Are we talking artificial and natural or just artificial?

Β 

I haven't personally but I know someone who is currently doing 5 grams or less 100 day challenge.

I have not but I have a coworker who is doing this Whole 30 [day] challenge which cuts out allllll sugar with the exception of fruit. She isn't even chewing sugarless gum anymore right now because there is still a little bit of real sugar in sugarless gum.

Meanwhile, I'm eating the doughnuts that the doctors bring us haha

I would just reduce it slowly rather than cold turkey, because you'll end up binging. Or just reduce it to like, a small portion per week. I don't believe in cutting anything out 100%.

It's really hard to cut sugar so best of luck! I never cut out all sugar but drop items that are super super sugary (sodas, candies, donuts, etc).Β 

Even just going cold turkey on sodas can be incredibly hard. I still drink them, just not very often.Β It's been a while and now that my body has readjusted to less sugar, sodas are actully sort of gross beause they're too sugary and make me feel sick.Β

get topo chico, or carbonated water. it gives you the feeling of drinking a soda (if that is your jam) without actually drinking one :)

I cut soda/coffee cold turkey when pregnant and would have maybe 1 soda a month (can 12oz)Β 

Im a cold turkey kinda person and just barrel through the bleh bits

Cut that teaspoon in half so it equals out to just 1 teaspoon total. Might help πŸ™‚

I have not, but I’ve heard that the 21 Day Sugar Detox has a lot of resources for it, so I would probably start there if it were me!

^ I think Tana is wise in her advice. Everything in moderation.
