Back to (almost) no sugar diet!

Martin and I just decided we were feeling so much better off sugar than now that we are back and slipping back into old habits. So we decided to adjust the rules slightly, so we wouldn't feel as restrained especially in our normal social activities. 


Ruled out: Chocolate, sweets, ice cream, pastries, crackers and cookies, desserts, pies, squash (as in mix juice/concentrate crap), flour: meaning white bread, rice, pasta, syrup, all kind of marmalades and jellies, food with refined sugars, sweetened soy milk, sport drinks, sweetened coffee.

Still in: Fruit, fresh juice (make sure no added sugar!), raisins, nuts. Obviously all kind of veggies, cereals, whole wheat bread, rice and pasta, lactose such as milk and unsweetened yoghurt, eggs, coffee, tea, mate and honey, but only for cooking. Alcohol is ok too


Allowed in small amounts: Pastries such as desserts or fika is allowed once a week, pizza but only as a treat and so is white flour. Meaning, if someone invites you it's allright, but not ok to buy it yourself! Martin is allowed marmelade once a week too.

So, this starts on monday. We are to do a 3 month "challenge" with a monthly update session (every 21th). Seems like we are sort of organised this time, like we know what we are getting into and the aim is not to push ourselves as hard as possible but to create a sustainable relation to food. Yay for us and for treating your body the way it deserves!
