Day 1 of 30, and what a shitty day to start. The end of the summer holidays, which means no more week nights with Gaz; the return to the monotony of the nursery run routine (although with the unhelpful addition of a school run from Wednesday — can’t believe Isabel starts school this week!); and, of course, the PMS Monster is making its presence felt today too.
However, I can’t be too grumpy, as I have managed to rope some volunteers into attempting Sugar Free September with me. Aisling and Other Katy are going sugar-free and navigating the complex world of gluten-free at the same time and Ang is going sugar-free and grain-free after previously doing so and losing a shitload of weight.
Maybe, just maybe, some sugar-free friends to help keep me accountable will see me actually succeed this time…

Colleague looked at me in horror today and said “you already can’t eat so much and now you’re doing this? Isn’t it enough that you can’t eat bread?”
I suppose. But I guess that’s why it’s challenging, right? :P

Yup my colleagues were all “shock horror” too. I think they think I’m going to die if I can’t eat wheat, dairy (well, excepting mature cheese :D) OR sugar.

I’m doing Sugar-free September as well to detox and get rid of all the sweet poison I’ve ingested this past August. Good luck to you, Jem!

Good luck!
