Day 1: a sub-goal

My little side effort to cut down on my sugar intake:

How will I do this?
  • Part of my plan is to stop adding sugar to my coffee. It's only 1-2 teaspoons per travel mug, but it's an easy thing to control.
  • Aforementioned Goal of not drinking pop will help with the decrease in sugar intake.
  • The other plan is to not get frou frou drinks (tea lattes, mochas, etc).
It's only been 8 hrs and having to think about each food item and sugar content is hard. This is why it's a little sub-goal and not part of my 3 because I'm pretty sure I will fail at this.

I did not put sugar in my coffee. I ordered a mere americano for my shift drink. I failed though in breakfast (had to eat a sugary cereal bar on the run) and when I got home I added caramel to my americano.

I would like to work up to a state where I have cut out much of my refined sugar intake.

  1. I used to eat the FiberOne breakfast bars (oats and chocolate were my fav!). According to their website, they have 10g of sugar per bar, but there is also 9g of dietary fiber so they are not too bad overall. And they are pretty tasty, anyway ;)
