Zero Sugar Diet – 17 Day start is now complete 

This time, I have been successful on the Zero Sugar Diet and the 17 days detox portion of the diet is complete.  I have not been fully successful.  I did have some sugary holiday snacks and Christmas cookies.  You can read my review of the Zero Sugar Diet: The Zero Sugar Diet: the Sugar Detox Diet.  I also have written several other posts on my attempts at this diet: Progress Report: 13 November 2017, Progress Report: 20 November 2017, Two Strikes on Zero Sugar Diet, Progress Report: 13 November 2017, and Zero Sugar Diet: The Midpoint

I am not happy with my ability to stick to the plan, but nearly 6 pounds lost is not bad.  

Changes:  

• Starting Weight: 210.8 pounds.
• Starting Body Fat: 23.6%.
• Current Weight: 204.3  pounds with 6.5 lbs lost.  
• Current Body Fat: I am currently 21.3 % with 2.3% loss so far.  That is likely an anomaly.  I suspect that is 1.8-2%
• Exercise: In the last 7 days, I have exercised over 180 minutes total.   
• Nutrition: 1600 calories a day with 35% protein and 35 grams of fiber average.  I have tried to avoid added sugar all but 5 days.  
• Vinegar: I have successful added 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. 
• Cinnamon: I took 1000 mg of cinnamon each day.  

I have decided to start this detox again on 3 January and see if I am able to stick to it more religiously.
