#3 Avoid adding table sugar to foods. If you can’t bare the thought of eliminating sugar from your morning coffee or breakfast cereal, try cutting the amount in by half.  Then reduce that amount by half and before long you will eating food without adding any additional sugar.

#8 Watch out for hidden sugar.  Make sure to read your labels. Sugar is added to many products even though it’s not needed.  Sugar lurks in bread, tomato sauces, ketchup, canned food and even diet meals.  Stick to products that don’t contain sugar.


#9 Reconsider Dessert.  Instead of sugar-laden cake, cookies and candy go for fresh fruit or yogurt.  If you’re not hungry don’t eat it!
