Last week I decided it was time to say goodbye to sugar for the most part. It's day 6 today and I feel so much better for it, it's quite amazing really.
I went cold turkey rather than slowly (I'm all for ripping the bandaid off) and after a nasty headache on day 2 I'm happy to say that now I feel great...heaps more alert, heaps more in control of what I'm eating and heaps and heaps surprised that I've made it this far without any of my favourite sweet treats.
If you're interested you should read this...it's really helpful!

I was thinking about it (after having read that post of her blog) but I am still working on dairy-free, have just decided to go full gluten-free, and figure I will low sugar by default. Once I have adjusted to the other changes, I think sugar free is just what I need.
ReplyDeleteGood luck! Hey, how's that gorgeous family of yours? Got that baby-princess settling/ putting down drama sorted yet? The 'shh-pat' method worked for our little diva, but then we had to keep it up for years... she still likes a little bum-patting at times even at 6!
We've done that, too. Day 23 here. I like Sarah's blog but also found Sweet Poison really helpful.
ReplyDeleteYay Sam! That's fantastic!
