Diet coke has no calories but since I don’t like them much I don’t drink them like I did cokes. I drink water a lot but try to eat a lot of green vegetables and I have been buying oranges, apples, etc. They have natural sugar in them but I have to eat something. I fixed a nice steak Thursday night and had asparagus...no bread and it was filling and delicious. But I love pasta of any kind and potatoes and I am staying away from them until I go back and get my blood checked Wednesday. And I still am weak. Sugar gives energy, doesn’t it? Did the dr. tell you to cut back or are you trying to lose weight?
jaycee, I love potatoes & pasta also & LOVE, LOVE, LOVE cheese.. I dont have really healthy eating overall.. I think we all have our weak areas & I think if we in general have good eating habits we can on occasion go for our splurges.
I have never read a lot on the nautural ways with sugar problems, diabetes etc. It is no doubt an entirely different ball game.
I need to get ready to leave for the day. Hang in there!
