Good day everyone!!
Wow, I was ckeking I´ve not posted in three days. I login but I didn´t writte anything; these days were very bisy. Ok, I update my status… I´ve not eaten processed sugar all these days, I feel surprised because I haven´t ever arrived so far away.
I recieved my books yesterday at night, When I coming on the bus I was reading a little, I feel better, with more energy. Today It´s my sister´s birthsday, I´ll buy a cake and my mom invit us the dinner, she lives in other state of Mexico.
I was about to relapse yesterday, because I passed close to a shop where I used to buy cookies, but I had little time so I was hurry
Maybe you can try to learn who you are, what you want, what you like, what’s needed, what’s healthy.
I have a problem with substance.
I want to stay abstinent of substance.
I like progress and keeping track of progress
I need a healthy community to vent to.
I want healthy relationships with family and friends.
Good day, I know… I was thinking about it yesterday… my willpower is still weak. I can´t trust my brain yet… I learn a lot myself in this process, when you try to quite an addiction… It´s a journey in oneself. On the other hand I used to like sugar (Processed sugar), but when I found out it was hurting me… my mind changed, I changed.
It all started when I drank a soda and when I finished it my stomach started feeling bad, little by little I ate less sugar beacuse my body was telling me, bro you need to eat less sugar. I was curious about what was happening to me, I read a lot about processed sugar and I was surprised, how is it possible that we eat this every day.
How is it possible that something so deliciuos, it was hurting my body? But recovering is hard, for example in my case, my environment doesn´t help me a lot.
In the morning I see my friends eating cookies, when I´m working to find them eating candies, when I go to eat, I find them eating chips, only in the evening I feel more relaxed but my mind wants to eat sugar beacuse I saw sugar all day long… this is hard!!
This time I brought food from my house, I´m not going out… I brought my book as also because some words I can´t understand and I write them in a notebook.
Hello, new day! Yesterday was more relaxed. I had cravings, but I admit I can control them more easily now. Every saturday I used to buy dessert after meal, two pieces of bread, cookies or soda, in the morning I also bought bread, that was the reason because I felt tired after, “imagine me in the office working but sleepy haha”. Yesterday I had more energy, but I can’t help it, the whole day I was very uncomfortable.because my brain was asking me for sugar (Courios because not natural sugar; processed sugar)
This is the book that is help me a lot; maybe someone already know it:
I´m starting to understand my body!!
Ok, I’m off! I have a karate practice and I need to eat something good (protein my bros haha) I didn’t remember if I commented before but I’m 7 kyo. I´ll see you all tomorrow, good day!!
Good day, starting a new day. ok, I took for a walk beacuse my sister was using the computer, I went to the park, there were many people. I dicided to buy some… yes, some sweet (cookies)… bad idea I know. I was writting some notes in my vocabulary notebook while I was eating, I finished at 8 pm. It was already late, I follow writting at home, my sister still used the computer.
Some strange to happen to me, because I was tired, I want ro sleep, I could feel the tired in my body but I couldn´t do it… My body is tired so because I can´t sleep. And I remmember that I ate those cookies… This morning I woke up tired… My glucose levels was afected for my spike of sugar last night.
It´s new to me but I discovered that I don´t need sugar to feel me well… In fact nobody needs sugar to feel with energy, at least processed sugar. We can find good glucose in others foods more healty.
Last time, I had commented about my enviroument, yesterday when I went out, everybody was eating processed food, chips…candies (kids)… sodas. Fuck, I didn´t realize about it, now I understand why Mexico has much overweight, Ours eating habits are very bad.
On the other hand My body is undestanding how to control cravings.
Other day… I could control my cravings… At nigth I went to buy bread for my sister, her breakfast is a sandwich… I saw a piece of bread of chocolate haha… I laught at myself while writting beacuse how is possible a thing so small can interfere…I didn´t buy it, my willpower is more strong, I´m surprised beacuse my old me would have bought it.
Everything was a mirage beacuse when I went out of the bakery, that feeling to eat it, it off. I need to control my mind beacuse where I work there are a lot of noise, that stress me and that causes me cravings…
Yesterday I have little time off, I had to do other activities. Every morning from monday to friday, I practice Karate in a park that it´s close where I livining; There were people training soccer (kids), here in Mexico the soccer is verryyy popular, people was watched me with a strange face haha I think It´s not very common practice karate, only in dojos. I have only seen them two times…
My point is that I have more energy, In the past, I didn´t want to get out of bed. Ok, this is other day!!
Thanks… Now I feeling more responsabiltiy haha. I only writte but I really didn´t know if someone is wached me every day. Let´s do it!!
This time was a busy day… I could practice again in the park… kids were there again, I thing They´ll training as well. But some kids are a bit rude with my space; but I don´t mind; they are kids… they are excited for their training, They love soccer like I love karate.
I drank a cup of coffe but without sugar, It´s not first time, its flavor is verryyy different… Remember when I drank it firts time haha. I asking myself " How turks love drinking coffe like that"…
It was a bit of a stressful day. But I could do everything not very well, but well. When I finish to writte this day, I need to study others things…I´m tired but I need to follow improving my skills,this change is not the only one in my life, it’s everything…
First I needed to remove my PMO adicction (this is my 298 day sober)… Now I have so much energy, but now I want to remove the processed food adiction. ok, see you tomorrow!! Good night!!
I have posted but I didn´t have a solid goal; I´ll use this app to measure my progress.
my goal: 15 days
Here are the rules.
Not sodas
Not candies
Not cookies
Not juices (Any kind)
Not Milk with chocolate
Not coffe (Only without sugar)
I can eating or drinking:
Bread (Without much sugar and it must be natural, not packaged)… Later I´ll let to eat it, but I have many strict rules and I can fail if I streigh a lot.
Thanks…The app remains me my count of sober, it sends me notifications, I like it!!
My mind doesn´t like that idea, it´s asking for sugar, 8 days ago I went out to the park,I wanted to go out today but it´s late, I preferred to stay at home.
In the morning we had karate practice, our sensei told us that in 8 days we´ll have an exam. I´m nervous but I trust myself. In the afternoon I felt like an ice cream for hot weather. ok, my app says “Day 1 and counting”
Here to support you. Added sugar and UltraProcessedFoods are very addictive and I have struggled with this addiction for a very long time. Currently I am at 500 days free of added sugar, and just yesterday reached one year freedom from UltraProcessedFoods.
It is hard work, as this stuff is everywhere and it is difficult to refuse it. But you can do this. We are here for you!
Thank you so much!! Yes, sugar is everywhere, even in fried food…
Yesterday was a difficult day, at noon I had a headache and a lot of anxiety because there was a only one thought in my mind “Eat some of sugar”. Addictions are the hell
It´s something that hurts you but your body to wants it.
This is my day 3, but the app says “3 hours to complete my third day” I think it’s because the timer starts when I downloaded it.
Other day in this adventure!!
Hi everyone… this way is becoming difficult but I already knew it… it won´t be easy.
