Yes, (sigh), I know well the Glycemic In...Awesome! Yes, (sigh), I know well the Glycemic Index, as I was a low carber off and on for years!! However, that lifestyle just does not realistically work for me. I generally "fall off the wagon" after a few months. I don't have the willpower to give up my breads and pastas - and why should I give up everything?!<BR/><BR/>For me, this is mostly about getting of the roller coaster of sugar. And maybe I don't get completely off, but just avoid the big DROPS!<BR/><BR/>The way I look at it, I'm going from eating a box of chocolates (v-day is the devil!) and looking for more to devour, to being able to eat foods without abusing them (like I am now).<BR/><BR/>Preferably, I'd like to have a diet (as in food I consume, not some magic plan) where I could enjoy foods from ALL groups without abusing any one particular group. <BR/><BR/>A life of drooling over a chocolate cupcake that I will never allow myself enjoy is not for me. Yes, I can have A cupcake, not ALL of the cupcakes, and not EVERY night. That's where I want to be.Just Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16919602216182139701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3849746741752006640.post-43893566739897239622009-02-18T22:26:00.000-06:002009-02-18T22:26:00.000-06:00This set of posts is what I was originally trying ...This set of posts is what I was originally trying to follow before -- <A HREF="http://www.naturallyknockedup.com/search/label/The%20Sugar%20Detox" REL="nofollow">http://www.naturallyknockedup.com/search/label/The%20Sugar%20Detox</A> -- it takes you through several weeks of weaning yourself all things related to sugar. She also gives some great information of where you find sugar that you didn't think it might be. If anything it is a good resource. <BR/><BR/>Sigh...okay, I might be in. I might have to let myself have one more cupcake since they are here and then I can send the rest with Jeremy to work. IF I do this though, I will still allow myself a couple drops of liquid stevia in my tea in the morning...it is the one thing, I won't give up. BUT seeing as how I have made the switch to that from sweetened condensed milk in my tea I consider that a good step. :) Oh, and I will continue to drink milk. <BR/><BR/>But as you will see on that site -- if you are going really hard core then this means no breads, pastas, flours, etc, b/c it all turns to sugar. :) Just thought I would toss that one out there. hee heeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
