Days Two and Three

I have lost 4 lbs in two days.

I want to specify that when I say "no sugar" that means no fruit or carbs for these 60 days. I know that they are technically "good carbs", but they trigger sugar cravings. I do use artificial sweetners--mostly Splenda. After being away from most carbs (carb count is probably below 20 grams a day, but I'm not counting), my cravings disappear. I LOVE that feeling of not being driven by sugar. Sometimes it literally DRIVES ME to the store for a pack of cookies or cakes! As long as I can get to a store, it doesn't matter that I have no sugar in the house. If it's attainable, I will get it. Therefore, my house is not sugar free. I have quite a bit of junk for my husband and kids. Saying no to it personally makes me stronger!!
