Sometimes it's good to give up. This week I decided it was time to give up. Not everything...just one thing that tends to make me miserable even though I love it so. You see, I'm a sugar addict. Yep, there it is. Chocolate is my nemesis. There is no such thing as "just a bite" of chocolate, if there is in fact more than a bite to be had. What brought this up? Well, I've been feeling crappy. Physically, emotionally, mentally...all of it. And, if I'm already feeling the grumps what do I want to do? Eat more sugar. I think it finally clicked last week when I made (within a span of two days) oatmeal cookies, chocolate cupcakes and banana muffins (with chocolate frosting of course). And of course they were gone within a couple of days. I did have help...the sweet tooth runs in the family.
On Tuesday night I decided enough was enough. Some people might be able to live off sugar (I won't name any names here), but I certainly cannot. I remember last year feeling so much better eating whole foods and no sugar. So, I told Casey to be sure and remove all the chocolate that doesn't have any wheat in it and bless his heart he did. So, I'm only a few days sugar-free, but I already feel SO much better.
Here's to my sanity!
