    I've actually done the 21 day no junk food challenge before, successfully too :). I'm game to try it again.

    However, I'll start April 8, since I'm on spring break from work the first week in April.

    I love this idea. Junk food is my downfall! I usually eat a healthy breakfast, lunch, and dinner but sometimes I'll ruin my day by eating tons of cookies or a huge bag of chips/popcorn. I plan to let myself have peanut butter and the occasional alcoholic drink on the weekends though.

    I have never done this kind of challenge before, but I know I need to. I'm not too big on sweets, but I am a big snack food eater: cheezits, kettle corn, rice cakes, peanut butter on my saltine crackers, etc..

    I love this plan. However, my birthday is April 4 and my hubby is April 20. I'm not sure how to do that. It'd be so close to impossible not to have a little cake. Or maybe not.

    I'll be honest the hardest part for me was the white bread. I do have a serious sweet tooth but I was able to get past that. The fast food part I just made sure I packed my lunch, and had back up lunches here at work. Made sure I had healthy snacks available. It wasn't EASY by any means but I did it.

    Hi Everyone, I am so sorry that I am late to the party, but hopefully I can use this as a stepping stone to becoming junk-free. I just decided today that I really need to eliminate the junky snacks and replace them with healthy snacks. I will start my junk-free diet tomorrow, and plan to complete the full 21 days.
