Day 1 Of Overcoming Sugar Addiction
Well, I admit I still felt bloated and eh from all of the sugar and processed foods on Thanksgiving.
Breakfast was easy. I skipped my coffee for green tea.
The grocery store was a little more challenging with the donuts smell drifting through the store .. but I did ok and bought some quick already cut up easy to-go snacks where I had one in the car.
And then around 10:30am without even thinking about it I started to lift the lid on the chocolate chip cookies.
I don't think I was even hungry. It was just habit. They are there - might as well have one. I quickly realized what I was doing and put the lid back down.
By afternoon ... the time where I usually cave... and then evening when my day is the most stressful, I struggled. I ate an apple with some string cheese. And then after dinner, I had a grapefruit.
I ended the night with chamomile tea and coloring.
I'm a little surprised at how hard today was. Usually day 1 isn't hard for me. But I've been putting down a lot of sugar in the last couple of weeks... and I mean a lot... so I'm sure my body didn't know how to handle today.
I know ya'll are pulling for me. I know you want me to succeed as much as I do. I'm giving it my best.
Day 1 is complete on my journey to overcoming this sugar addiction... on to day two.
Writing is one of my passions, and I'm stepping out there on faith to follow my dream. If you like this blog or this post, please take a moment to share it with friends.
