How do I keep sugar low?

rcrough

Hello, I just joined because I was getting bored with my old method (Lasted 6 years) and felt I was cheating myself. I needed something new. I found I can do an ok job of managing calories and fat but I find it nearly impossible to keep my sugar down. Sugar free food gives my a stomach ache. Couple pieces of fruit and I'm at my limit. Ideas? Oh yeah, did I mention I had a sweet tooth?

I wouldn't worry about it unless you have a medical reason to monitor/limit it.

Hmm you got me on that one, I have a piece of dark chocolate once in awhile other than that , I don't eat food with sugar in them , apples & strawberries are all for now. Maybe if you take a break from all sugar you will lose the need for it??

Don't pay any attention to it.

The only thing that bothers me is the belly fat and at my age (50+) I think other than the exercise I'm already doing and the fat I'm already watching, that is the only knob left to turn.
