When I first started getting <a target = \"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thehappyhousewife.com\/real-life\/fit-for-good\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">fit for good<\/a> I ate poorly most of the time (especially soda!). It wasn&#8217;t until I changed how I ate that I really saw changes in how I looked, and more importantly how I felt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, almost eight years later I can skip the gym for a few days or even a week and still feel great, as long as I&#8217;m eating well. However, even if I&#8217;m going to the gym several times a week, if my diet is full of sugar and processed foods I start to feel crummy very quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>The No Sugar Challenge is simple. Stop eating sugar.<\/strong><\/em> You set the parameters, regarding whether you are going to try and substitute sugar with honey or agave or if you want to give up the sweet stuff altogether. My recommendation is that you give it up totally so that foods that are naturally sweet (mainly fruit) can serve as your sweet treats and you will be able to make better choices in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ve done many&nbsp;<strong><em>no sugar challenges<\/em><\/strong> in the past and I&#8217;m excited to be doing another one with you. For many people this is what it takes for them to give up their daily soda or candy habit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While we&#8217;re doing this challenge together beginning January 11th. Just sign up below and <em><strong>you&#8217;ll get daily reminders, helpful tips, encouragement and a free printable journal.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"733\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/thehappyhousewife.com\/real-life\/files\/2018\/01\/BLG-A184-3_No-Sugar-Challenge.jpg\" alt=\"21 day no sugar challenge \" class=\"wp-image-22775\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thehappyhousewife.com\/real-life\/files\/2018\/01\/BLG-A184-3_No-Sugar-Challenge.jpg 733w, https:\/\/thehappyhousewife.com\/real-life\/files\/2018\/01\/BLG-A184-3_No-Sugar-Challenge-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thehappyhousewife.com\/real-life\/files\/2018\/01\/BLG-A184-3_No-Sugar-Challenge-600x409.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 733px) 100vw, 733px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-the-no-sugar-challenge-works\">How the No Sugar Challenge works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Enter your email below to join the challenge. Then, on January 11th you&#8217;ll receive a series of emails from me with helpful tips, encouragement, and tactics to get rid of sugar. For 21 days we&#8217;ll work together to rid our bodies of sugar. There will be bumps along the way, but we will do it together!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year, I&#8217;m also giving away a free Sugar Journal to help you keep track of your journey. Over the years I&#8217;ve found that writing things down keeps me accountable. I&#8217;m also able to go back through my old journals when I need a boost of encouragement. Each day of the challenge you&#8217;ll receive the next page of the journal for you to print out at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you ready to take back your diet?
