Yay... nobody can fault this,..... eerrr Efe abi? but wait a minute o, Osisi this mango, is it a meal or an addition aka dessert after a juicy meal of chips and 'shikin'

Sorry for gate crashing guys but need ideas and tips on managing my sugar intake. I have been able to eliminate fizzy drinks (was addicted to coke used to have like 4 bottles a day but I am proud to say I have not had a bottle of Coke or fizzy drinks in about 9 yrs). I am not a chocolate or dessert person. my kids or people buy me chocolate for mothers etal and I give them out. I have the occasional biscuit once in a while cake etc.

My issue now is my morning cuppa or coffee. I take my coffee and tea black but It must be sweet. I can't do without tea I can do without coffee but if I have not had tea in a day (including summer) it's like something is missing.i switched to fruit and herbal teas but It still has to be sweet. I first switched to Brown sugar then I read reviews that said its still calorie packed. Then honey(still use honey ) but it's not compact to take to work. Then i switched to sweetners (Splenda) at work. Now I read reviews on how artificial sweetnees were banned in Japan as they are linked to cancer.i then bought stevia a plant based sweetner but It had this disgusting bitter after taste(defeats the purpose does it not ) also been reading that it also causes cancer.


Wetin girl go do now, I need my tea but I need it sweet. Tips please

I am addicted to coffee and tea too,but i take them with honey or half teaspoon of granulated or brown sugar.Never use sweetener,they are artificial.

Less than 25 percent of your daily calories should come from the added sugar in foods like cookies, cereal, and ketchup. To satisfy your sweet tooth-especially if you're counting calories, limiting carbs you need these sugar alternatives.

A friend of mine who is a nutritionist told me about these sugar alternatives which are the latest made from stevia, an herb found in Central and South America that is up to 40 times sweeter than sugar but has zero calories.You will find them in store,SWEETLEAF AND TRUVIA.

Thanks edwife I will try this one.I tried Truvia its disgusting

I try to use honey as well but was kinda not keen on leaving it in my drawers at work. They get sticky after some time.

So do you think Brown sugar is actually healthier than sweetners? I buy brown sugar for hubby but I don't use it.

Very healthier dear,i mostly use it.(brown and white granulated ones).

Moderation is the word here,a teaspoon and nothing more.But if you take tea twice or more often,half teaspoon.

Ah Dami, I see Ed's already suggested a solution to you. Efe's the very wrong person to ask about teas / coffees and sugar alternatives. I've completely given up on all three. I drink only water. I don't do white / brown/ sweetners et al. I get my sugar from fruits in their purest form, straight from the farm.

My suggestion? Give up teas and coffees. Or, you could go for the green herbal / lemon tea. I hear it's quite good.

smartmom:

Lol!

I'm not that bad na...or am I?

But yeah, Babyosisi deserves a blue biro tick for this. Remain small, we go promote her up to the next level.

Haa Efe wan kill person give up tea iv already switched to herbal/green tea( most of those in my picture are flavoured green teas/camomile/fennel/lemon) but to give up totally Hian I don't know o. I will try sha. Drink more water now though. Will try to limit it to 2 cups a day max and then drink more water in between.

Edwife ok I will go back to brownsugar/honey. Will use just one satchet of those ones they provide in my office(yuk imagine that on green tea but staying healthy is a sacrifice )

For those of you who gave up bread totally how did you do it? I have given up white and the normal sliced variant I have just whole wheat pitta bread now(see picture) and just one or two at at time but to give up bread totally I just don't know. One of my friends is trying to get us to do a no bread AT ALL for one month challenge but I no think say I fit o.


See my black legs chai

I have gone off coke soda too after decades of addiction. My tea or coffee has to be decaf but I add semi skimmed milk to a strong brew and am good to go. But if you dont do milk, drink your tea with a squeeze of lemon, The tart taste will remove the crave for sweetness. You could gradually reduce the sugar till you go off completely.

Kudos anyway for the healthy move.

Cous cous.

And home made microwaved popcorn with caramel

After this caramel. . I won't eat sugar again except the one for my tea.

Once a day .
damiso, I can't help you with the sugar part oh
. We are all struggling here.

Thank you. It was hard with the coke thing but I guess if I could do that guess I could do the sugar too.

Bank Holiday over my lunch prep taking in my own lunch and snacks In allows me curb eating unhealthy stuff.


The Almonds are for the whole week and they are really filling with water for that mid morning snack.

Chillisauce that cous cous looks yummy.

moca:

This oyibo people will not kii me
Nne, which grass is this one na?
Just imagining presenting this one to hubby .
He thank me and quietly retire to bed .
Next time,he will say"so it has reached the level of giving me grass in this house?

@Moca. Please dont kill me wih laugh o.

That's spinach salad,grilled plantain and grilled fish.

If you like plantain, you can start by grilling it in the oven and pretty much your red and white meats. Its still taste the same.

You can take it one day at a time moca.

Easy with the almonds, though healthy they are packed with lots and lots of calories. Not good if you are not exercising enough or your work is not too mobile
100g of almond is like a half cup of fufu

I buy in large quantity. Sometimes they end up getting expired.
but when it's time to eat, I prefer putting the extra in the bin than running for 20min to burn off extra calories

My body is not a bin abeg.
