    So I haven’t cut sugar and white bread out entirely, but in general sugar makes me sick to my stomach so I avoid it especially in concentrated form like soda or candy. For bread I’ve been learning to bake though too! And because sugar makes me feel so sick if I’m baking things like bread I usually leave out the sugar entirely and if it is something like cookies or muffins I’ll cut it down by 1/3-1/2 (depends on the recipe, some things lose structure if you cut too much sugar). I’ve also been playing around with more whole wheat and bran. I’ve got a killer whole wheat, bran, reduced sugar blueberry muffin I’ve been making lately. I do have a weakness for a mug of hot chocolate with some whipped cream at night but even then I’m making my own whipped cream with very little and sometimes no sugar

      Greatest lesson I learned about taking care of your health from a health care professional at a conference one year

      It doesn’t matter what you do, as long as you’re trying … anything is better than nothing

      Keep it going and it’s good you’re doing things now in your 20s, I wish I had, but I’m catching up and doing my best. Stay safe, stay well and I’m happy for you
