I Quit Sugar
by Sarah Wilson
This book gave me conflicting feelings. At first I was excited and inspired by it. She made it seem so simple and convinced me to try her plan! However, like many reviewers have mentioned, she's light on the science and actually contradicts herself in some of it.
Let's start with the good parts:
- the ideas in this book got me thinking about how much sugar I consume, and ways I can reduce and eliminate it.
- I enjoyed the pictures and layout of the pages, and it was very approachable. I finished it in one sitting.
-some recipes seem interesting, although I haven't tried any yet.
The not so great parts:
-the plan is over simplified. She doesn't do a good job of detailing the steps.
- she breezes over the science and some of it just seems absurd. (The whole cave man logic...what the?!)
-contradictions - she tells you to ease your way into in for the first two weeks, then go cold turkey. So you're not actually going cold turkey..?
-her ambivalent approach to how to make this sustainable left me wanting more.
