    Would love to see this thread continue! :smiley:

    @Spears1354 @ChaleGirl <3 YaY!! You guys made it!! Congrats :smiley:

    I've been cheering you both from the sidelines. :p You've been so motivating, I remember how fabulous my body and mind feel when I eat less processed food. The cravings lessen for me on about the 2-3 days so I'm going to jump in the challenge.

    Be great if anyone wants to continue or join us so we can keep each other motivated!

    @Spears1354 I'm GMT time zone, London, so it's Monday 31st now! It's 5:44am and I'm in the gym, yay lol! So yeah this is our final day :smile:

    @Hearts_2015 I am definitely up for continuing. I am going to at least try something sugary this week but then continue and only have added sugar on birthdays/special occasions. I have some luxury fudge that I ordered just before he challenge. I put it in the freezer but would like to try some lol. We will see! I completely agree re feeling good when you give up sugar, I have felt really well and much more energetic!! I think our bodies tell us what works for us and what doesn't, we just have to listen!

    Thank you. I am definitely going to keep trying to live this lifestyle. Like ChaleGirl I do want to splurge to celebrate tomorrow... Part of my motivation was knowing I could have something sweet on the day this was over hoping to teach myself control. After tomorrow my plan is to refrain from added sugar on normal days but have the occasional treat but no more than once per week. If there are more than one special occasions in a week then I will have to choose... Also with the holidays coming up I will choose which family holiday I want to eat the sweet at since I might be 3 different places in 3 days... Ect... I am so thankful ChaleGirl started this Challenge... I have learned a lot about myself! I would be happy to continue posting on this page as we all need a little accountability.

    Oh brilliant, well done! I've still not had sugar either and don't even want it. Went to a work event yesterday and there was so much wine but I felt like having sparkling water with a slice of lime. I think I feel too good to let the sugar back in haha!!
    Have you been having any cravings @Hearts_2015

    The scale wasn't moving for me so I gave up on weighing. I definitely look smaller and my stomach looks smaller, plus I feel a zillion times better which is enough to keep me going. I had date night last night and still skipped the wine and dessert and just had a hearty meal. The more you just say the easier it gets. Well done @Hearts_2015 for getting to day 5!!!

    i messed up on my goal to stay away from sugar but once per week and then had a terrible week of wanting to eat everything so this week the only sugar i will have is two drops of honey ( and I do mean drops) in my coffee just to make it taste a tad smoother. Im a slow loser but while i was on the sugar fast i had some major inches lost. I truly believe thats why I'm in my skinnier jeans right now and I definitely felt better. Im planning to do this till Thanksgiving and then try my best to pick one desert only. Being on sugar really does make my appetite increase. I know i can do this... I just have too!

    How's everyone doing?! I'm still sugar free. Decided that after my 10k run on 20th Nov I'm going to try sugar on just one day and then get back to it. Loving the feeling of doing this!!
