Monday, Nov 2 2009 - Lory vs. the candy monster

View MOUGHI's food & exercise for this day

Halloween has come and gone and I had my yearly battle with the candy monster. The monster won the battle which makes me more determined to give up sugar all together. I really do believe now my body can't handle sugar in any form, and that's not just because I'm a diabetic. Sugar just sets me off. I will break my diet if I even taste a sweet. This may include artificial sweeteners as well. So, I am going to try an experiment and go off the sugar first, the the sweeteners and see what happens. I will keep my fruits because they are natural foods and I need them.
I have been told by countless people this is what I should do, but I have always eaten a little sugar now and again. Granted, not much since I am a diabetic, but just enough once in a while. When I get bad, I really can get bad. I also have sugar pushers who even know I am a diabetic and try to push the stuff down on me. I think going hard core is going to make these people I see every week leave me alone some.
Well have a nice week.

That will be quite an undertaking. However, if anyone can pull that off, it will be you. YOu know your body better then anyone and I think is is fantastic that you are able to figure this out and do something about it. I am not diabetic but I am on the road to type 2 if I do not get this weight off. I am trying to watch my carbs and keep them under 50 at a meal because the insulin is a problem for me. I am curous to see how you make out.:wave1::heart1:

I can't believe people push sugar on you, that is just so wrong, I wonder if they try to sneak liquor into alcholic's drinks!!

I don't know anything about diabetes, but people who push suggars should be in jail. Why not ask them if they are trying to kill you?
What you have with sweets, I have with salty foods. The only thing that can stop the cravings is an apple. You are right not to give up fruits.
