I saw the word "gluten" on there and I wonder if that has something to do with sugar. The bread isn't gluten-free but the pasta is. Wow, this opens up a whole new world for me, eating-wise, and, uh, eating wise! Yeah, I know, I'm corny.LT Gotohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15424574993028588243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10521454.post-50913259054047883682007-03-12T17:43:00.000-07:002007-03-12T17:43:00.000-07:00Unfortunately, "no sugar" does mean "no alcohol." ...Unfortunately, "no sugar" does mean "no alcohol." I love bread, so I eat spelt or brown rice breads instead. There's also spelt pita bread and spelt tortillas, so I really am not deprived at all. I also eat non-wheat pasta; the Tinkyada brand is the best (not gummy) brown rice pasta. These are available at Wild Oats and Whole Foods. Not sure about Trader Joe's; haven't been there for a while. I think it's wheat that makes me gain weight and it's sugar that kills my energy. You can do this test: Go without sugar for a week and then eat a donut. I get a headache within a few minutes.

For general health and weight loss, I do the cleanse that was custom-made for me (I told you about this before): no wheat, no sugar. I'm actually doing it right now, and I'm losing a pound every 2 days . . . plus I'm eating whatever I want, as long as it's not wheat or sugar. My energy is up and I feel like I'm treating my body with great love and care, whereas with the MC, I just felt like I was punishing it.K.
