OMG!!!! I have decided to quit added sugar and I must say I underestimated how difficult it would be.
I'm not craving sugar so much, as I am just having difficulties dealing with the withdrawal symptoms. So Far I've got:
-Massive headache on one side of my head (which means that I also have a really bad sensitivity to light and sound)
-nausea
-lightheadedness
-I am absolutely exhausted.
I really underestimated how much of my food actually contained sugar. So now when I pick food I am not just looking at the calories, but also the sugar content per serve.
I am still aiming to eat two pieces of fruit per day and keep my sugar consumption to under 10grams perday.
I can't wait untill all the ill side effects wear off and I can get back to normal.
