No sweets for my sweet, no sugar for my honey


I actually woke up this morning after dreaming about a fry up mmmmm. I wanted nothing more than to go down the stairs and make 2 fried eggs, 2 slices of toast and a load of beans. So up I got and headed downstairs with the munchkin and got the eggs out. Then I thought “Noooo, what ARE you doing!? You don’t go to the gym every day to try and ditch flab to just eat it back on with a fry up!”. So I ended up having some soup and bread for my brunch.

However the bigger problem is sugar. Yesterday I was treat free with the exception of 1 hot chocolate which was only 40 calories. Today I am REALLY struggling. I WANT sugar, in fact its invading a lot of my thoughts right now and I really want to make some pancakes, dust them with sugar and just eat them!

So I am wondering, how long does it take the body to realise it doesn’t need all the sugar you have been feeding it and to stop craving it so badly?

Normally when I want sugar and I am trying to avoid it I have a diet coke… however I stupidly decided now would be a good time to try and give up on having so much of it too. I was having a bottle or a can a day at work, 6 months ago that would have been unthinkable to me as I really wasn’t a huge fan of fizzy drinks and never really have been. So again I ask,
how long will it take me to stop craving fizzy drinks and to be happy with water or squash?


Argh so stressed out, I should NOT be this stressed out about sweet food and fizzy drinks. I think I need to go for a quick shower and then head to the gym. P.s. that may seem an illogical way round, but I haven’t showered after yesterdays gym session so I need to wash my hair before I go out
