SUGARRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!


OK here it is!
I've gone without sugar for 3 weeks...

Week 1......
I did ok. I didn't eat cookies, cake, muffins, bread, or put sugar in my coffee...

Week 2.....
I started to question myself.....I only juiced and ate veggies and salads...
End of Week 2......
I cried!!!!

Week 3 
I came out on top feeling great.

The biggest changes are...

When I go to bed, I sleep allllllllllll night long.
No more restless legs
I wake up with out my joints feeling hot, swollen, and achy
I don't have the "Lay down and die sleepy" feeling in the afternoon
I lost 6 lbs. 

I also have to mention that alot of my improvements have come from the fact that I no longer have
caffeine in my diet!

I am eating more fruits and veggies, juicing alot, and eating whatever I can in raw form.
I say all of this to tell you..... this is my new favorite blog....
I was able to eat some really yummy food thanks to her recipes
Like the one above! 

I did stay away from honey, maple syrup, and other natural sweeteners for the 3 weeks

I only use natural sweeteners now, even in my canning.

Don't be surprised to see ALOT of sweets being posted in the next couple of months.....
I do still cook for an army and none of them are going off sugar anytime too soon!!
