The sugar free challenge has come to and end.

Last week I posted that I was going to try to go sugar-free for a week. About a week later and I’m done! I passed the challenge and it wasn’t as hard as I was expecting. Granted, I don’t think I could do it forever. I like my sweets too much. The hardest part was […]
