Today is my last day on the sugar detox. I'd like to come up with some long term goals - something like having dessert once a week (Sundays are treat days at our house) and then give myself the option of one other treat during the week (like if you are at a party or something). While I'm on vacation, I need to come up with a bit more flexibility but I think I can keep things under control. What is everyone else planning to do at the end of sugar detox. Amy, are you still on board??
I think one thing very surprising was how often I was putting stuff into my mouth without even thinking about it. Treats I don't even like and that aren't worth the extra sugar. I hope that I will be able to maintain control on this and not eat junky food that isn't even satisfying. I know that at least, my sugar craving has gone down. I had a glass of very sweet juice yesterday and I didn't even like it. This has been such a good way to jump start my plans of living healthy. Thanks for the support everyone. I'd love support as I continue on the journey. :)

Congratulations on making it three whole weeks!! Today would be my last day as well, but my husband and I decided to go for four weeks. I'm hoping that by going a little longer it will help me cut down my cravings even more. We'll see. I do kind of wish I was done! You'll have to keep posting and let us know how you are doing now that you can eat sugar again.
Two more days to go for me, and I have been thinking about what to do after. I also didn't really realize how many times I would automatically think I needed to go and get a treat. When I was bored, stressed, or just hungry, that would always be the first thing on my mind. I think that what I am going to do is have a lot more healthier options of snacks, and then eat treats sparingly. Moderation is the key. But I do think the hard thing will be keeping it moderate and not going overboard. But I do know that if it gets out of control again, I can always make it through another 21 sugar free days!
