After reading a few books about the evils of sugar and the truth about just how bad it is for our bodies, not to mention how it is making us all fat, I decided to start making more of an effort to cut down and really pay attention to what I was eating.
Although I'm now more aware it's not really helping as I am still, like most people, an addict. Sugar is more addictive than crack cocaine and it is everywhere making it tricky to avoid unless you really want to.
So cutting down obviously hasn't worked which leaves me with one last option: to break my addiction and adopt a sugar free lifestyle!
It's not as grim as it sounds, sugar free means less than 10g of sugar a day not including whole fruits and unprocessed dairy. Fruits in their natural, off the plant state contain fibre which slows the release of the natural sugars. Milk and unprocessed cheese are also fine unless you are lactose intolerant, which I am not. The sugars I will be eliminating will be the refined kind, anything added and those that do no good.
Starting tomorrow I will be breaking my addiction. It's not going to be an easy journey and withdrawal will be horrible. Which is why I want to share it with you all. Whether you are just curious, want to try it yourself or just want to enjoy my pain, please join me here for the ups and downs of going sugar free
