Oh yes - another thing for those who think it's hard to shop right!
Look at the label where it says what is in the thing you are holding. Check that there is NO SUGAR in it. Check that there is no CREAM in it. Finally check that there is less than 10% FAT in it.
Then it's all good!
I lost 5 kilo in 4 weeks just by doing this and I hadn't even started exercising then
When I first started eating healthy I was shocked at how much food had added sugar. It is a taste reinforcer and therefore put into a lot of things, even ketchup! So check it all and get used to buying the right ingredients.
I think you have a lot of things with artificial sweetener in them. We don't know yet what they do to our bodies, some say Aspartam (Diet Coke and Pepsi) give cancer, but we don't know for sure. I am personally not willing to take the chance and stay away from all products with ANY artificial sweetener, but the choice is up to you...it's a gamble...
Good luck shopping!
