I had how many teaspoons of sugar?!?!?

Having seen the sugar movie, I decided that I would try and keep my processed sugars to 6 tsp/day. Since I am not going to count fruit and vegetables, this seemed reasonable. After all, I watch everything I eat!

WOW!

It was not easy! Breakfast was my normal oatmeal, 1/2 cup milk and 1 tsp sugar. So, I thought, that equals one. Nope. Turns out milk has sugar which equals about 1.5 tsps. So my super healthy breakfast already took 2 tsp.

I ended up eating a lot of whole foods which is great! I was more carb heavy than I would normally be but I wasn't hungry either. There is one tsp for every 6 grams of sugar so I ate 7 teaspoons on my first day. I thought that was pretty good. We will see what the scale says....
