Day 7
Remember when I mentioned (Day 3 post) that dried fruit was okay as long as it didn’t have added sugar? We’ll I seldom eat dried fruit because even though it is fruit, the sugars when dried are concentrated. When I do eat dried fruit, I’m conscious to have a very small portion and savor it. Yesterday, after lunch, around 3:30, I had a craving for something sweet and broke out the dates. Ooh, that hit the spot. I had a few with a tiny bit of no-sugar added almond butter. What a great snack!
A few of you asked how my first restaurant meal out was since starting My Sugar Free Year adventure last Wednesday. It really worked out fine. I ordered a salad with arugula, heirloom tomatoes, avocado, and grilled salmon. I told the waiter no lemon vinaigrette, and no balsamic reduction, and please tell the chef no sugar at all. Water to drink. It was perfect.
Wonder what I will discover today?
Onward!
