The 21 day SUGAR detox
May 4, 2020 in Chile ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C
Now is the perfect time to try out new things. New things like baking banana bread, grow out greasy hair or ... make a sugar detox!! 😬
Kait did this special detox several times already. And since we ate a lot of junk food lately, she wanted to start it again. 💪🏻
It sounded really interesting so I decided to give it a try. 🤩
We celebrated our last evening in "freedom" with alcohol and Berliner. Starting the next morning, no sugar any kind (including wheat, etc.) were allowed to be eaten. ❌🍦❌
To be honest: it wasn't easy most of the time. 😨
I had the feeling that the rest of the group made very delicious dinner now without us, and Alex even made fluffy Berliner with a soft chocolate core inside!! 😡
A lot of things contain sugar, even in products you would never expect it to be. 🙈
But I liked to try out new recipes, new food like Quinoa and I could see many advantages: I wasn't craving for food any longer throughout the day!
The 21 days have passed now.
We tried new recipes. I failed with my Keto bread, but absolutely fall in love with Quinoa!! 💛🧡💚
And I realised something: I ❤️ to bake!
While traveling, it is not easy to find alternatives to bake without sugar and flour. For example, I was so happy when I found flea seed flour in a supermarket - but let's not talk about the costs. 😒
I really enjoyed my time with Kait, to plan, to shop and to cook together with her. Buuuut ... I am happy to be back to some sugar and flour at least. Less meat and less cheese.
And I am happy to be back to baking delicious desserts. 🥧🍰🍮
