Confession

This post is more about me than my kids or how I feed them. I must confess, I have a TERRIBLE sweet tooth. I can seriously eat cookies or cake all day. The older I get, the worse it gets. I will go as far as to say it is an addiction. I work out 5 days a week and otherwise watch what I eat, but I have got to get rid of the excess sugar in my life. I shouldn't be eating anything I have to sneak to eat so my kids won't see me.

Starting today, I'm giving it up. I'm posting this for the world to see for accountability. I'm also posting this because my addiction is part of the reason I feed my kids the way I do. I don't want them to ever have to deal with a sugar addiction.

If you have any advice for me, I'm all ears!

  2. Get a copy of the South Beach Diet book and do the phase 1 for 2 weeks. It is designed to break cravings like this. It is worth a try.
