New Year’s Challenge Announcement

By

Hello Everyone!

I know the holidays are probably making you busy, but if you can take a couple minutes out of your day to think about joining the New Year’s Resolution Sugar-Free Challenge, I would greatly appreciate it. I promised you all a New Year’s Challenge, and here is your chance to sign up! 

I reviewed all of your responses from the last challenge and tried to incorporate as many of your requests as possible. Here are some of the changes I made for this challenge:

  • Challenge lasts the full month instead of just ten days
  • There is an optional “Break the Habit” period of one week where you can eat one piece of sugar per day in order to ease into the challenge.
  • There is an optional exercise challenge for those who would like to jump start an exercise routine with simple exercises for beginners.
  • I created a checklist you can print off in order to keep you motivated and on track.
Eventually I would like to create a calendar or spreadsheet that everyone can access and leave comments on in order to help each other out in a group setting. However, I still need to research this a bit and figure out how exactly to set it up. If there are any computer-geniuses out there, do you know a way to do this? Any help would be greatly appreciated, and it would improve the quality of the challenge.

Still questioning whether to sign up?

Take a look at a sample day of a sugar-free challenge HERE. 

Many of the challenge participants reported increases in energy, clearer skin, and some weight loss. Couldn’t you benefit from this?

  2. Sounds great! I am totally off grains again but sugar has stuck around. This could be the kick in the pants I need. Thanks!

  3. I’m actually starting a sugar-free challenge on my blog that starts February 1st, so although I won’t be participating in your January challenge, I will definitely be checking in and encouraging my readers {If I have any that is, my blog doesn’t officially open until January 1st} to come check your blog out.

    I’ve never done a sugar-free challenge before, so this is going to be very interesting! I’m hoping to follow it up with a gluten-free challenge also.

    Good luck!

  4. For the spread sheet, could you make a google doc? This is a great challenge and I would participate if I was not already sugar free (and happy to be!) 🙂

    • Hi Phoenix,

      That is what I was thinking….but I’ll have to look into it more! Can others “comment” on the google doc spreadsheet? Because I would love it to be interactive!

  5. I’ve been following your blog for a while now, but I don’t think I’ve ever commented. just wanted to say that I love the fact that you do these challenges!! what an inspiration! I would join the challenge but I’ve already been sugar free for a year now so it wouldn’t be much of a challenge, haha! I do use stevia as a sweetener though, but in moderation, because I can’t eat fresh or dried fruit. I need a little bit of sweetness every once in a while;) your recipes are amazing btw!

    • Hi Lauren!!!

      Thanks so much for commenting, and I am glad you enjoy my blog! Congrats on being sugar-free for a year! That is a big accomplishment! keep up the good work 😀
