Limiting Additional Sugar Challenge

SUGAR CHALLENGE⠀

I know you… and you’re already sweet enough. Adding extra sugar to your daily diet is unnecessary and definitely not good for you!⠀
⠀
This week we’re going to be getting rid of ADDED SUGARS in our diets!⠀
⠀
There’s a HUGE difference between the natural sugars found in foods, and the added sugars that we put in our drinks and foods.⠀
⠀
The scary thing is, these days sugar can sneak up on you with at least 60 different names, making them difficult to spot when scanning your labels.⠀
⠀
In fact, here’s a great list with about 56 of them for you: http://www.healthline.com/nutrition/56-different-names-for-sugar⠀
⠀
It’s recommended that we (as adults) limit our daily-added sugar intake to around 25grams, or 6 teaspoons a day.⠀
⠀
Your challenge this week is to avoid added sugars to your diet! (this includes food AND drinks).⠀
⠀
Fruit? It’s absolutely fine…it brings in a wide-variety of vitamins, minerals, and other micronutrients along with fiber. But coffee or tea with sugar? SORRY!!!⠀
⠀
If you absolutely, positively MUST add a little sweetness, I’d rather you go with these than sugar: ⠀
Raw Honey (go easy on this if you’re watching your weight because the calories add up fast)⠀
Stevia⠀
Coconut Sugar⠀
⠀
Be sure this week to check all of your nutrition labels….even on items you’d never imagine (like bread, crackers and other processed foods) because sugar is added to pretty much everything.⠀
⠀
After only one week without added sugar, your body and brain will be thanking you!⠀
⠀
Are you and your sweet tooth up for the challenge?! Let me know in a comment below!⠀
⠀
And keep us posted with how you’re doing and any successes or struggles.⠀

 And, just so you know, I’m putting together a brand-new program starting March 16th. This is specifically for busy women of all types who want to lose 5-10lbs and gain energy back in 60 days. It’s a remote program, so you can join from anywhere in the world.⠀
⠀
I’m looking for 6 to test it out at a HUGE DISCOUNT, help me work out the kinks, and get amazing results that I can use as a case study. If that’s you, message me with ‘tell me more’ and I’ll share details about this exciting program.
