I have nothing white in my house,sugar,rice or flour. Years ago I was addicted to choclate(pound a day sometimes) and mint sucking candies as I had a terrible post nasal drip(lots of allergies) and afraid of offending someone the breath was so bad.In 1969 I got rid of the drip and addiction by going on a week liquid fast.apple juice/water, or lemonade/honey.(now I go one day a week fast,to give liver a rest and clean out toxins)However because I am hypo, I take 4/5 capsuls of spirulina when fasting. Also checkout your thyroid and see that you are not hypo,hyper or diabetic.If you are- try not to go on Rx doc.might want to give you. Chromimum Picalate helps stop the craving also. I find after a meal if I take fresh pineapple it is satisfying, as well as a digest aid. I also eat 5/6 veggies day, plus 4/5 fruits.(no dairy, or meat)Also remember bread,starch converts to sugar. I am hypo and unfortunately they started me(before I was into homeo, herbs, etc.) on Rx of Thyralor, started with 2gr. now taking 3/4 gr.a day, I will be 84 next month, weigh l25, very active from 8-11pm. do all my own house and garden work, and run three different social clubs. Im sure you will be able to do it all just fine, learn to say no to self and others and the lady in the mirror will love you more for it as you grow older and wiser. The only cold ceral made without sugar are in health stores, even there you must read labels carefully.Even rice and soy milks are loaded with various sweetners, and additives.I put nothing in my basket till I've read all the ingrediants. Have fun, enjoy your new you.
