All sweets are not bad for the record, there are just certain types of sweets that are healthy to do with out.
Sweets that are bad: pastries, candy, soda, some juices (juice your vegetables and eat your fruits), gum, water ice, ice cream
Sweets that are good: fruits, smoothies, roasted nuts, some juices (juices that have vegetables in them), energy bars, sugarless gum, herbal tea, green tea
Note: This list is not complete, ask if you have any questions
For the juices, I would stick to orange juice, hi-c, prunce juice, cranberry juice, any of the v8 juices including the splashes & fusions, apple juice is okay, and other juices that are obviously healthy. If you want to make your own juices make sure that you have a mixture of fruits and vegetables (the fruits always overpower the vegetables).
Rules that you should follow
- When you have an urge for sweets, go for it as long as you pick the good sweets. Your body has the urge for sweets because it needs them.
- Always carry the good sweets with you, so you are less likely to eat the bad.
- Think about your body. Does it need anymore of the wrong things? Is it going to help me reduce my medical bills in this recessions?
- Pay yourself. Cheat every now and then.
I chew trident, sugar less gum, to get rid of my sugar cravings. It is sweet and is very long lasting. I aslo think of the pros and cons of having certain sweets. I know that certain sweets will cause my skin to break out so, I know to stay away from them. I also might not feel like burning it off.
