I have decided to tackle a sugar addiction. Is there anyone else doing the same?

> I have been wanting to cut out added sugar from my diet and record the health benefits so I thought I’d start my own topic here. I have been binging a lot on sugary treats desserts, chocolate, gelato and pastries. And I’ve been having more headaches lately in the morning and more back pain. Probably from inflammation. I want to count the days and give up extra added sugar. I’m already freaking out a bit about a future without sugar. Holidays, special occasions, fancy restaurants, no more gelato…

Yes, I’m struggling big times with this! For me sugar in my drug of choice. Started bingeeating sugar as a child and never stoped. Have this false feeling off hiw safe and comforted I feel when bingeing. It’s the same uncontrolled eating as drinking alcohol. It ruins my mental health. Was sugar free for a couple a month and then I just thought that I could have just one piece of candy and it went down hills again. Decibel yesterday evening to get clean and get help today and started to write here. How is it going for you?
