I need a full cup of tea to start my day- Grapevine

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

I'm addicted to having tea everyday to the point I get withdrawal symptoms if I miss

Non sweet tea irks me, but processed sugar is not good

Can you suggest alternatives? "Healthy"

Google suggested honey 😒 dumb
Also me don't like cinnamon, so that option gone

Sugar alternatives in milk tea?

Had a regular yearly check up 2 weeks back and found that I'm diabetic. Both my parents are diabetic and I assumed I'll be as well at some point in my life as an inheritance from them but never thought this early. I did not tell this to anyone, not even my wife. Took me 2 weeks to get hold of myself and let the feeling sink in.
Started making changes to my life style since yesterday and started working out as well. Today is Day-2.

Health scare at 35

My Experience:

2 years back I was detected Pre-diabetic. Cut down consumption of white sugar to zero. Cut down on any food that has White Sugar in it (Biscuits, Ice Cream, Desserts, cold drinks, etc.). Became conscious of reading ingedrients/Contain's part when I buy any packed food. 

Developed habit of walking 8K steps or burning 150Kcal after dinner. My glycemic levels are now normal. I am no longer a pre-diabetic. This can be managed with active lifestyle. White sugar is a poison. Rely on Fruits to fulfill the glucose levels of your body. 

PS: After 2 years I've started consuming food having white sugar occasionally ( on Diwali or Holi and that too in limits). Never restricted myself from consuming naturally sweet fruits (Banana, Mango, Apple, etc.).

For me 5 - I start by 11 and end by 7 but take an hour lunch break, 4-5 tea/coffee breaks and some gossips - I tracked one day and it was 5.2 hrs.


What about you?

How many hours do you actually work per day?

I have adhd so I don't (read : can't) work until 2 days before sprint is about to get over then wrap the stuff up with anywhere between 8-10 hours pn both days.
