Don’t Worry, Eat Cookies

January 19, 2006

That’s my mother’s philosophy. Her words! She’s a life-long sugar addict.

As much as I try giving her books, sending her statistics, and even living as an example, nothing has swayed her from eating sweets.

It would make me happy if she quit for a month because she’s never been off long enough to feel the effects of being sugar free. She can’t do it.

She can’t do it because she doesn’t want to.

I can’t change everyone. I can’t change anyone, in fact. But sometimes I can influence someone to start doing something they were already thinking about doing.

And, at least, I can take care of myself.

About Me

I realized I had a sugar problem back in 2003 after a weekend-long binge on raw chocolate chip cookie dough and chocolate covered pretzels. As a result, I began trying to quit sugar but kept failing. Finally, I figured out a way to stay off sweet junk food for good.
