Back to regular raw vegan diet Grains turn into sugar

I ran out of HCG, so I’ve just tried to stick with Raw Vegan until I have the money for more Hcg. I started noticing I do not want the sweet form of green smoothies. I’m still craving the greens, but not the sweetness. So, I’ve tried several different recipes. I found one I really like and I’ll post it later. It’s more like soup.
I started noticing I’m not craving sweets anymore. Not even when people eat them in front of me. I used to have to have something sweet before bed. I think it was because it made me sleepy and helped me sleep more deeply. But, now I sleep very deep and sound all night long without waking up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom.
But, I also notice I now have an addiction to corn chips. It started when I made fresh salsa which is healthy and I bought natural sea salt corn chips to go with it. It hasn’t seemed to bother my blood pressure. But, I get to the point when I’m out, all I can think about is getting more. I just have to have more chips. And I’m going through a lot of bags lately.
Then, I read an article on Dr. Mercola’s web site. O.K. grains turn into sugar! I thought I was over my sugar addiction, but now I realize I’ve just changed the source. So, when I’m done with my last bag of chips today (You didn’t expect me to throw them away, did you?), I’m not going to buy any more. I’m going to dehydrate some zucchini and yellow squash and use them as my chips and I’ll also make some flax crackers too. That should help me wean off of the chip cravings. I’ll post those recipes too. It would be interesting to see if this brings my blood sugar down more.
