This is why one should always go running in the morning!
I always feel so refreshed after my morning runs!
For the past couple of days I have been feeling sucrose/glucose-intolerant (every time I thought of sugar I felt sick).
Today when I went on my morning run, a dear (very loyal) friend came along! It was great! I love running by myself but knowing that I am gonna be out in the freezing cold with my own thoughts doesn’t exactly *pop* me out of my bed in the morning.
However, I have found that at 7 in the morning I come up with “brilliant” ideas, like volunteering to go off sugar for a week with her.
I almost lasted a day.
Now, in my defense, my kind of sugar detox does not involve completely cutting out all sugar, just cutting out most of it.
Me being healthy
So, saying no to all sugar for a week..is well, something I would only say yes to at 7 in the morning!!
I had a very healthy breakfast and continued to “enjoy” my sugar-free day until I got home from Speech at 7 and started making brownies.
Let’s just say, Sugar-free week is starting tomorrow!
There is a little picture, hanging in my nana’s bathroom, with a picture of a rather fat hippopotamus staring into a river. The caption reads something along the lines of:
“No more pineapples,
no more guavas,
no more persimmons,
no more…
starting tomorrow”
So…
Running on Full 
Giving up sugar is so hard. I’ve only been able to go for a few days at a time at most and I always feel so amazing! And then… I get distracted by a treat and the addiction kicks in. Good luck 🙂
Best of luck… I was doing okay until I committed to post a new “Fun Fall Food” every single day in October. I’m thinking November should be “Broth-Based Soup” month. Keep your head up and keep running!!!
