Okay, so I haven't even had dinner yet, but somehow I'm
already at 22 grams of sugar! This
is harder than I'd imagine, but if I hadn't blown 7.8 grams of sugar on dried
cranberries in my lunch salad I'd be in a better place. If you look on the craisins ingredient
list, sugar is the second ingredient behind the actual cranberries. Crazy! I also admit to a half square of a Giradelli dark chocolate - I was jonesing. Though, that only accounted for 3.5g. That was way more worth it verses those darn cranberries.
Also note that this challenge is for counting refined
sugar. The 6.4 grams I consumed
with my breakfast toast (according to my app) provides some leeway. Since the
American diet is way to heavy on the flour aspect I decided to leave it in my
daily count though.
Already, since skipping dessert last night I noticed that I
woke up this morning feeling much more refreshed. I literally felt lighter. This is a pattern I've noticed when I skip the nightly
dessert. So dessert should really be
an exception, not the rule :)
For those of you doing this with me - GREAT JOB!!!
Keep up the good work, I'm excited for what tomorrow will
bring.
