I've Had Enough!

That's it! It's time for something to come to an end. Early this morning, I went on a nice long bike ride. I love bike rides because I always do my best thinking while enjoying the fresh air and peace of nature. Last night some nice friends brought over some yummy Easter treats. I completely over induldged myself and of course, woke up not feeling the greatest. So, it's time to make it known. I, Mari have an addiction to sugar! It's time to nip it in the bud. I'm tired of waking up with sore throats and having yeast issues during my pregnancy. I'm tired of not being able to control myself if there's sugar in the room. So there's only one thing to do: give it up! I'm letting everyone know (if anyone even reads this blog) that white sugar and any type of corn syrup will not be a part of my life any longer. I've had enough. So amongst all the Easter treats this weekend, I will not be partaking. Sugar: I will not miss all your negative side effects, speed to my aging, and nutritional depletion that you give to my body. I'm ready to be free and healthy! Anyone: if you read this, please the next time you see me, ask me how the sugar thing is going, I need to be accountable!

Anyone want to join me?

  1. I am addicted to sugar, too. Good luck! I wish I could join you, but I lack the self control!

  2. I'm working on it, Mari. I have succumbed to the temptation since I saw you last, but I am valiantly trying to be done with it. I'm tired of feeling yucky.

    By the way, I figured out how to make rice milk. Basically, I took cooked rice and blended it with water and added a little salt and a bit of honey. Creamy and tasty. Well, not quite as tasty as almond milk, but at least it's a start towards getting rid of the soy milk in our house. Though I love the flavor of it, I'm concerned about a) the cost, and b) what the soy hormones are doing to my kids' and my bodies.
