It's been fine so far, but I have already faced a couple challenges. Fortunately, I was able to hold out and stick to my guns, not caving in to sugar or non-paleo foods. I passed by a bowl of holiday chocolates at the office, and I declined wine while out to dinner. Now, the weekend, on and upwards! It's only four days in, so this is the easy part. Cravings are just starting to creep in, but I think week 2 will be the toughest. I just keep telling myself how great it will feel when I've completed the 21 Day Sugar Detox, and I no longer feel like a slave to chocolate! Once I get there...
Now, I am not giving up sweets forever. No way! I just want to kick the habit, and it seems like Diane Sanfilippo has come up with a successful program for doing so. As always, it's really just sticking to real foods, as they're found in nature (except fruit and a few others), and eating as much of those foods as I like. The goal is to stop depending on sugar for energy. Learn more about it at the21daysugardetox.com, where she explains the reasons behind it, describes the program itself, and offers many testimonials. I hope I can experience similarly pleasing results!
Wish me luck, and have a great weekend!

I read your post about Paleo, and I wondered if you had some suggestion for Paleo meals to take to work. I suppose I could make the ones that require prep, and then just reheat them. But I guess I'm just looking for something that's easy and simple to prepare! LOL
ReplyDeleteYou are so strong, girl. The 21 Day Sugar Detox sounds super interesting to me, and I might look into it. I can't wait to see how you do with it. And thanks for the links! You've got a good batch in here. :)
ReplyDeleteStay strong! Passing on sugar (and wine!) isn't easy, but it sounds like you're doing well!!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you are doing well on the detox! Way to pass up those chocolates and wine! Those sound so good right now... I have been tempted with fruit a little this week. Not that I really want it, but I see it around and forgetting that I am detoxing and ALMOST take a little nibble until I stop myself. Haha! Keep it up momma!
