attempting to kick sugar addiction

Hi all... At various times during my life, for whatever reason, sugar attacks me in a very mean way. I'm attempting ONCE AGAIN to bring it under control. Please send Reiki for strength. I've been walking four miles a day for almost two months now and would like to add a healthy diet to that as well.

Love, light and laughter...passion

Hi passion:

I can relate. I have always taken over 3 teaspoons of sugar in my tea even when I worked at a Hospital. Cakes, cookies, candy, etc. etc. is my weakness.
About 4 weeks ago I bought Suzanne Sommers new book and have not had any sugar. I do use sugar substitutes, and buy some diabetic chocolate bars so it really helps. I believe if I can do this anyone can and my family are still in shock.

I also do hypnosis and had it done on me that I think helped so you my want to try that.

I will also send Reiki.

Love and light

I also have an addiction to sugar and have suffered terribly from it, migraine headaches, and physical exhaustion so bad I can hardly get out of bed.

I once did not eat sugar at all for 1 whole year in 1989 and I never felt better in my life. I to am trying to get back to that and have a more disciplined diet without sugar now. I have had moderate success but it has been hard, there are so many temptations. Especially hard I find in social situations, chocolate is a real weakness too. I find chocolate can bring on depression for me so I really pay.

Let me know if you find any good tips or suggestions.Good Luck.
Reiki Blessings

passion,

/*\ Namaste :-}}

- you are added to my list for nightly Reiki practices

- sugar inandofitself is not 'bad' - many fruits and vegetables have all sorts of natural sugars that are very healthy for most of us

- but, yes, detox from processed sugars can be tough

- sometimes switching to unprocessed sugar (turbinado sugar for example) can be a helpful intermediary step

reiki all around,

all blessings,
