My Very First Blog Post!:) Ready For This Fun Adventure!!

Welcome to my first blog post! I was some-what talked into this in order to keep me motivated and accountable while I complete the 21-Day Sugar Detox.. more on that later.

Little bit about myself.. I am a crazy busy first year first grade teacher and JV girls basketball coach in a brand new city, school, and community. Over the last year I have slowly gotten into working out more, eating better, and trying to live a healthier life style. Since school started in September my working out slowly started to tapper off, and my diet has gotten worse throughout the year. The month of December was especially bad in the healthy life style department.

This has lead me to doing the 21 Day Sugar Detox (21DSD) program.. Which, have I mentioned I attempted and FAILED in November. This time.. I am determined! Throughout the month of December I knew that after the holidays I was going to need to change something, or I was going to really regret it.

So.. here I am, the day before day 1 of the 21DSD, writing a blog post about this journey.

Today I decided to sleep in and enjoy my bed for as long as possible, even though I knew it would most likely make sleeping tonight nearly impossible. Over the weekend I had made a grocery list and meal plan to get me through the week. When I finally rolled outta bed I made it to Fred Meyers and got everything I needed to prepare for the week. 

Once I got home the prepping began. I made sugar free apple sauce, bone broth, BBQ sauce (which required carmelized onions that were delicious!), and pumpkin pancakes. All of these are sugar free and gluten free. 

It is now time to get ready for tomorrow. I need to make dinner (which will be lunch for tomorrow), write my parent letter, and pack my clothes for after my 6 am basketball practice tomorrow (YUCK).

Sugar free BBQ sauce. Freezing the container on the right.

Carmelized onions for the BBQ sauce, so delicious!
