - Day 7
Sunday was pretty good - Made a big pot of hommade chili, and homemade potato bread. Just had oatmeal for breakfast, and a bag of edamame when I got home from church. So no added sugars, but no idea what was in the chili, with out doing all the math :P The only thing was after I just felt like I needed something sweet, so I had a bottle of propel fiber water, which had 7g sugar, but 8 g fiber! pretty good!
