The Rules For The Challenge Are Simple

The rules for the MPWLC 3-Day No Sugar, No Flour Challenge are simple and straightforward.

First, you should eliminate all flour and products made with flour.  This means avoiding items like white bread, most pastas, and fried foods coated in flour. This includes all flours, including almond flour, oat flour, whole wheat flour, etc.

Second, all refined sugars are off-limits. This includes products labeled with ingredients like cane sugar or fructose, so steer clear of regular sodas and other drinks that contain them. The one exception to this is fruit, as the natural sugars are processed more slowly by your body due to the fiber they contain. Look at the Nutrition Label. If it says Added Sugars are anything other than 0, it’s probably off-limits.

How to Participate

  • To get the most out of your experience, here are a few simple guidelines for how to participate and set yourself up for success:

    • Prepare in Advance: Before you begin, take the time to clean out your pantry of any sugar and flour temptations. A little meal prep goes a long way, so plan your meals for the three days to ensure you have approved foods ready to go.
    •  
    • Hydrate for Success: Make drinking water a priority throughout the challenge. Staying hydrated is key to managing cravings and feeling your best as your body adjusts. Our MPWLC expert, Deb Anderson, recommends a LARGE glass of water and a piece of fruit or veggies 30 minutes, before your meal, to help you feel satiated at the end of your meal.

    • Focus on Progress, Not Perfection: This is a short, yet powerful challenge. Don’t get discouraged if you have a slip-up. Just get right back on track with your next meal. The goal is to build momentum and prove to yourself that change is possible.

      Look For Hidden Sugars – Become a Label Detective

      Sugar hides in more foods than you might think — even ones that seem “healthy.” Food manufacturers often use different names to disguise added sugar on ingredient lists. When scanning a label, watch out for these common culprits:

      • Cane sugar
      • Corn syrup or high-fructose corn syrup
      • Brown sugar
      • Agave nectar
      • Honey (yes, it still counts as added sugar)
      • Maple syrup
      • Rice syrup
      • Evaporated cane juice
      • Maltose, dextrose, sucrose, glucose (anything ending in “-ose”)
      •  

      If any of these show up in the first few ingredients, it’s a sign the food is sugar-heavy — and could work against your blood sugar goals.

Together, we are building a movement that changes lives—one question, one answer, one step at a time.

Let’s help each other succeed.
