Just drink a Diet Coke when you eat your sugar. They cancel each other out.

We cut back where we can.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I saw someone do that once and they said they just like the taste of Diet Coke more. 🤷‍♂️

I dont know how people do it, every sugar alternatives I've tried taste like ass: sucralose, aspartame, acesulfame potassium, saccharin, all of them are fucking disgusting.

I'd say sucralose is the most pernicious, I've bought things not labeled as no sugar(Asian countries LOVE using it in random shit) and as soon as that aftertaste hits I gag.

[–] TheRaven@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It’s best to just change your palette so it doesn’t need sugary tastes anyway. If you don’t want sugar substitutes, just change your diet so your body doesn’t expect sweet things at all. That’s a great move.

[–] sebsch@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

This is the way!

Same with coffee or tea. The moment you find the good stuff you easily see there is neither need for sugar nor milk in both of them.

[–] TheRaven@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Everyone looks at me strangely when I ask for 0% sugar in my bubble tea. The pearls already have sugar in them, and when your palette changes, you can taste the tea and milk so much clearer rather than having all of that covered up by the taste of sugar.

[–] DrMango@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Tbh attempting to replace sugar with "sugar alternatives" is part of the problem. The other part of the problem is that commercial goods are sold with a fuckton of super sugar (high fructose corn syrup et al.) added to them which is completely unnecessary. If you just try to get your sugar from natural sources and try to eat some fiber with it (whole fruit is perfect for this) you're on the right track.

The short version is simply: don't drink your sweets

[–] onlyhalfminotaur@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Erythritol is supposedly not bad.

[–] ares35@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

that's one of those sugar alcohols that can do thunderous things.....

And when I'm about to be overcome with feelings of existential dread and rage at the patriarchy, I just reach for my box of Bisquick™

[–] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 2 years ago

Wait this was supposed to be rhetorical needling at ancient propaganda and now you are personally attacking me and my little box 🧐

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago

Sugar fills that hollow feeling in my soul, and isn't that the important thing?

[–] Toneswirly@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Its fat time right now, gonna eat a whole frozen pizza

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 year ago

Don't forget to cover it in sugar for maximum energy.

The cure for fat time .... Fatter time! .... It'll be a race to determine how fast you can get fatter or how rapid we can make your heart pump

Since nobody has mentioned it, if you eat Skittles or gummy bears after a workout it makes you feel so much better, at least in my experience. If I don't eat sugar I feel like I need food urgently.

As usual, life is more complicated than a simple "sugar is always bad". For some details, see this example : https://russhowepti.com/post-workout-haribo-gummy-bears/

[–] harry315@feddit.de 27 points 2 years ago

TL;DR: Eating Haribos after workouts doesn't benefit your body. People who are having controlled treats and cheats during their diet plans may be less obese (correlation). The author of this article concluded there's a causality between eating Haribos after workout and being able to stay on your diet plans based on anectodal knowledge.

[–] Socsa@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

Sugar is highly addictive. If you avoid eating it, you won't crave it

[–] fidodo@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

Huh? It's well known that it's good to have carbs after working out. The problem is when you're just eating carbs without using the energy because then it gets stored as fats.

[–] howrar@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I don't know if the particular comment you responded to is meant as a joke, but in my experience, a sugary drink after a hard workout does feel amazing. I get this post-workout thirst that no amount of water can quench, but a Gatorade will always do the trick.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.mindoki.com 3 points 2 years ago

I have the same but without the workout...

\s

[–] ThirdWorldOrder@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

It’s pretty popular with MMA and other people working out pretty hard. You can also mix glucose powder with some caffeine, OJ, and a tiny bit of salt.

If you’re training for weight loss it might be better to avoid it unless the calories have been accounted for in whatever diet plan you’re using.

[–] ThirdWorldOrder@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Another option instead of gummy bears that people use is a sweet potato although those can be hard to have on hand right after a workout.

You can also buy glucose powder.

You look weak. I recommend you drink some 36% cream. It will give you energy and you won't need that exercise nonsense.

[–] Lennnny@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

This but with eggs.

The fat time of day: youre really hungry and reacy to eat twoof everything, Here's how sugar can help. "If sugar can fill that bollow feling. 'm all for it." The fat time of day'" is when you're over-hungry and want to overcat. Thať's when your appestat" is turned up high. To turn your appestat back to low, take a little sugar in a soft drink, or a candy bar, shortly before mealtime. Sugar turns into encrgy faster than any other food. Sugar helps keep your appetite down, your encrgy up -and-helps slip you safcly past the "fat timc of day." Sugar..only 18 calories per teaspoon, and it's all energy. *"A neural center in the bypothbalamus believed to regulate appetite. "– Webster's Third New International Dictionary.

Now, it turns out, bacon is actually good for you in moderation. Turns out it has the same Omega 3 fat found in healthy fish and other foods, so now they're saying, a healthy diet should include bacon. And sugar, well - a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down, so we do need some sugar in our diet also.
