I’m taking a break from sugar for a while, I am on day three. I don’t want to make it a permanent and exclusive thing as total restricting of any kind is not good for my eating habits. I have really enjoyed becoming more relaxed around food in my sobriety and it’s a big part of my recovery to let this obsession go.
that said my anxiety has been through the roof lately and the sugar is not helping. I already feel better physically being off it for the time being.

wanna express support for everyone on this journey! :broccoli: :avocado: :cheese:

Made it to 30 days holy moly I am in shock. The sweets in the breakfast bar at the hotel I stayed at post op nearly got me. Been eating so many carrots instead! Makes me curious if I hadn’t cut out the sugar if inflammation during recovery would be worse.

Thank you thank you :blush: :blush:
The healing is rough. The pain isn’t bad but it makes it very difficult & uncomfortable to sit around for 10 hour work days. And just trying to figure out how to live like this, not even able to do my basic lil bedtime yoga routine. Good ole one day at a time and just trying to focus on what I actually can do each day. Looking forward to Friday when I am able to ease into some light indoor cycling.

I found a whole section of cookies by these people that are sugar free!

That’s dangerous! I would definitely eat way too many of those. I have to avoid the cookie aisle all together. Oreos and Tim Tams always get me.

Noice. But I’m on probation from the sugar free bing devils for a couple of weeks.

Oreos are a weak place for me too so I don’t buy them. The hubs likes his junk :expressionless: so I have just been getting an alternate in case I get a sweet craving. I don’t want to turn to his chocolate chips cookies lol

Day 36
Opened my fridge to find a tray full of brownies and cake from my aunt. :flushed: :sob: I almost forgot again for a minute that I’m not doing sugar and was ready to pop the tiniest brownie in my mouth. Ugg. Why does she tempt me like this.
