Never had a sweet tooth to start with but I replace all sugar with monk fruit and erythritol blends like Lakanto (taste same as table sugar unlike Stevia).

Made a big difference already. Then I’ve cut all simple carbohydrates or non-soluble fiber and unlike the low carb craze, increased my high soluble fiber intake from low GI whole grains like steel cut oat. Keeps me full for a while, low calorie, and I don’t feel sluggish.

I don’t eat anything above 50 on the GI scale. Once a week I might have pasta.

No fruits because of fructose but lots of vegetables.

No drinks containing sugar like sweetened Almond drink but I keep the milk because the fat and the protein helps feeling satiated.

Basically I lost about 20 pounds over 3 months and I’ve maintained the loss for 2 years now.
