Am I on the Sugarbusters path?
Hi there!
I know that there is a book on the SugarBusters diet. I am notoriously BAD with following prescribed diets (i.e. eat 2 g of protein for every 0.5 carb, only eat x, y, z for lunch, etc.).
BUT, I HAVE made a serious committment to eliminate as much sugar from my diet as possible, and when I mean "sugar", I mean processed refined foods such as white rice and white pasta and white flour (replacing them with whole grains, of course), AND pre-packaged ANYTHING, AND checking labels for added sugars such as fructose, corn-syrup (which is the Devil as far as I am concerned), AND added sugars (i.e. juice which is more like a punch), AND fake sugars (I seem to crave sweets, so this is the easiest choice for me). I include fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, milk, legumes and proteins in my diet. I limit the starchy veg and fruit (think corn and bananas and peas) -- I essentially treat them as a bread product, which I control fastidiously to avoid my carb binges.
Am I on the SugarBusters path? Is this forum appropriate for me? Or, do I need to buy the book and follow a strict outlined plan?
Thanks
