Dinner and Dessert

As of late I’ve managed to maintain my eating habits as well as my energy levels.

The other night I was out for a nice dinner when it came time to order dessert. The “sugar issue” came up again. Everyone at the table knows I’m not eating sugar but not everyone seemed to understand why. Some offered their own stories about getting the shakes and how sugar is the only thing that gives them that immediate burst of energy so they reach for candy. I said that’s the worst thing to do but they didn’t seem to care because it doesn’t happen often enough.

The interesting thing was that none of them seem to “get” that if I start to eat sweets it’s just a matter of time before sweets are all I eat. The good thing is that at this point they all know I’m not going to eat dessert and so nobody thinks twice when I don’t get any.
