Hey Judy, welcome aboard !! I bought the book at an airport, and within a week, I'd stopped eating sugar, and within a month, I lost 10 kg. I feel a lot better, and I just love that I'm not constantly drawn to food, I actually feel full. I suspect I came off sugar easier than most, which is odd, given how much I used to eat, so, don't take any one person's story as something you have to live up to, the important thing is, to stick to it, and you will reap the rewards.
