It has been three weeks since I gave up sugar. Three weeks is my magic number, the point at which I usually stop craving the white (or brown) stuff.
I thought I would take some time to recollect, to ponder and consider.
Firstly I have stopped having the mid afternoon slump, that tiredness that is brought on by the post-lunch sugar crash.
Secondly my jeans kept falling down yesterday. I haven’t weighed myself as we don’t have (obvious) scales in the house because eldest can become a little obsessed. I had also been wearing the jeans for a couple of days and you know how cheap jeans are, getting all loose if you just look at them, so I’ve washed them today and they’re hanging up to dry.
Thirdly, while in tescito (little tesco) this morning (and I have only just realised this) I was in the chocolate aisle a few times and didn’t even look at the lindor shelf.
It’s been a successful three weeks and with just 9 days of November left, a decision to be made later on.

Awesomeness!!!
I also find it's the rule of three's for me too, the first three days are the hardest, and after the first three weeks it gets infinitely easier, whether starting something or giving it up, after three months you are good, in my opinion.
