    This is the easiest challenge ever! Today is 02 June 2014 and for the month thus far, the only sugar I've consumed is what was in the orange I ate this morning. And, given that I doubt we're counting naturally-occurring sugars in foods (as opposed to "added sweeteners"), I'm clean so far.

    I drink unsweetened tea and avoid soda like it's laced with anthrax.



    I would not survive a no-carb challenge.

    I wish I would've seen this a couple days ago, I wouldve joined before I bought those 2 boxes of pocky o.o At least I've managed to cut soda completely out of my diet; I've been soda-free for over a year now. But I love sweet things, especially chocolate, so this would be a very hard challenge to do >.>

    After the first week no carb isn't very hard. But that first week? My god it makes you wish you were dead.

    Its actually easy if you survive those first several days. The whole having no sugar cravings after a few weeks? You hit that for all carbs within the first week.

    That is... a relief to know.

    One of my employees is doing a no-carb diet (though she is kosher on artificial sweeteners if they are low/no-carb) and without any crazy business - just a vitamin supplement to fill the gaps and some suuuuper relaxed workout that is probably less strenuous than what I do every day at work - she's lost a bunch of weight every time she's stuck with it simply because her body converts the fat to energy instead of the carbs it would get otherwise.

    I'm not "fat" by any stretch of the imagination, but it couldn't hurt to tone. I JUST LOVE GRAINS SO MUCH AND THIS STOMACH AGREES

    Let's do sugar this month and carbs next month!

    Carbs are going to destroy me. I can go without sugar and it will be a test, but carbs will be so hard ;-;

    Well, next month is my sister's birthday and there will be SO MUCH ALCOHOL but as long as I steer clear of grain alcohol, I should be good. Fortunately I don't care for too many of the sweeter shots anyway.

    I've mostly been doing it for months, but I don't know that I've done it for a month solid. Count me in. Sometimes I still crave ice cream.
