We've got sugar on the brain here at That's Fit. I don't eat it, Bethany banned it for seven days (even got a nod from Glamour magazine), Karla is doing it (and re-doing it), Bev is taking a stab at ditching the refined stuff and Martha would love scrap it too. How about you? Here's what 97 of you told us in a recent poll that asked: Sugar: How Long Can You Go Without?

  • 18 of you (18.6 percent) can do anything for day.
  • 21 of you (21.6 percent) say you'll give it a week.
  • 21 of you (21.6 percent) report that a month would be tough, but you're willing to try.
  • Nine of you (9.3 percent) say a year isn't a problem.
  • One of you (1 percent): A year. You wish.
  • 22 of you (22.7 percent) declare that you will never go without sugar.

Thanks for the great responses, everyone. We hope you make good on your sugar intentions. For those of you who think a sugar ban will never be in your future, humor us and give it a try. We predict you won't be sorry.
