sugar

I hate sugar. No wait, I LOVE sugar. Ugh. Sugar just sucks. Alcohol, caffeine, heroine, and all the bad drugs combined do not even come close to the damage that sugar causes. It is amazing how we get all up in arms about all the dangers in the world when this silent substance slowly kills us all.

Sugar. When will I ever get over the addiction? It is seriously the last real vice I have in my life. I feel like a morphine addict. I quit for awhile and then come back. I fall off the wagon and binge on a bunch of chocolate all day. Easter is supposed to be a time of renewal, but No, this rabbit has to come into my house and leave tempting morsels of sugar everywhere.

I have kicked the habit many times only to come back again. See saw back and forth, recovering sugar addict here on day 1 again. Blast it!

Sugar makes me feel bad, puts me in a bad mood, hurts my sleep cycles, causes mental energy fatigue, causes despondency and digestion issues. Why oh why do I eat it! It is not even that good, really. Ok, well, maybe it is yummy but those moments are so fleeting and temporary. The guilt is not worth it!

Ugh, the great weapon of the adversary is not disease and pestilence it is sugar. If this COVID thing continues for much longer it is going to be sugar that kills me long before the virus.
