Plain Greek yogurt with chia seeds makes a great #nosugar #breakfast
-
annefood Awesome @ellieks !
-
Brianne I like to toss in some bananas and nuts for added texture. I took me a couple tries to get used to the texture of chia seeds, but now I love it.

melaniegong No sugar! Yay!
Replace saturated fats from butter, lard, pastries,cream with unsaturated fats found in vegetable oils, nuts, seeds, oily fish and avocados.
-
annefood Great tip !
-
SuzanneM 100% agree with this tip. I know there is a lot of info out there about fat making a comeback. But it's not about any fat. We need to be eating healthy fat!

darkchocolatepeanutbutter Love the tip @evasu! I just to clarify that a vegetable oil like coconut oil can also be saturated but it is still a great alternative.
Is stevia okay to sweeten my coffee since it is a plant?
-
meghanmjacobs Awesome! I can't do black coffee alone 😝

-
melaniegong Yes! Stevia is from a plant. As long as you don't mind the taste:)

It's hard not to eat desserts because they taste so good but I know it will be bad for me in the long run. How can I stop craving desserts?
-
purplebatman You can throw out or give away any of your dessert food so you don't have it in your house. It will reduce the cravings as you do not see the food every day.

nicoleigh Sliced strawberries cooked in the oven on a low temperature for a few hours are pretty tasty :)

Emy @kristinamlynar feel you ! Having the same problem over here... It's so hard, because all those tasty little desserts are just delicious ...! 😅
Does a bagel have sugar in?
No sugar at breakfast

Lazy_Nash I think it doesn't , but to be sure check in the internet

Queen_Ashley No😂

Nainiac Actually most bagels are made with added sugar.... For instance a Panera plain bagel has brown sugar in it. Dunkin and Einstein also add sugar. I was bummed and surprised to learn that myself!!
I've been drinking apple cider vinegar to stop my cravings but it didn't quite work. It has been a week. Was goes wrong?
-
annefood Hey @fitorious ! Have you tried drinking sparkling water with pieces of fruit in it? That helps me when I'm craving something sugary. Also, check out the Avoid Sugar Guidebook...
-
GGShah I've never tried vinegar, but what has worked for me is to have sparkling water always around. I realized my soda addiction was really about the fizz. Now I've just gotten creative with what I put...

darkchocolatepeanutbutter I definitely agree with @annefood! If you have any favorite teas, you can drink those hot or cold.
So are Breakfast essentials good for breakfast?

doublek23 I'm in love with Ancient Harvest Quinoa Flakes! They are full of protein, don't have gluten, and is similar to oatmeal. Add some butter and toasted coconut flakes to it and it makes a great...
