Man gives up added sugar and alcohol for one month and loses weight

We have all heard about the negative effects sugar has on our body and why we should be cutting it out entirely from our diet.

To see if eliminating the sweet stuff really makes a difference, Dutch man Sacha Harland attempted to live for a month without consuming sugar or alcohol.

The experiment has been documented in a six-minute Lifehacker video that takes the viewer through his emotional journey and resulting gratifying results: weight loss of ten pounds and decreased blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol.

Not at all unusual. I gave up sodas and junk food and lost 20 lbs. in a month.

I lost 10 lbs within a month just by eliminating sweets, nothing else.

Carbs no good. Fat is good. Government lied and people got diabetes. Read about it people.
