Slowly getting away from sugar

So, the more I read about sugar (whether it be high-fructose corn syrup or sucrose in the form of  table sugar or honey), the more I’m feeling like I really shouldn’t be eating it anymore! According to recent research, sugar causes inflammation and impairs healing in the skin and body, it weakens your immune systme, and it’s harmful to our teeth!

For some reason, it’s lately been much easier for me not to consume large amounts of sugar! I don’t know why, but I just haven’t been craving it as much as I used to….And it’s such a relief! I’ll keep you posted on whether this lasts (and if so, what seems to be making it work). And if it lasts, the best part will be reporting on changes in how I look and how I feel! (To clarify, I won’t be cutting out fruit, just processed sugars like muffins, whipped cream, cake, chocolate, etc.)

Also, if you have stories of kicking sugar, please share with us what worked (or didn’t work) for you, as well as any changes you noticed once you stopped eating it!
