Read More »On Monday, I posted about how Alex and I are doing a little “sugar detox” after watching Fed Up, and a few people have asked what our groceries looked like. Grocery shopping was tricky because we had to check labels on everything. We made one grocery trip to Kroger on Saturday and one to Trader Joe’s on Tuesday. I’ll divide up our list based on what was easy to buy and what took a little bit of digging. I’ve also included the brands we found with no added sugars.

Read More »Some things didn’t surprise me at all. (Of course, most cereal has sugar in it.) But SO many frozen/pre-packaged dinners we looked at had added sugar in them. Maybe that shouldn’t be surprising since I’m usually skeptical of packaged food anyway, but the fact that it was in almost everything was pretty eye-opening. I’m glad we found a few options without sugar since it’s nice to have those things on hand for busy evenings. We’ve been trying to tackle a lot of house projects lately so sometimes making dinner doesn’t happen. Having some frozen options on hand makes it a lot easier! I should also mention, I purchased the book I Quit Sugar, and it arrived last night! Even though we’re not necessarily following the 8-week detox plan, I’ve enjoyed it so far. It’s taught me even more about how our bodies respond to different types of sugar, and I think the recipes will be beneficial. If you’re interested in a full review of the book, let me know! I loved all your comments on my thoughts on the Fed Up Documentary & my Sugar-Free Meals this week! It sounds like a lot of people have given up sugars on Whole 30 so I might have to check out some of your recipes! Unfortunately, Whole 30 isn’t super vegetarian-friendly, but I bet there are still some excellent meals I could try! Need a little more motivation to give up sugar? Check out this TED talk about why we can’t stop eating unhealthy foods.
