7 Days To Breaking Up With Sugar

"I have never realized that I eat sugar out of boredom or manipulated by social conditions"

Hi, my name is Irina and I am sugar-addicted. I have tried to reduce sugar various times, with amazing results for my body and motivation so I gave this program a try because I already knew there will be benefits in increased awareness and tools for decreasing sugar. 
You see, I am very much detailed oriented but before ‘7 days for breaking up with sugar’ I did not fully grasp on how much sugar (under different names) is in non-deserts or beverages. Also, I have never realized that I eat sugar out of boredom or manipulated by social conditions (‘if you go through tough times, is perfectly acceptable to make yourself happy/whole with desserts’). I would have liked to connect with other students from my area to exchange ideas about the topic and further deepen my awareness and knowledge. I trust Mindvalley will open up this soon.
