candy addiction

[LazyHermitCrab]

I've been eating too much candy this month. It's like an addiction... lol. This occurs when I have to deal with people sometimes. I'll eat a whole bag of candy beforehand (especially this month). I see a lot of people eat like a couple candies, and put it away. I just ate a whole bag of candycorn x.x The next trip to the dentist should be interesting, eh... Anyway any tips to stop this or anyone else going through this? Also... I just watched a documentary of japanese diet and I want this diet too but it's so hard!

How... can they survive?

Ah, candy. Giver of life, infuser of joy, widener of tummies. :bigsmile:

You just have to be vigilant. Be hard on yourself and tell yourself that you won't eat junk and stick to a good healthy plan.

Don't buy candy and keep it in your house, because the temptation will be too strong (trust me!). Don't shop when you're hungry. Take a shopping list and stick to it.

But - and this is important - don't deny yourself candy forever because life's too short. Everything in moderation, including moderation.

Eating more than that is technically wasting your beloved chocolate.

When I'm stressed I tend to eat a lot of junk food. Like today, I ate a whole entire package of cookies. A few days ago, I ate two bags of cheese curls. Ugh. Now I really feel like crap!

Sugar addiction is real. I know that for me, it is definitely real. Lol..

I keep chocolate stashed for all occasions. Sad/happy/stressed/hungry. But I love vegetables too (not together), so I do try to balance it all out...

But I can't open a bag of candy or chocolate and eat only a few pieces, so I try to only buy small bags on special occasions. Like movie night, or pay day.

Anyone ever tried a deep fried mars bar? They were a fad in Australia a while back, I always intended to try one but never did..

Sugar is supposed to be the most addictive substance in the world - worse than nicotine, marijuana, ice, cocaine. As someone who also binges on sugar, I know how hard it is to stop!

I remember many years ago there were chocolate-flavoured vegetables. Imagine a piece of broccoli tasting like a Cadbury block? No thanks! ::

My sugar cravings all but disappeared when I started getting rid of the yeast in my system. Yeast thrives on sugar and can actually make you crave it (as can other parasites.) Maybe you need to look into trying to kill off any yeast you might have? Just putting that out there.

The ones with all the Freddo's? I love those! $1 for a Freddo so I usually buy two or three. Or four. ::
