7 Ways To Quit Sugar
I used to eat a lot of sweets. I love chocolate bars, cookies, ice cream…Milka, lindt, godiva, twix, mars, you name it. As long as it could satisfy the sugar & chocolate craves, I wasn’t picky. I ate candy bars several times a day, every day! I would always buy two bars so I could eat one on the way home, and the second as a treat after dinner. Until one day my body simply said NO to white sugar. But my mind and my heart love chocolate and I couldn’t imagine giving it up. That’s when I discovered raw desserts and started creating a new world for myself.
