How I did it: replace refined sugar with unrefined sugar- either honey (preferably raw), maple syrup, molasses (which is bittersweet, so use in small amounts), or straight unrefined sugar (such as Rapadura). fruit juice is better too, but still taxing on your body to deal with. make healthy versions of your favorite desserts using the unrefined sugars listed above. my personal favorite is to mix together yogurt, maple syrup, and almond butter, to use a… Read how I did it…

It made me 
How I did it: I love anything sugary and sweet, but since I've been trying to become healthier I try to eat less of it. I don't drink soda or sugary drinks, pretty much cut out the donuts and sweets. When I'm really craving something sweet, I have a bit of dark chocolate. Read how I did it…

feel better
How I did it: For me it was all about replacing dessert with more food during dinner. I was not overweight to start with, but I felt cravings for sweets after dinner. I realised that if I am very full after dinner, I don't feel like dessert. So now I eat more during dinner, and don't eat sweets for dessert. I have some fruit instead. I also have a little bit of 70% Cocoa dark chocolate after lunch sometimes, as lunch portions are hard to control at work. Read how I did it…

Sugar LESS plan
1 month ago
Controlling sugar intake is worse than quitting smoking for me, so I will determine where I fail and address potential fixes.
Breakfast (1/4 to 1/2 tsp of sugar on cereal):
Replace with sprinkle of cinnamon on “cheerios.”
Tasty.
Easy.
Lunch (something sweet to complement lunch):
Fruit juice.
Afternoon (stinging craving, worse if in a bad mood):
Small serving of yogurt or cobbler, something with fruit
since I don’t enjoy fruit alone.
Evening (sweet tooth sometimes a couple hrs after dinner):
Spoonful of healthier peanut butter might do the trick and fortify against late hunger.
Baking (Temptation abounds!):
Only bake for company or to give away. Don’t keep cookies around!
Set aside a few for me and immediately package.
Avoid grazing.
Ice cream, candy, desserts:
Eat sparingly, but do allow.
Share.
Set aside portion and put away the rest!
Avoid fake sugars.

rules are made to be broken.

so i want to cut down on my daily sugar. i’ve become far too lazy and instead of bring an apple to school, i go to 7eleven and buy some unhealthy and sugarish stuff. i want to break that kind of habits that i have, so here’s some goals i want to achieve:
- not eat sweets or drink soda on weekdays.
- eat healthy breakfast e.g. müsli and swedish crispbread.
- at pauses in school eat fruit, not a candybar.
- find good recipes that are healthy.
yeah, quite simple and straightforwad. so i’ve followed these “rules” about a week and thought if i can follow them two more then i can check off this goal.
well it sounds good, now i just have to do it!

I’m addicted to sugar, but lately candy has been making me feel sick. I already cut out soda, so I guess I already made some progress. Although I think Stevia extract makes wonderful lemonade, I think it will take some time to get past cookies, ice cream and pastries! :-)
