Are you addicted to sugar?

My biggest problem when I get off track of watching what I eat is that I always end up eating junk food with lots of sugar in it.... cookies, candy bars, ice cream, and anything with sugar in it. I fully admit that I am a sugar addict.

Now that I'm back on track for 2008, what can I do about it? Well, I did a little research this week to try to figure out why I always end up eating the things that I promise myself I won't. I know I wrote above that I'm a sugar addict. Unfortunately, I'm not joking. I really am addicted to sugar, much the same that a smoker is addicted to nicotine or an alcoholic is addicted to booze.

So what can I do about it? After reading the ebook Weight Loss: How to Keep Your Commitment, I've learned how to say "no thanks" to fattening food, without having to struggle with cravings. I'm now eating nutritious food without feeling deprived, and without obsessing about the fattening food I chose not to eat. It taught me specific mental skills that help me to rise above the addictive cravings for sugar and fat.

If you want to learn more about how to cure your sugar addiction, I suggest you check out this great e-book by Jonni Good, Weight Loss: How to Keep Your Commitment. I honestly believe that you won't regret it. Even if you do, she offers an 8 week money back guarantee and you still get to keep the e-book! What have you got to lose, except your sugar addiction.

Have a Great day!

Where can you get help?

Have you ever had one of those days when everything hurts? Like when you exercise for the first time and the next day, your muscles hurt with every single movement you make. Unfortunately, for some people, their body hurts constantly...

My Becca has suffered from a constant daily headache for 2 1/2 years. Yes, years. She has a headache every single day of her life. Some days, it's so bad, she can't get out of bed. Other days, it's bearable enough for her to go to school, but hard for her to concentrate. After countless doctor and hospital visits, and prescription after prescription of pain medication that did absolutely nothing, they diagnosed her with New Daily Persistent Headaches. The headaches will some day just disappear as quickly as they came. We're counting the days till that happens.

Some people have pain that is so intense that they may become addicted to prescription meds. To get pain pill addiction help, they can go to Meditox, which is a safe, confidential and effective home based medical detox program. We're extremely lucky that we haven't had to worry about that with Becca. But knowing the pain that she is in every day, I can understand why some people may become addicted to prescription drugs.
