I am going to try this. I probably drink less than 16 oz of water a day, with the rest of my fluids primarly being orange or apple juice, with some sugary grape juice in between. And I eat a lot of sweets. I know it's not healthy, so yea, this is the first step.

When I was little I used to go on this long periods of 'no sugar' when I'd feel that I took in too much. Sometimes going a month without anyway. Stress, depression, etc made it all the more difficult to maintain that habit.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
