It makes me angry that you call my effort a "bogus" trial. I meant 30 days without processed sugar. I did not say anything about natural sugars in fruit or about giving up carbs.

Perhaps it is easy for someone else to go 30 days without processed sugar. For me it was a huge challenge. I set out to do it and I succeeded.

Never did I say I was abstaining from natural sugars found in fruit or abstaining from carbs. I never will say that because the body loves fruit, and needs carbs.

I shared my journey with others so I could inspire and be inspired.

Don't judge me.
Hey.. I'm not judging you. I'm just pointing out something very basic about sugar that you seem to have gleamed over in this trial. To me (I am entitled to have an opinion, no?) going without sugar doesn't include eating fruit OR sweet veggies like carrots or sweet potatoes. Listen, sugar is sugar and it all has the same detrimental effects on the body no matter what form it comes in. The information is out there, it's just a matter of doing research.

and Please.. if you're going to quote me, don't take what I say out of context by zeroing in on half of what I say and totally disregarding the rest.. I mean that's just such a fox news thing to do.
