Going low/no carb

So a friend of mine was is 1 year post op was told she is still addicted to sugar and that she needs to go carb free for two weeks in order to clear the sugar/carbs from her body.  I told her that I would do it with her.  So starting tomorrow, its no carbs for me. 

I went grocery shopping yesterday and picked up al the meat and veggies I need to the week.  Today is prep day.  I am going to cook up some of the meat and put it in bags of 4 oz.  I'll cut up the brocolli and cauliflower I bought.  Hopefully by preparing ahead it will make this all easier.

We have also committed to tracking everything we eat so I am also going to put all the information in the health tracker and utilize that tool. 

I am also blogging every day so I can keep a check on my emotions, thoughts, etc.

Wish me luck and if you want - check out my blog

Good Luck!  I have thought about doing the same myself, not because of sugar, but because of carbs.  I am more than a year and a half out.  Back in May I started on this pretzel kick and I swear, I can't make it through the day without eating them.  I think that has lead to a carb addiction because I am eating too many pretzels, crackers, chips, etc.......Good luck to you - let us know who it goes!Nan

Pretzels are evil....they opened the door for me to other carbs too.  I no longer allow them in the house, they are my crack!

Good for you!  Let me know if it helps you with your carb cravings.

Good Luck . . I went off all flour and sugar in June and I feel great . . I started with pretzels and like Edie they are my drug of choice . . they are truly evil . . but I still dream of them . .lol

My intense craving began with protein bars.....they were my "gateway" drug to other unhealthy things....I'm still working on getting back on track. 
Best of luck with going sugar free!
