Holidays and Sugar

I've decided to get a start on my New Year Resolution before the holidays. I've gained some weight and am unmotivated, so I really want to lose 20 pounds by Thanksgiving. This year I'm giving up sugar to help me lose weight before the holidays. I keep seeing on here how evil it is and how it makes us fat. From now on when I cook I will substitute sugar with high fructose corn syrup.

Anyone want to join me?

    I'm so fat from all that Halloween candy. It should be illegal to sell, it is poison for our bodies. I am tired of being so fat, count me in for the challenge!

    Although, if it's okay with you..I'm going to make my goal 30lbs. I have so much to loose!

    I wasn't being rude. I was being honest. I don't want to starve and I do want my ice cream and pizza. Thank you very much.

    Groundbreaking idea. Refined sugars are poison. Corn syrup comes from corn. It's a vegetable, so it has to be better. Right?!

    IN!

    You aren't being supportive. You're bragging about eating junk in a thread about eliminating it. That's a bit rude don't you think?

    You might want to incorporate a cleanse to help you get that extra 10lbs. Check out Dr. Oz. He's got great stuff. :flowerforyou:

    No, not at all. I put it within my calories daily and work it off. I'm not going to ever completely give up sugar. It is simply who I am. Has absolutely nothing with being rude.
