Here is some info on helping sugar/carb cravings – there’s a free downloable sheet down the page – http://goodfoodeating.org/5826/sugar-cravings/

Truvia isn’t too bad, but it’s best to try not to overdo sugar substitutes. One packet isn’t going to bust the bank. But you can also just get used to eating different foods instead, it’s better for you. For example, swapping cereal for a veggie filled omelet.

Just keep taking small steps forward every day, things will only keep getting better an better. Supplements help a lot too. You might find this helpful http://goodfoodeating.org/11041/supplements-for-inflammation/

Take care :)

I am 67 years old and trying to change my eating habits at my age is difficult but little by little I’m changing things. I’ve learned from your emails that almost everything I’ve eaten all my life is wrong and I thought I was eating healthy.

What started this change I’ve been going to Physical Therapy for a hip problem and everywhere my therapist touches me it is painful. He felt that I have lots of inflamation that is causing this so he gave me some information on what to eat for inflamation but I wanted to learn more so I found you. I’m glad I did because you explain it in the right way…easy!

I know I’m a ‘carb addict’ so that is my hardest to change AND I crave sweets. So what is one thing I can do to help with these cravings? I never use regular sugar but I used Nutra Sweet for years and now I’m using Truvia only on my cereals. Is that so bad? I hate using regular sugar for the calories. I can’t eat cereal without some sweetness to it. I’ve use to use two packages but I only use one now. Should I not use it at all?

I got my husband to eat like me since he does most of the cooking and that helps. Most of the time we have protein and 2 veg for dinner. So we have very little carbs. I’m a meat and potato gal but I know potatoes can only be eaten occasionally and most of the time we eat Sweet potato now.

Again…keep up the good work for those of us who don’t know what we are doing. I do feel ‘some’ of the pain isn’t as bad but still have a long way to go.

Thanks for all the information…
Sarah DeBold
