Does anyone know some fun or life hacks to use while doing the one bite at a time challenge? Anything is a good idea for me😂
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Yes! Try eating with your non dominant hand - it's super hard to eat quickly. You can also try to put your utensil down between each bite as a good reminder to finish your bite before the next one.

Can you chew gum while on this challenge?

What counts as water?
Does tea count as a glass of water since it's like herbs steeped in water? Does sparkling water count as a glass of water?
-

Soda Substitute: What's a good substitute for soda? What drinks?

Lotta I drink water and sometimes put fruit and berries in it :) Sparkling water seems to be a popular alternative, but I personally hate the taste :D

DietID_TeamDietitians @RegannePreece - I totally agree with @Lotta. Putting frozen fruit in water or sparkling water is a great way to add flavor without added sugar. I also like hot cinnamon tea. The cinnamon has...

DietID_TeamDietitians @jessicaf this looks delish! @ken it's so good to hear you're cutting down on sugar in coffee. Beverages are one of the biggest culprits for added sugar. Cutting down by 2/3 is a huge step forward!...
