Sugar-Free week challenge

Dear Aunty Nurse Readers,
How have you been? I bet some of you already know what this post is about. I am going on a week long sugar fast effective-tomorrow 18th September 2013 The fast would last till Wednesday next week and I've asked a couple of people to join me. So far, I've had a had about 5 recruits and I hope to get more as the week goes by.

I went shopping online in Nigeria and I found this dress I love but it was just a size too small. That sort of stirred me to consider the sugar-free challenge.

To the smart asses, I didn't say I'm doing a Carbohydrate-fast. Its a sucrose fast. Which means I can't have Saint Louis or any other brand of sugar in my tea, no soft drinks, sugar,cake,Milo, pack fruit juices(containing sucrose).


Here are the details as spelt out in the broadcast I sent over BBM
1. Each participant is to get on a scale today at least 2hrs after a meal and record their starting weight.
2.If available, get a tape and measure your waist circumference

Keep the above records for future reference
Foods to avoid: All foods containing artificially added sucrose e.g. Biscuits, Chocolates,Beverages(Milo),Pastries, Ice cream,Soft drinks/Sodas, Juices(Five Alive)

Sugar substituting with sweeteners or honey is not permitted.
On Thursday 26th September please post your feedback as a comment, as an email or as a message on bbm.

My hope is that by the end of this week, our tongues would be recalibrated and we'd grow a greater distaste for sugar.

At the end of this exercise, I would greatly appreciate some feedback in form of comments letting me know if there were any changes in  weight or weight circumference or your general state of well-being. I am already motivated. Are you? It begins tomorrow and my current recruits have motivated me significantly.

My starting weight is 67 kg and weight circumference is 28.5 inches.
All the best people!!!! Have a Sweet sugar-free week.



Love,
Aunty Nurse
