HEH!! Victory!! Hurray for me I DID IT!! 30 days without sugar!! Did not expect it to be so hard...
What Helped
What really helped was looking forward to telling you all that I had done it.
What also helped was putting a gold star each sugar free day on my steering wheel of the car. In the middle of the steering wheel was an aligator dymo sticker with "30 days sugar free" wriiten proudly on it.
I also researched the numerable diseases and harm that sugar does to our bodies. That really put me off. Just read a little every day.
What was Hard
I was Ok as along as I did not eat with anyone else. Had a lot of social engagements that seemed to involve scrumptious deserts. I found this very challenging. I used "Look away Walk away" which I read from someone on this forum. I am sorry I cannot remember who you are, but thanks so much for sharing that.
One extra hard time when I could not say no, i pretended to eat it and stuffed it into a serviette and then a paper cup. I know it is not ideal, but the best I could do at the time.
I was definately out of my comfort zone. Feel like I have flexed some mind and emotional muscles which will help me push the bar in other areas of my life.
So now I am onto another 30 days sugar free.
Who is with me??
