Sugar-Free Lent: Day Twenty-Nine

Sugar-Free Lent: Day Twenty-Nine!

So today I haven't had any added sugar for 3 weeks. I think it is time to look back at my sugar-free weeks.

How do I feel? What has changed? What is still the same?

I still not have an afternoon nap and therefore I have been able to do a lot more stuff. That doesn't mean that I sleep any better at night and when I wake up in the morning I wish I could stay in bed. So do I really have more energy? 

I'm not quite sure about that.

I still have cravings for sweet stuff particularly in the afternoon when I used to have my nap. Oh, and after supper I still miss my pudding. I'm still constantly thirsty even though I eat less cheese. I've just got bored with cheese, thankfully I found nice Parma ham without sugar and nothing else than just pig and salt.

Sometimes I feel a bit clearer in my head but I still get headaches particularly when I don't eat.

My liver stopped hurting which is good and my muscles didn't ache anymore even though I was doing gardening at the weekend. 

I don't think that I'm already there even though it feels a lot longer than just the 3 weeks that I'm off sugar.

And I lost another kilo. I'm still expecting that bliss and I don't really know what else.

Maybe that my life will change with a bang once I overcome my craving for sugar????

Well, at least I'm feeling not as bad as I felt before and occasionally I can think about something else than just sugar.
