Day 11- building up from baby steps

F (29). I’ve tried quitting sugar cold turkey in the past but I always ended up falling back into serious binging habits. 11 days ago (after being a long time lurker on this sub) I decided a new approach; itty bitty baby steps.

Week 1 I cut all soda, ice cream, and candy out of my diet. Soda was easy because I rarely drink it anyway. Candy is one of my weak spots, but I’m hanging in there.

Week 2 I added cakes/pastries, fruit juices, and sugar syrups in my coffee. I also started taking a Luteolin supplement to help ease the transition even more.

I know I’m still very early in my journey, but I feel good about my progress so far and look forward to cutting more things in the coming weeks. I’m not seeing or feeling much change yet, but I’ve been picking healthier options to stock my pantry and learning to cook for the first time in my life. It’s a very empowering experience and I’m actually looking forward to a lifelong transition to a healthier diet. Wish me luck!
