Sugar vs. Me: Holiday Edition
I’ve been playing the Sugar vs. Me game for several days now. Since I don’t keep sweets at home I haven’t had a bout with sugar—until last night!
A 2011 Holiday Sugar Challenge support meeting was held at the Zimmerman Community Center yesterday evening. When I arrived there was a nice couple cleaning up the remainder of a birthday party that had just happened there.
Before they left, the woman said, “If you and your group want, I left some chocolate mousse and coffee cake in the refrigerator. Feel free to eat it all. We can’t take it with us.”
I thanked her and they went on their way. Suddenly I was all alone with fresh cake. Yes, I looked at it. Chocolate mousse is one of my favorites! And the coffee cake looked amazing. I didn’t eat any of it.
Sugar 0, Me 1.
Alas, nobody came to the meeting. Who in their right mind would try to avoid sweets during the holidays? I must be a freak.

#1) You are terrific!
#2) I did well on our skiing vacation until the last day when an airline fubar made us miss our plane and we sat in the Denver airport for 12 hours with our two granddaughters. Desperation, exasperation, food vouchers from the airline all led to a free-for-all eating rampage which left me with sore joints, lower GI sufferings, and next day sugar headache.

Stress leads to sugar. No wonder it’s for sale in airports!

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