Hi. I’m Pat. I am a white sugar, empty calories, baked goods addict. Yes an addict.
Over the last 2 years my husband and I have been changing our eating lifestyle. We have basically eliminated processed foods except alternative meat products. All white sugar and white flour products were gone. And then Thanksgiving and Christmas of 2018 happened. In my limited wisdom I decided we could have a little of the forbidden foods. Well, we must still be celebrating because that little has grown. We still eat plant-based with the exception of those addicting baked goods. A muffin or cookie here. Hamburger buns there. Cake? Just a small piece please.
It is now March and I am still trying to get free. Next week we begin an intense detox. Hubby’s doctor prescribed it for his heart health. I just need to be delivered. Never thought it would be this hard to walk away from those foods. It was easier the first time.
So to all who want to cheat a little
DON’T DO IT. THE SUGAR MONKEY IS REAL

Oh truer words have never been spoken. Sugar and flour has been out of my body for over 7 years now. I don’t ever want to eat like that again. I am a food addict. My portion controller is broken 😦 I weigh and measure even the good healthy foods, because as an addict I sometimes can’t stop eating even ‘healthy’ foods. Food packages are either sealed or they are empty. I understand your struggle Pat. I pray God helps you get back on track. It’s hard once you give in, but you can do it with God’s help and friends and family support. 🙂
