Thanks for this! I’ve been looking at ways to make changes in our daily life, but all the plans I’ve found are so restrictive and the meal plans are ridiculous- sorry I don’t have the time or budget for most of their recipes. Your lifestyle seems simple, real life, and guilt free.

Thank you for your excellent blog and for this article, in particular. I need to eat less sugar, too, and had never heard of the Zero Sugar Diet until reading your piece. Thanks for the suggestion! I just read a sample of the book and agree–it’s well researched, interesting and do-able. (Did you know the author is coming out with a Zero Sugar Cookbook in the new year, as well?) I hope you’ll write more about your experience with this and keep sharing low-sugar recipes and ideas. You are a talented writer and have wonderful ideas. I don’t read a lot of blogs (I’m actually a work-from-home writer/illustrator, myself!), but yours is going on my list. Keep up the good work!

In reply to Charles. The BBQ sauce thing is truly insane! Thanks for your info! I haven't gotten to the point of worrying about carbs yet, though I may at some point because I know they process like sugar (or something like that...). We get mini whole wheat bagels, so they're super small and at least are made with whole grains. I'll have to start looking into our carbs more next. Thank you for your comment!!

Hi! I love your tips for living (mostly) simple.
Like you, I’ve changed my diet, I’m not ‘ON’ a diet, and my diet contains very low sugar. I can’t believe the added sugar in BBQ sauce and SO many (but not all) spaghetti sauce. And yes, I have discovered the glory that IS spaghetti squash.
I have just one comment to add to your suggestions, and I’m not a doctor or nutritionist, so this is only a suggestion. The amount sugar from the carbs in a single bagel is off the charts. I have voluntarily chosen to limit my ‘starchy carb’ intake, and a single bagel contains almost twice the carbs I generally consume in an entire day. I have no medical restrictions to my diet. I choose to eat the way I do, and like you, I try to hit it 90-95% of the time.
Thank you again !
