So we decided to start a competition to see who can go two month's without any granulated sugar in our diet (less than 3 g. ) starting August 1st. It is more work to look at food labels....but it sure pays off by losing a few pounds and just think of your health! So if you are up for a challenge to better your health send me an email at mbrownfitness@yahoo.com and I will keep bothering you during the competition.Oh...I forgot, you get one cheat day a week (that might change a few peoples mind:)

girl, you're such a downer! just kidding. i seriously admire your commitment to your health. i'm hoping it will rub off on me. but i'm going to have to start off with an easier challenge. i think this one would kill me! :)
Wow - I don't think there's any way I can consider doing this. I'm too much of a candy person. However -- reading what you had to say about sugar is going to at least encourage me to lay off some.
Megan, I am Natalie's friend Danielle. We've met a few times, but you probably don't remember me. Anyway I am up for your challenge. So look for my email!
Oh and awesome website.
Thanks for writing this.
