Trader Joes Gotta Haves
 

Hello, I'm off to Trader Joes after work today. What do you buy if you shop there???? Last night I went to Albertson and found some great hot dog buns and some legal pita bread, WOW:o :p :devil: :devil: :devil: paid $2.29 for hot dog buns. THis morning I had a bun with cheese and I am totally shocked at how filling it was. I feel that getting all this sugar out of my system will be a process over a couple of weeks. What is your experience? Did you go total SB and never look back???Please share

Hi, Feet... greetings from a fellow newcomer.

I jumped in slowly, too, but I've managed to eliminate all of the refined sugar over the past four weeks. I think it was easier for me to give things up slowly but everyone is different and I'm sure my results would have been even better if I had gone cold turkey.

I'm not a big sweets eater, but I love pasta, bread and potatoes so those have been my biggest challenges. In fact, until I read the book I didn't realize that I had a sugar problem because I wasn't considering the amount of natural sugars in a lot of the foods I ate.

Hang in there! I really think this is a good program and something I can stick with.
