Is a no sugar diet possible???

Make sure you realise what sort of sugar is in your foods. Lots of foods contain natural sugars such as fruit and even milk. The stuff you want to avoid is added sugar especially white sugar. It is often listed as sucrose, glucose or glucose syrup.

If you are taking in to much sugar, cut some out! Fruit has a lot of natual sugars....your body does need some sugar!

If it helps any, stevia is a natural sweetener. I use it in my tea/coffee and even desserts. It doesn't get recognized as a sugar so your pancreas doesn't send out all that unnecessary insulin (which your body counteracts with adrenaline, making you feel yucky and hazy). But yeah, in general, it's very smart to watch it but don't stress too much about sugar. Limit sweets and yes, even fruits, and you will be fine. Good luck.

You cannot eliminate sugar from your diet unless you got 100% of your calories from meat and eggs. Even most vegetables gave some sugar in them. You can reduce your sugar intake though, by avoiding added sugar and keeping fruit to one or two servings a day. Also keep in mind that even thought the label does not reflect it, grains and starches are sugar too once they are in your body.

Is a no sugar diet possible?
Probably but good for you definately not, you need sugar but just make sure most of it is coming from fruit instead of sweets.

For breakfast i have Shredded Wheat with nuts, unless it's an excercise day when i'll add a pre-workout 1/2 banana as well i used to be the same and sprinkle sugar over my cereal but eat clean for a bit and you'll soon get over the cravings.

All my sugar comes from fruit now (and the occasional ice-cream / glass of wine)

I, too, am a sugar junkie. I have had to make several changes in my eating habits to avoid holding onto weight because of my sugar intake. Here are the rules I follow:

1) no processed sugars (anything that comes in a box, says "little debbie", or doesn't come from a tree)... that includes fruit in a can. dried fruit and fresh fruit are my sugars that i eat. i try to eat at least 2 pieces of fruit a day. I eat a small amount of dried cranberries in my PLAIN oatmeal every morning, and sometimes i sprinkle some splenda on it. no cookies, no cakes, no nutri-grain bars or special k bars... all of this has added sugars.

2) no fruit juices.

3) i use splenda to sweeten things, like my coffee. i don't use a lot, just a little to take the edge off.

4) i don't eat white bread, white potatoes, or anything with flour in it, unless it's wheat or whole grain bread with my sandwich for lunch. i eat sweet potatoes (with a little splenda and cinnamon.. yum!), whole grain bread (only 2 pieces a day), lots of vegetables, and a lot of lean protein (low-fat cheeses, cottage cheese, lean meats, almonds, etc.)

5) once a week, i have a free day. i follow the "body for life" program, and it says that one day a week you eat what you want and don't exercise. i do eat sweets on that day (saturday), but i don't usually go crazy with it. usually, i feel like crap on sunday, so i have found it's not worth it. i eat a piece of cake and maybe some donuts... but i don't eat the entire little debbie aisle

if you would like, add me as a friend... my food diary is visible to friends. i haven't completely mastered the beast, but i think i've tamed her down quite a bit.

Please people. stop confusing natural sugar with refined and processed ones. Of course we need fruit etc but thats more a question about carbs then sugar.

I think what you want to do is limit your processed sugar. You also want to limit carbs. You need some but most likely not as many as you are eating. If you're looking for guideance look at food plans for diabetics. They are healthy for the general population and low sugar/carbs.

Yeah but she wasnt asking about fruit etc, cutting out sugar in your coffe, cookies, candy etc cant be dangerous, most of the time its the biggset reason people are overweight.

People who keep saying you need sugar are just scared they are addicted and cant imagine letting go of there true friend sugar.

Beeing addicted to sugar and qutting it can be compared with heroinaddiction.

You asked for some ideas for breakfast. Try some eggs or maybe a low sugar peanut butter. Something with protein. I think you will be amazed at how much better you will feel. I was never a huge fan of eggs, but I have been making an omelet almost every morning. I add lots of onion, green peppers, maybe some cheese or ham. It will be very filling and a great way to start the day. I use Egg Beaters a lot. Hope this helps!
