    This is going to be the hardest thing for me to do, but I guess that is why it can be considered a challenge =) I am definitely in on this one. I have a true problem with my sugar intake and I believe that is a big factor that has kept me from losing all the weight I know I could have possibly lost. So, starting tomorrow, my "Let's go sugar-free!" goal will be to limit my sugar intake to 20 grams a day. That is my week 1 goal at least. Hopefully I will get so good that eventually I can go without, or I can just have one day of sugar!

    I'm a little embarrassed that I couldn't even get thru the first night of the challenge. :blushing: My "reward" for food shopping was to buy a toblerone bar. I think I ate half of it last night.:sad:
    So,
    Me: 0
    Sweets: 1 :mad:

    Thankfully, today is a new day and I am motivated to do better since the scale moved down today!! Must be the zumba classes. I am making it a priority to go to Zumba toning today!

    Good bye diet coke...hello water!:drinker:

    Excellent!

    You are right - this will be hard for all of us. If we were sugar-free by now, we wouldn't be here :tongue:.

    Lorna, loveme, well done, ladies!
    Zaza, see my response above to Kiana's remark :wink:. But I know you CAN do it! Go, Zumba! (will have to try this myself someday).

    I am happy to report that I only had 60 cals of my allowed 200 yesterday :wink:. So it's:

    I am the poster child for utter failure.

    I already know today will be another "sweets" day because I am going to a brunch. (At least I'm walking the quarter-mile to the woman's house.:laugh: )
    I'll just have to ease into this challenge I guess.

    I had a piece of cake early in the morning, so I guess that puts over my 200cal daily allowance (although I have some provision of calories from the first two days :wink:). To be fair to the others (who are doing so well!!), I'd say it's:

    Evenmore when it's the only sweetner to homemade desert :wink:. In case someone gets confused: my mum's jams have considerable less sugar (and she used raw sugar this time) than the commercial jams.

    This being said:
