Well almost at the end of day three without sugar. Less honey consumed today and no dates scoffed. I did however have a bit of fruit juice (no sugar or additives), due to a BBQ, which I won't normally do and 3 bread rolls (healthy homemade ones that is). Yes the bread craving has increased a bit. :(
One great thing that I have noticed is my complexion appears a bit 'fresher', if that is even a way of describing it! Really it is just that my face, on passing the mirror, just seems a bit less drawn and aged than before I cut out the sugar. Ultimately though when you decide to eliminate sugar from your diet you are opting for much healthier food options while water (aside from today) is the mainstay liquid. That has to impact on the body in a good way. I'm looking forward to my run tomorrow to see if it has any impact.
My initial challenge was to go for 3 days without sugar and since I have managed to do this I am going to keep going a bit longer. I'm the kind of person that the starting is the hardest bit and if I stop now it will be a feeding frenzy! Better to wait till the sugar craving stop completely I think before I indulge again.
