I’m getting used to the tea having no sweet by this time, and my chocolate cravings have been mild thank goodness! I’ve been focusing more on eating more veggies, and have a big batch of sprouts coming to life on the counter.

I think the term “sugar free” and “no sugar” is kind of subjective. For me, my main goal is to reduce my daily intake significantly, which I feel I’ve done well with so far. I had already cut out pop and most other sweets.

The easiest and best place to start when trying to get healthy is your shopping trip.
STOP BUYING THE JUNK!
A doctor I follow online always says to never rely on your own willpower alone, because you need to stop having it in the house. Plain and simple. I had found that to be true before I ever heard of that doctor so it was a nice confirmation to what I already knew.

It’s like quitting drugs, you can’t hang out with other addicts all day and expect never to relapse. Or quitting smoking and having a job where they all go out and smoke at lunch, leaving you alone.
It’s simply too tempting. You have to do what you need to do to keep yourself mentally and physically healthy. Sometimes that can mean creating distance between old friends, looking for a new job or a place to live.
The best way to break free of things that control us is to take away its power. Our presence and attention.

It’s much easier for me to eliminate temptation at the sources they stem from, you may find the same.

Anyhooo...
Hope you’re all taking care!
Stock up on some emergency food if you’re able!
