The countdown begins. Today is Saturday and Monday begins the juice fast/feast (depending on how you look at it).
All those little bouts of purging sugar from my kitchen ended badly. I kept caving. How is it possible to go almost 3 years without sugar and then have this much trouble quitting again?
My hope is that with 2 months of juicing I will know better than to dabble with sugar. If I play with sugar, it wins. If I abstain from sugar, I win.
Quitting sugar changed my life once. I know quitting again will have the same profound affects. It's what motivates me this time around. Valuable lesson learned? I really can't balance moderation with sugar, I wish I could. It's easier to just go without it 100%.

I was sugar-free for two years, about 3 years ago I got off track and have struggled since then - I have followed your blog for quite a while and just wanted you to know that you are not alone, it's a daily struggle. But I remember how amazing I felt when I was off sugar, and I keep going back to that.
Keep working toward the goal, you have done it once and I KNOW you can do it again - I know the same goes for me. (although it is much easier for me to be encouraging for you than to try to do it on my own again, haha) You were always an encouragement to me when I was looking for support, so please know that what you have done has affected someone else.
Oh, and people who say sugar isn't addicting are CRAZY!
Sounds just like giving up alcohol or cigarettes, you are a great inspiration to me :)
Hi there,

I am so glad to have found this blog. I am searching the internet about what I think my problem could be. I am very overweight and constantly craving food. I think its the sugar! This evening after work I am going to really get down to looking through this blog. I can use all the help I can get. I tried to email you (top of the blog) but I am unable to:/ I truly think this is my problem. I feel as if I start off the day doing well (oatmeal/toast,etc) but I am ravenously all day. I am thankful to have found this blog.
