I think it's near impossible to completely eliminate sugar. Are you going to refuse eating a birthday cake someone baked for you? For me, the goal was to get to the point where I don't need sugar. I'm close...

Just wanted to add: Be careful snacking on dried fruits. These go down very easily & may add up very quickly. Many of them have high GI. Also watch out for dried fruits & berries that may be soaked in high fructose corn syrup. Read the labels or bins(Craisins & blueberries come to mind). Breaks my heart when I see these already delicious berries soaked in that stuff :( <strong>@PNW Fitness: Great advice. I hardly ever eat dried fruits. occasionally I throw a handful of raisins on a salad or have a few dried prunes but I try to limit the stuff. Much prefer fresh juicy fruit anyway....</strong> Great starter guide Chris.
