After being super honest with myself, I have decided to cut out more things in order to truly follow MWL guidelines. I have completely cut out sugar and salt (bye condiments), and all sources of plant fats. I also have lowered my fruit consumption because I could easily eat fruit all day! Berries and cherries are less temping to snack on so I have lots of those handy to eat for desserts and only allow a mango with my breakfast oatmeal.
Instead of salt, sugar and condiments I am using vinegar, lemon/lime and Well Your World sauces. Occasional nutritional yeast. Those sauces average 30 calories per couple tablespoons, sweetness coming from dates. Does anyone find any issue with these?
I also am considering ordering from California Balsamic, especially for the savory ones, but I recall Jeff's article on balsamic vinegar being a little "too good", possibly ringing too many pleasure center bells. I certainly don't want that! But also wondering if the Well Your World sauces could be similar?
I don't want to justify keeping anything in my diet if it will hinder my progress. Appreciate your thoughts!
