As a self proclaimed sugar addict I decided to try going 25 days without any added sugar [including honey, agave nectar etc...]. I would like to say that I am doing this for my health but my main motivation is to flatten out my abs, clear my skin and whiten my eyes.
Day 1: Hmm... My coffee with only cream and no sugar is tolerable. I don't miss sugar until about 7:30pm when my craving for a sweet fix hits. I eat a banana with some raw organic peanut butter and am satisfied. Bring it on Day 2!
Day 2: 0.8 lbs down. Woohooo. I go through the day resisting the candy bar at the[fix], snacking on raw almonds and an apple. By the time I get home from work I was famished eat ate half a rotisserie chicken, salad and a sweet potato. No dessert cravings today!
Day 3: I've gone up 0.2 lbs ?!?! Well this is why you are not suppose to weigh yourself everyday, only once a week. Disappointed I wonder if giving up my delicious candy and chocolate is really worth it for such minimal gains.
Day 4: Yes! Overall down 2.2 lbs. Just the motivation I need to continue on. My breakfast of 2.5% organic plain greek yogurt with wild blueberries, banana and walnuts is satisfying and I don't even give the candy bar a second look.
