  • Sugar just doesn’t do it for me anymore. I’d much rather have a bag of chips or a salt lick than ice cream.

    ⚠️ More information than you require: I grew up on diabetes tea and pretty much cut out all sugar (stopped drinking soda) years ago. I felt 100x better after a few weeks and realized how much sugar I was actually drinking. The adult limit for sugar without trashing your blood sugar is about 28g/12oz. Most soda is in the 38-45g range. Way too much and makes you feel like shit, you just don’t realize it because you’re used to it. After not drinking super sugared drinks for a month you become re-sensitized to sugar and absolutely can’t drink it again. Coke, etc tastes absolutely awful to me now. If I have sweet tea I basically do a 1:4 sweet tea to unsweetened tea ratio.
