Taking the first steps.

For the past couple of weeks I have been reading David Gillespies' books - The Sweet Poison Quit Plan and Sweet Poison. I was shocked. I had no idea that sugar could be that bad. Sure I was like everyone else in thinking 'everything in moderation'. Then I started to monitor what I ate. Again I was shocked. If I ate sugar in the morning I wanted it throughout the day. Surprise, surprise!! 

So I am going to win a battle I have been having with myself for the past 25 years. Sugar!! I have gone through my kitchen and have thrown away everything with sugar in it. I am now going through what I like to call 'sugar rehab' I have the shakes, chills and a headache and it is only day 1!!! It can only get better from here. Right??

  1. It CAN get better from here. I'm only just over a week in, but I can already notice the difference!

    I was weighing up the odds the other day:

    Sugar Cons: obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cellulite, cancer... etc.

    Sugar Pros: makes things taste sweet

    Seriously? There is no competition!

    Hang in there. You have me cheering you on!
