Comment on How exactly does one eat 1500 calories a day?

  Liquid sugar is the worst, IMHO.

  Things like soda, fruit juices, energy drinks,etc are way too easy to consume without realising just how much.

  It’s very easy to consume ¼ of a pound of sugar a day in just a few drinks.

  Drink water.

    Yep water and matcha are my go tos for drinks.

    And yeah I agree about the liquid sugars def considering trying to make natural juices at least

  cut back on sugar

  One type of snack/dessert I do: get a slice of high-fiber bread (toasted, or not), and put a bit of honey or jam on it. Much better than a pastry, bc I can control exactly how much sugar is there.

  I feel you, sugar is hard. I find it easier to eat a tiny bit of something sweet like once a week than to cut it altogether. My cravings are too strong when there’s no vision of fulfilling them at least a bit :)

  what has worked for me is just trying to skip out on sugary stuff as often as possible and instead eating regular food that i really enjoy, eventually i just stop really craving sweets that much and now the only sweets i tend to want is stuff like cinnamon rolls and chips, which is more savoury than sweet honestly.
