On today’s episode of Live Lean TV, we share if we eat sugar, candy, and pie.
This is another great episode from our #WayBackWednesday series, where we highlight the best questions from previous episodes of our #AskLiveLeanTV Q&A show.
This question is from #AskLiveLeanTV Ep. 002.
ciscoballs says from snapchat: do you guys ever have candy or soda? I remember a second channel video from your BGTV videos where you say that you’ve lost the taste for soda. I’m the same way for most sweets. Just wondering if you incorporate unhealthy desserts as a cheat meal throughout the year?
We totally do.
For example, Jessica loves eating Thanksgiving pie at my mom’s house.
But when it comes to drinking soda, both Jessica and I could care less.
Although Jessica likes drinking sparkling water, she doesn’t like soda as she finds it tastes like syrup and is too sweet.
Just add a little fruit or a squeeze of lemon or lime with sparkling water, and it’s great.
I don’t usually like carbonation drinks, but if I do have one, I like sugar-free Rockstars.
Here’s the deal I’m an energy junkie and I love caffeine.
But I always get the sugar free kind since the sugar is way too much for me.
I hate the feeling of the sugary film on your teeth right after drinking a sugary drink.
The only sweetener we use is stevia, but sometimes artificial sweeteners are better than going for the real sugar.
You don’t have to be perfect!
We’ve been making homemade popsicles lately because we still do have a sweet tooth sometimes.
Here’s our delicious protein popsicle recipe.
These berry protein popsicles are one of my best high-protein snacks for weight loss, especially here in the summer.
Not only are they delicious, but they will also fulfill your sugar cravings.
We love to make baked goods, using healthy ingredients, like the cookies from our Eat Clean Live Lean cookbook.
There’s also brownies, cookies and bars.
Bottom line.
We don’t want you to think that we never eat candy or sweets, because we definitely have as much of a sweet tooth as the next person.
We just choose healthier choices!
