You\u2019ve got to make smart choices.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Enhance the flavors of naturally healthful foods.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Swap out sugar for sucralose and other nonnutritive sweeteners in smoothies, yogurt, oatmeal and other recipes for fruits, vegetables and whole grains. This way you can sweeten them to your taste and benefit from a host of health-boosting foods, explains Claudia Shwide-Slavin, MS, RD, BC-ADM, CDE, co-author of <i>The Ultimate Guide to Sugars and Sweeteners<\/i>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Don\u2019t justify desserts.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s smart to save 150 or so calories by drinking a diet drink, but that\u2019s no excuse to have it with a slice of cheesecake or other high-calorie dessert. Limit desserts and other nutrient-poor foods to just now and then, and keep your portions small.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Don\u2019t assume sugar-free means low calorie.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Depending on what you\u2019re buying, sugar-free grocery items may or may not be low in calories. Always read the Nutrition Facts panel on foods labels, urges Shwide-Slavin. Be sure to check the serving size first because every other nutrition facts number relates to the serving size.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Remember that a little here and a little there add up to something bigger.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>When adding a tablespoon of sugar or honey to a dish, you consume an extra 45 \u2013 60 calories. That may not sound like much until you tally the extra calories over a week or a month. It may not sound like much to omit a tablespoon of added sugar either, but imagine the calorie savings long term. Now it seems like a smart idea to trim those added sugars.<\/p>\n<p>Successful weight management takes determination, creativity, energy and tons of hard work. It\u2019s good to know that sugar substitutes can help.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-accordion\">\n<div class=\"su-spoiler su-spoiler-style-default su-spoiler-icon-plus su-spoiler-closed\">\n<div class=\"su-spoiler-title\">Resources<\/div>\n<div class=\"su-spoiler-content su-clearfix\">\n<p>Peters JC, et al<a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1002\/oby.20737\">. <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1002\/oby.20737\">The effects of water and non<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1002\/oby.20737\">&#8211;<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1002\/oby.20737\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">nutritive sweetened beverages on weight loss and weight maintenance:<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1002\/oby.20737\">A Randomized Clinical Trial<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1002\/oby.20737\">. <\/a>Obesity (Silver Spring). 2016; 24: 297-304<\/p>\n<p>Phelan S, Lang W, Jordan D, Wing RR. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC2771213\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Use of artificial sweeteners and fat-modified foods in weight loss maintainers and always-normal weight individuals.\u00a0<\/a><em>Int J Obes (Lond)<\/em>. 2009;33(10):1183-1190. doi:10.1038\/ijo.2009.147<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><i><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/sucralose.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/jill.jpg\" \/><\/i>Jill Weisenberger, MS, RDN, CDE, FAND is a registered dietitian nutritionist and diabetes educator in SE Virginia and a paid contributor to Sucralose.org.
