I have started a weight loss program and one of the things that
the company recommends is for those that are looking to lose the maximum
amount of weight during the first 30 days of the program that they
abstain from consuming sugar and sugar substitutes. It is very
interesting to think that you can achieve weight loss by removing sugar
from your diet and yet here I am after one week of having nothing with
sugar, including fruit, and I have lost roughly one pound per day. Am I
suggesting that your results will be the same as my results if you
remove sugar from your diet? I couldn't possibly have the answer to that
because I am not a doctor.
With that being said, let me tell you what I am so that you can understand why I am taking the time to share my experiences with you. I am a person that was diagnosed in 2012 as being pre-diabetic. What this means is that I was already beginning to lose my ability to process sugar. It was a frightening revelation because I had witnessed those I loved in the past becomes ravaged by this condition and I was dangerously close to walking in their shoes.
