Well almost…..
I’ve still got to get through another meal filled with my most hated vegetable….vegetable pizza on a cauliflour pizza base!
I may be jumping the gun in declaring that we have made it through week two of the 8WP but I reckon it’s safe to say that we made it through a highly stressful week so we get through a lazy weekend!
It took three days to get through the post clean up of the Sunday cook up. I was not a happy wife and therefore this did not make for a happy life! Why on earth would you spend an hour cooking your own chickpeas when you can simply open a tin and wash them? I’ll tell you why ” I am completley and untterly devoted to everything that (bloody) Sarah Wilson says – a former magazine editor with no formal qualifications in science or nutrition. This is what everyone keeps telling me who is part of the anti the quit sugar movement keeps telling me!
My advice to anyone thinking about quitting sugar is not to embark on this self emposed experiment when facing times of stress – it just makes life feel a whole ;lot harder then it should! Medical issues, job security and large scale event planning during peak period at work do not go mix well when detoxing from sugar. Although a silver lining is ( I use that saying a whole lot more since watching that movie) – you don’t really have time to think about how hungry you might possibly be feeling! Perhaps another silver lining of this whole quitting sugar thing is, that perhaps I am turning into one of those people who don’t turn to high fat, high sugar, fast food when getting through tough times! – I’ve always envied those people and looked at them in amazement! I am secretly doing a jig at the thought of becoming one of those people that I look at with such admiration.
For those of you wondering why on earth I am still committed to quitting sugar I want you to do youself a favour and read the very old (1972) but newly re- released “Pure, White and Deadly” by John Yudkin. If only we had of listed to his findings when he first released them!
Oh and one final thing before I say goodbye!
I have a twitter account. Sarah Wilson…THE SARAH WILSON from IQS retweeted one of my tweets AND one of the original Quit Sugar campaigners started following ME…David Gillespie! I must be a person to watch. I must be about to go VIRAL on the wide world web! Who knows this might be the start of my career! hehe : )
