Weekly Sugar Challenge: Week of June 28, 2010

June 28, 2010 Comments (2)

The difficulty of this week’s sugar challenge depends on you and your plans because this week’s mission is to refuse dessert.

If you’re out at a restaurant, over someone’s house, or just looking for something sweet after dinner at home, resist the urge to splurge. Don’t eat dessert after dinner, after lunch or after any meal. What about snacks? That’s up to you. But if the snack could be considered dessert in the traditional sense of the word (the sweet course eaten at the end of a meal) then abstain.

Boom! Sounds easy, right? Well it’s not! The weekly sugar challenge lasts for one week and includes this coming holiday weekend. That means no dessert on July 4th! For some of you the thought of not eating sweets on a holiday is sacrilegious. However, I’d like to put forth that this coming weekend is just another day like any other. What would be the harm of not eating dessert? Would you really not be able to have a good time?

Good luck and let us know how you do!

I have quit sugar a few times in the past.  I always felt great while doing it but somehow fell off the wagon and never got back on.  I set my own challenge to declare independence from sugar beginning July 2nd.  It’s only been 48 hours but already I’m seeing the rewards.  I woke this morning feeling more alert even after going to bed later than usual.  I’m taking it one day at a time but I feel optimistic that I’ll be off sugar for the rest of my life.  It just isn’t worth it!

About Me

I realized I had a sugar problem back in 2003 after a weekend-long binge on raw chocolate chip cookie dough and chocolate covered pretzels. As a result, I began trying to quit sugar but kept failing. Finally, I figured out a way to stay off sweet junk food for good.
