So the first thing to go will be added sugar. I can get by without cookies and candy just fine. I don't drink sugared soda. I read Robert Lustig's book on sugar and processed foods (Fat Chance)and having been using that as a guide. Sugar is processed differently than other foods and eating too much of it suppresses the hormones that tell you that you have had enough to eat. And it's not like you are eliminating a food group that you actually need to function.
Did ok yesterday. I know I need a snack in the early afternoon and didn't bring one yesterday. Came across a leftover roast beef sandwich from a work meeting. Not the worst thing in the world to eat but being prepared is key to avoiding temptation, so I need to work on that.
