Still Trying to Break the Sugar Addiction!
I am really having a rough time getting back on track after the Holidays. I fell off the bandwagon (yes, I was appalled too!) and ate sweets and can’t seem to quit! Man, now I have an idea of what quitting smoking is like! I get headaches that are alleviated when I eat sugar – a sign of addiction – man this is not good!
This really doesn’t have anything to do with willpower, I just HAVE to have sugar! My body is craving it – help!
I thought it would be good to do a little more research on the subject of sugar addiction and try to understand why my body is doing what it’s doing so maybe I can quit feeling guilty and move forward! If it helps you as well, WONDERFUL!
Here are a few articles I came across that are really good.

I’ve just finished reading your post on sugar and found it very interesting. Yes, North American people eat way too much sugar, like 160 pounds per person per year! WOW, is that crazy or what? And we wonder why we’re sick. After 15 years of practice, that’s the one thing I’ve noticed with clients when they attempt some type of diet/program. They just can’t give up sugar or carbs. Because of this challenge, I created a program to help people kick the sugar habit once and for all. It’s called 7DaySugarFreeDiet.com http://www.7DaySugarFreeDiet.com. So far, it’s helped hundreds of people get to the next level of optimum health. This is only one part of my journey to help people achieve a better health.
