One of them is bars. I love bars! They make a fantastic snack, but seriously, just because they are vegan does not mean you can have 3 of them all at once. That is just a waste of calories and money. The next is hot drinks and smoothies. I took a great raw kale smoothie recipe and over time added a lot more of the sweet ingredients than it originally called for. I also love to make hot green tea with fresh crushed ginger and steaming almond milk or boil a pot of homemade spicy hot chocolate… and add sugar to it all! I try to add only one or two teaspoons of sugar or agave then supplement that with stevia or use stevia alone but that just means i still need everything to be totally sweet.
I’m really excited for the next 28 days left because so far everything is going well. I feel like I am getting very enlightened because I’m already scanning every product critically and seeing how sugar is everywhere. There is evaporated cane juice in my peanut butter and sugar in my mixed seasoning, ketchup, and pre-seasoned quinoa/rice blend. So basically it is every! Honestly the fact that it is everywhere just creates a wonderful challenge for me to get creative. Tomorrow morning I am making my own jam with strawberries and chia seeds and I found a great smoothie recipe that is packed with protein and fiber.
I hope this will get me past the weightloss plateau after losing 46 pounds and help clear my skin. Regardless of the actual results, I am just happy to try out this little experiment!
