Have a great week and keep smiling

    When you say no sugar, what do you mean? No processed sugars?

    Edit: I enjoy eating a lot of fruit, and I tend not to worry about sugar really.

    No Sugar would mean added sugar or sweets as in pop or candy etc.

    Ok, week 1 is in the bag. Posting the whole week worked great. I was able to switch a couple days around to work into my schedule better. Thank you so much for doing this, greatly appreciated. Looking forward to a lazy tomorrow!
