It was the single greatest thing I have ever done for myself. I got my life back because of it. I am no longer sick, I eat less, I am less tired, as a side effect - I lost weight and have kept it off. <br /><br />A few decades from now when the debate is done and the research complete and understood by all, we will look back and wonder "what were we thinking?" about loading our food with sugar. <br /><br />It is going to happen. But you and your loved ones can get a headstart on the rest now! Some things are too important to be sitting around and wondering.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6510773540672751770.post-67698740484966694452011-08-18T03:46:36.199+10:002011-08-18T03:46:36.199+10:00Good Luck !

I haven't read the Gillespie book but I have read about it. I cannot tell you how amazing I feel. I do not do diets or weird eating things so this was an experiment. And I don't eat lots of processed food anyway but I do love lots of fruit, juice, chocolate and yes the odd muffin and biscuit. It is really not hard to do once you make up your own cereal and buy some nuts etc. GO for it you will not regret it. xoxo PS You DON"T Have to give up wine or beer - not the same kind of sugar as the fructose Gillespie is on about.Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02475155333546477042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6510773540672751770.post-68845639235140111352011-08-16T23:40:51.115+10:002011-08-16T23:40:51.115+10:00I used to take sugar in tea but when I was in Egyp...I used to take sugar in tea but when I was in Egypt for a year at university, there was some problem getting hold of sugar so I was obliged to have my tea without. <br /><br />In the end I got used to it and never went back. Forced deprivation is a great way, but a bit drastic.<br /><br />Good luck with reaching your target!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13195684182481935384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6510773540672751770.post-45189475751636880182011-08-16T22:05:18.549+10:002011-08-16T22:05:18.549+10:00Good luck with it.

I'm OK without sugar in coffee. I just can't give up the wine though !! Let us know how you get on.....I know you will do well.....after all, you went 100 days without buying anything so going without sugar should be a breeze !!!! haha.

I've reduced my sugar intake though - I used to have 3 sugars in tea and coffee (oh the shame!) but I've cut it down to just over half. Pretty chuffed with myself just quietly. Hope it goes well sweet...wanna do it for me too?
