I WAS ADDICTED

I have a confession. I am a recovered addict. 

I am not ashamed to admit this and I am very proud to say that I have been clean (well pretty much), for many years now.

What was my drug of choice you ask? Well I was hooked on the white stuff... sugar.

I would crave it all hours of the day. To make things worse it is in just about everything I would eat. Hidden with names like high fructose corn syrup. It was in my cereal, my ketchup, salad dressings, spaghetti sauce, everything.

So how did I kick the habit? It wasn't easy but I changed how I ate. I got rid of processed foods with hidden sugars and began eating whole foods; fresh fruits, veggies, lean meats, nuts.

Then my cravings gradually disappeared and now I control when and what I eat. It doesn't control me.
