This is the second day

of sugar withdrawals for me. I made the mistake of drinking Mike's Hard Lemonade, one a day, for a week. Even though I knew it had sugar in it, I had no idea that each bottle had almost 8 tsp of sugar.😱

Anyway, I have been off sugar ,and all sweeteners for years, but I thought it would be ok to have one of these wonderfully awesome drinks a day, until..... I started to feel just terrible. It took me a couple of days to figure out that this was because I was back on the sugar.




So, once more, I get to go through sugar withdrawals. 🙄Today, I am feeling a bit off, and very emotional. For this reason, I am probably going to be a little quieter on here today. The good part is that this should all be over in less than a week. I hope.😐

I am going to revisit this post. I am currently in the first few days of starting a sugar/fats/salt free diet (as much free-from as I can muster) so I shall need to watch the video (and to read the other comments).

@Achelois This is true. Your body does need a certain amount of salt, but just like many other foods, it must be consumed in moderation.🙂

It's good to see this because I NEED salt and pepper on tomato slices :D

But it's bye bye to potato chips and Cheetos (that sort of junk)

Yeah I eat clean, sugar is the one to cut out, they’ll hide it in everything.

I quit smoking Feb 8, 2005 (what would've been my mother's 100th birthday. I quit drinking July 31 of last year (hoping this one in particular works out) and now this diet alteration (this may prove more difficult to stick with than the other two).
