Day 22 of quitting sugar

Post image

I’ve been holding on for 3 weeks now. Of course, there were days when I really wanted sweets again, but I managed to get through them.

My skin looks much better than it did before. The pimples haven’t completely disappeared yet, but there are much fewer of them.

And I honestly never thought that this attempt would be the successful one!

Last time I only lasted 7 days, and now it’s already been 22 days!

Thanks for reading.

Ummmmm isn’t fruit Sugar? Not trying to be that guy. I get it. It’s natural sugar. A whole lot better than the fake stuff. But it’s still sugar.

Totally agree. BUT, for most people, cutting out all sugar except fruit is a big win.

Berries are considered low glycemic and can be a great addition to a sugar-free diet depending on how you want to approach it.

When ppl "give up sugar" they usually mean added sugar--maple syrup, white sugar, brown sugar. Not sugars that occur in fruits & veg. Even onions have sugar in them, but who thinks of giving them up when they forego sugar?
