No Sugar Challenge

Well the no sugar challenge is over. Out of 6 people competing, only 2 made it all the way to 3 months. Sadly I was not one of those two! I made it 2 months total, had a really bad week, and gave in to the bliss of a sugary distraction with a friend. It was a pretty great 2 months though. I ate really well, but it was more expensive since I was also taking a metabolism booster and multivitamins since I have been going to the gym more often. Well you can't win them all!!! As a result, I get to go see a friend in Florida and another one in Seattle, so I guess it really isn't that bad that I lost.

Here are a few things I learned:
-Often times when a package says how many grams of sugar, make sure you check the ingredients to make sure it is natural sugar or you won't be eating anything!!
-There are some great healthy snacks out there! I loved eating dried apple slices, crackers and cheese, and nuts
-Don't trust your friends to keep you going strong...they all want you to fail so they don't feel so bad about their eating habits!
