Sugar is the Enemy

I always knew sugar was the enemy but when I heard Jorge Cruise say it last week on “Regis and Kelly” it really made sense.

I for one am addicted to sugar. I LOVE it. I think about it all the time. It drives me crazy when it is in the house and I plan my meals around it.  I have always had a sweet tooth, but sometimes it is way out of control. Especially between Halloween and New Years.

It’s the same thing every year I gain the 5lbs that make my jeans tight and makes me hate my body. I know I shouldn’t say hate , but when everything feels tight it is depressing.

I really got inspired by what Jorge said and I will try my best to wean off the sugar. So far I have been good the past few days. To help me wean off , I bought 85% chocolate bar to have a piece or 2 after dinner. I feel this is a good solution compared to having 8 cookies or 2 pieces of cake after dinner plus whatever else I would consume before dinner.

I also want to cut back the red wine consumption to Saturday night. It has been especially hard the past 3 months since I’m going away for the winter, I have had a lot of going away party dinners ect…. Everything revolves around food.

Check out Jorges website and let me know what you think. Cheers, Joey

p.s. also check out my food diary if you have any tips or recipes to share
