Could you spend a day without any sugar?

I'm eating an ice cream sandwich as I type this. Sugar is nothing to fear, carbs are nothing to fear ( unless someone has a medical condition )
So I wouldn't have any reason to want to cut down on sugar. I eat everything in moderation . it hasn't stopped my progress any.
I wouldn't reccomend someone to eat all ice cream every single day, but I also wouldn't reccomend someone to eat all lettuce every single day either. It comes down to moderation .0 -

This is what I was thinking. I don't see how it's possible.

veg and fruit are very nutritious...so I wouldn't even bother trying...it's ridiculous.0

For a single day? Indeed I can, and in fact I have! In some dark times as a student, the day before student loans came in, all I had was four steaks and I ate them all.
The morning bowel movement the following day wasn't especially fun, but I didn't feel even remotely bad on the day itself. Bit of a meat sweat going on, but that's it.
I do not recommend this as a long term strategy to anyone0 -
I do it sometimes, but that's just because I'm in a meat mood. Although I do keto, I still get a few carbs and carbs are sugar. I don't really do added sugar though. A touch here and there, but sugar is a trigger food for me so I avoid.0

yup i could go a day without sugar of any kind but, it would require me to stay in bed for the whole day!
there's just no way i could totally go sugar free when even the 2% milk i put in my wake-me-up mug of coffee has a gram of sugar in it!!
i gave up my 1/4 cp of added sugar in my mug of coffee and try to avoid some things with added sugar in them but, there's no way i am given up anything else with non added sugar in it for even an hour, let alone a day.0 -
My answer is no and I wouldn't want to.0

But why?0

Nope, sugar is definitely my weakness, but not the pastry and candy format...I love my tea and French vanilla's, and tend to go way over every day on sugar, just from those alone.0

This person stated cutting out sugar completely (not cutting back).

I have never heard of anyone completely cutting out sugar
Can it be done? Even for a day?
Tell me your experience going 100% without a drop of sugar for a day or longer.
Note: I am at around 50 grams of sugar a day
For one day I could no sugar or not eat anything at all but I don't plan to.
I think it is unnecessary to cut foods from my diet.

My sugar intake as a total for today is 44gm. I am happy with that as I try to stay low on added sugar. Huge trigger for me to end up with major cravings. But sugar in my veg and fruit is all good!!0

What am I? Mad at myself??0

Maybe it makes them feel bad? Maybe they like to experiment? Sugar is fun to eat, but no one will suffer ill health without it.0
