Bust Out of That Sugar Addiction – A Free Challenge!

I posted this week about my 3 Day Refresh results.

I have don’t this a few times, and it always blows me away at how much cutting out sugar and Diet Cokes make me crazy!

But I know it.  My body proves it to me every single time.  I started this journey to lose weight, but I gained so much clarity about what I need to do to treat my body right! I didn’t know that cutting out the junk and just eating CLEAN food would change my life so much.

Sure, I wanted to lose weight and that happened naturally. But I had struggled for so long with PMDD – Pre-Menstrual Dysphoric Disorder.  And it messed with my life and the most important relationships in my life BIG time!

I was cranky, depressed, angry, emotional – for a good two weeks out of each month. And the ONLY way to deal with it was for me to take birth control.  Yaz, specifically.  And I HATED the way that made me feel.  Birth control kind of muted my personality and it definitely dampened my desire for my husband.

I had read many times that one of the natural ways to deal with PMDD was to eat clean.  Well, before I started the 21 Day Fix, I had NO idea how to start eating clean.  But that helped so much!  So a couple months into my 21 Day Fix journey, I decided to stop taking my birth control and use more natural methods.

And I was SO scared! Scared that I would turn into a mommy-monster again.  Turn into that cutting and hateful wife that barked at her husband all the time!  (I swear, it was this bad….just ask Matt)

But my first period came and went, and it was all good!  And then I waited for the next month, anxious that maybe it would take some time for the BC to wear off. Nothing!  And my period was still very light!

I waited month after month, continued eating clean, working out and drinking my Shakeology.  And each month came and went, and the symptoms were still GONE!  Sure, I deal with some cramping, a tiny bit of irritability, but GUYS!!! IT was nothing like before!!!

And I became a believer!!! How do I know it was a combo of cutting the sugar and aspartame?  Because when I get off my 80/20 plan of eating clean 80% of the time and cheating 20% of the time, I see a huge difference.

The past couple of weeks were like that.  I slipped in sugar and Diet Cokes a little more each day. I wasn’t really gaining weight, but that’s not the real issue here.

And by this past weekend, the weekend before my period started, I was DEPRESSED!  Things irritated me more.  I was full of self-doubt and uncertainty.  Life was just kind of blurred and not bright!

And I am truly convinced that this is NOT how God meant this lift to be lived!

But each time that happens, I can directly relate it back to my eating.

So, I am a believer! So much so that I want to help other people discover this reality too!

For that reason, I am hosting a FREE 7 Day Sugar Busters Challenge.

Here’s how it will work:

1. Commit to 7 days of NO sugar or sodas – regular or diet.
2. I’ll provide a free 7 Day Meal Plan and Grocery List.
3. You have to SHOW up!!! No slacking. I know we’re not perfect, but to do this right, you have to commit to it.
4. Check into the group everyday.
5. You have the option to incorporate Shakeology as a meal replacement everyday. This is not required, but I will say that Shakeology helps with my hormones tremendously as well!
6. We will have some fun prizes!!!

So, who’s in?? Do you have a serious addiction to sugar or sodas?? Or even sweet tea!  That has to go too!
