[@lilishisa6687]

I love how honest you are about the snacks slip-ups. And I agree with you that cutting sugar out completely will lead us to having really bad craving and a higher chance to Bing later .

[@somethingrandom9887]

can't speak for anyone else but when I don't eat sugar (I regularly cut out all refined sugar for about a month at a time) I find that I stop craving sugar after a few days and start craving fruit or other natural sugars instead. It's only when I start eating sugar again that I start craving it

[@asmasalah993]

"I looked like I'm giving birth to the camera" 😂

[@sarahmockingbird6433]

Your dad has some mad skills! I avoided sugar for years. My tastebuds really did change to the point where things such as grapefruit taste overly sweet. It isn't difficult in terms of being tempting but the problem is it really limits life. Because sugar happens and life is more fun when you can participate. No sugar really does make for a dull gal. Also, I experience a lot of bloating so sugar has nothing to do with it. I think there is too much concern about food. Far healthier to have a relaxed attitude about food. You seem to have a healthy approach to food. Keep eating sugar because you are fine as you are. Actually, you help me have a better relationship with food.

[@Grackle]

After this week I totally realised life is TOOOOO short, you only get one life to live so why worry about what you are eating, YOLOOOO and all that (but also eat your fruits and veggies kids, and drink water)

[@sarahmockingbird6433]

I think you mean hot water.

[@Grackle]

Sarah Mockingbird you KNOWWW IT (although kids may not be able to drink it, don’t want them to burn their little mouths off)

[@tuvawennerfors9667]

I totally agree with you! I was very restrictive with food for awhile, trying so hard to avoid things "unhealthy", and especially sugar. That lead to me having to spend sooo much time thinking about it, always bringing a snack of my own in my bag, and being the one eating a banana, or a raw bar when my friends ate ice creams. Now, I'm trying to eat what I feel like, and I've com to remember how much I love food?! Like it's so much more tastier? So really, I think having a healthy relationship with food really isn't about cutting out sugar, but just about eating and enjoying it :)

[@ryuwiki4679]

True, true. being healthy does not mean `Dont eat sugar at all` You can have it once in a while, not every day, but you can have days where you need to enjoy life and eat a little sugar or your fave foods, junk food once in a while is also ok, dont be to restrictive:)!

[@marycaroline9808]

excuse me but you've got such a beautiful skin! 😍

[@esyt95]

seriously... I cut down on sugar and after a week I actually cut it out of all my drinks and minimized my sugary treats to at least 70% less than before and I honestly haven't seen a bigger change on my body than with cutting out sugar. my body and my face and every part of my body has de-bloated so so much. I haven't lost weight, but I seem like I have lost about 10kg. and that's just from cutting down on sugar and having a quite healthy diet. I haven't stopped eating junk, just minimized the amount. I haven't stopped eating desserts, just minimized it. I tried to get used to putting no kind of sweetener in my drinks for almost a month so that my body can get used to the taste. it was kinda hard but not really. after that month I started using stevia or honey and some drinks I keep drinking them black. it's not THAT difficult to cut it out of your diet. and take that from a person who used to put 4-5 tablespoons of sugar in their hot CHOCOLATE (not cocoa. CHOCOLATE!).

Getting your fats from quality sources such as nuts, seeds, avocado etc is much healthier than opting for packets of crisps that are high in saturated fats.

Alright, for everyone in the comments saying fruit is high in sugar so it's bad for you: listen up. Fruit is a complex carb. The sugar is naturally occurring, not added, and is paired with fiber which helps take the sugar through your system. Fruit is also high in vitamins and antioxidants, which are both obviously good for you. It is also a great way to cut processed sugar and still satisfy your sweet tooth cravings! I cut all processed sugar and sugar substitutes for two months and ate fruit and veggies instead and *lost weight* and had higher energy. Felt great. EVERYTHING IN MODERATION EVERYONE! Cutting out an entire food group isnt healthy despite the fad diet's claims.

This is so funny because i've been sugar-free since i was born thanks to my parents, i tried different bars with sugars and still eat sugar when i go out, but in my every-day life i'm vegan and sugar-free! And it's funny because it takes no effort to me: like for breakfast i can have vegan yogurt (there are plenty of them without sugar) with fruits and cinnamon, or make oatmeal with oats, plantbased milk (plenty without sugar too), fruits, raisins, dates, nuts, peanutbutter, jelly (a lot of them are sugar free actually!), or even bread with jam. For lunch i just make big salads (lot of different vegetables) with rice-cakes/bread/quinoa/potatoes and for dinner legumes, a type of complex carb and cooked vegetables. As for snacks i go for fruits, homemade cakes or biscuits but at the supermarket and at the organic shop there are plenty of sugar-free bars, sugar-free cookies, sugar-free cereals even if you can make your own ones which is much cheaper and store them for the entire week! Then i also think that to see the positive effect you should go longer without sugar: body and mind take longer to detoxify from loads of bad food! If you eat tons of crisps it won't work that much for sure!

I’m currently on a no sugar no flour diet. Which is really difficult. I find sugar is one of the hardest things to cut out of your diet. Mainly due to the addition of it. 1 year ago I went on a completely raw food diet without any processed sugar, just natural sugars from fruit and I did include dates and honey which is better for the body and helped put my sugar cravings at bay. The first 2 weeks of giving up sugar though, I went through a detox and had what you are describing, lots of uncomfortable symptoms and lack of sleep etc. Once that passed I felt amazing and had much better skin and energy. It’s just getting through those initial weeks. Great video and good on you for trying 💖
