No sugar

I haven't drank any sugary drinks in almost 2 weeks. I use to always either drink kool-aid or soda. I would even load up my morning coffee with at least 4 spoon fulls of sugar. Now I haven't had any. Over the weekend for labor day I was at a dinner with my friends family and I drank some orangeade and it felt like I could feel the sugar sliding down my throat and it was just disgusting!

    Awesome! Its so weird that once I used to crave that stuff, now I can't stand it since I gave up sugar.
  • I will never totally give up sugar, but giving up sugary beverages, for me, is an easy way to reduce calories. Good job!

    I had SunnyD over the weekend, just a small glass to take my vitamins with breakfast. First drink "Oh this tastes really good!" Second drink (and last drink) "Wow thats a lot of sugar." Dumped the rest out.

    I've always been like that... I have to drink water with my sugary beverages. =)

    Yeah, the "full fat" (as I call them) sodas make my mouth really funny now - like I can feel the sugar eating my teeth

    I thought I was the only one who felt that way. HATE the feel - I swear I can feel the little sugar crystals hitting my teeth and it's GROSS!

    Pepsi and Coke have always done this to me. I haven't drank any soda though so maybe other types will make my teeth feel gross now.
