It’s April Fool’s month. This month it’s okay to be a fool! That means eat as much sweets as you possibly can. If you would normally eat a cookie after dinner, eat ten! If you usually have glass of soda pop a day, drink a liter! Go shopping and get all the sweet treats you love to eat and nosh on them until you feel so sick you could become sick! Gross yourself out! Seriously.
Feed your kids candy and ice cream for dinner and then have cookies for dessert. Brush your teeth with Cheese Whiz. Replace water with chocolate milk. Eat bakery-made pies each night. Wake up to Pop-Tarts, Cocoa Puffs, syrup covered pancakes and a glass of sweetened orange drink. Have Gatorade for brunch. Go out for fast food at east once a day, but preferably for lunch. Supersize everything and don’t drink diet sodas, get the HFCS sweetened stuff.
In removing sweets from my diet, I once spent some time purposefully overeating my trigger foods (chocolate covered pretzels, mmmmmm!) to the point where I’d feel nauseous. The result was that I began to create a negative association with the tasty treats I previously loved so much. In fact, when I looked at them in the store my first feeling was repulsion because they had made me feel ill so many times.
So go ahead, be a fool! Eat like a fool! Spend your entire savings on candy. Do it for a whole month. You know you want to. This is it. Summer is coming and that means beach body madness…
I think I inadvertently did this with my kids’ Easter candy just last night.

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.
Don’t quit sugar. Stop Being Sweet instead! Questions? Please ask!
