Sugar I don't have to have, but man, deny me my daily diet pepsi and well, let's just say things could get ugly, very, very ugly. I wonder if I can get a diet pepsi on an IV drip????? LOL!!

i just .. stopped lmao. I'm incredibly stubborn i noticed ce was developing my bad habits too so i think that was the big motivator

I use Stevia instead of sugar. It's natural and much better than normal sugar.

[rach3975]

It's chocolate in any form for me. Pure chocolate is the hardest to resist, so I keep it out of the house. If it's here, I will devour it way faster than I should. But if I try to cut out all forms of chocolate, life with me gets very unpleasant. I used to get my daily fix from a small serving of chocolate ice cream, but it's getting harder to stop after my 1/2 cup.

Hi, my name is Mandy and I'm a sugar addict. I have been, forever. My parents used to joke about it when I was a teenager. It hasn't gotten any better.

[crecia27]

I'm right there with you. Heaven help the man, or child, that gets between me and my sugar! Thats why I have to follow a low carb diet to have any chance of losing weight cuz I just can't eat it in moderation! I need a 12 step program.

[adrianka]

I stopped with sugar twice, once for a year and once for about 6 months, for health reasons (but not to lose weight). The first 3 weeks are difficult, you get nasty cravings, but after that it stops. Actually, when I re-introduced it, I found some things intolerably sweet, and I still do so.

[carriesmom]

I go through spells where I just crave sugar and sweets, but honestly try and take my pasta away and I'll cut you!

[livelys]

I usually have small, naughty sweet snacks about for DH & son, and try to buy the stuff I don't like deliberately so I don't eat the lot myself. But I regularly test my will power, and alas fail miserably. For example, it was Pancake Day this week (aka Shrove Tuesday), and I rashly bought a jar of Nutella thinking I would resist.... I've just about eaten the LOT.

Diet pepsi just about runs in my veins - I couldn't do a day without it, either

[FeeJardine]

I can go without chocolate, chips...but I'm one cranky mumma if I don't have an iced coffee which is practically all sugar and caffeine!!!! Actually its no wonder I'm cranky if i don't get it lol!

I am with Nikki... I LOVE cakes and cookies and yummy baked goods. I have been trying to eat healthy, but this is my weakness too. Honestly tho, you have to give yourself a little break, because what fun is food that doesn't taste yummy?!?

[4noisyboys]

I'm off sugar and have been since the first of the year...I try to stay under 15 grams of sugar a day...which is hardly anything. I can have really dark chocolate though (85% or higher) and I have a few squares of it and a few raw almonds...and it makes me happy!
