I say this so many times a day. CARBS ARE SUGAR!!!
Yes! You ARE eating that much sugar.
All carbohydrate breaks down into sugar. Every last gram.
The foods you think are healthy are doing exactly the same thing to your blood glucose as the foods you know are trash. Brown rice versus white rice. Porridge versus Coco Pops. Banana versus a Mars bar. The mechanism is identical.
Your doctor told you to reduce sugar so you swapped white bread for wholemeal. That’s not reducing sugar. That’s rearranging it. You’ve made yourself feel better about the choice without changing what happens at a cellular level.
I lost 107 pounds by removing this one thing. Not by counting calories. Not by running marathons. By understanding that the label doesn’t lie to you, but the marketing around it does.
