no sugar: the aftermath
Since eating that first azuki cream puff on Friday, I have eaten (not including breakfasts):
- dutch marzipan fruit loaf for dinner
- a whole bunch of chocolate
- a very sweet granola bar
- pizza (non-sugary, but it was topped with potato, so very carbohydrate-heavy)
- sweet and sour tofu dumplings*
- cute russian chocolates
- another azuki bean cream puff
- pineapple salsa and tortilla chips
- Cadbury creme egg chocolate
- a heap more plain Cadbury chocolate
Hi, my name's Lucy and I'm a sugar addict. Give me one sugary thing and apparently, I can't stop. Maybe this has been exacerbated by the fact that I'm in deadline-induced, self-destructive procrastination mode, but I'm considering making the no-sugar thing more permanent.
* From an awesome vegan restaurant "where the animals all live to (something I've forgotten)". It had PETA stickers on the door and animal posters all over the walls (although they weren't ones that were likely to be eaten).

Obviously you must have needed it :)
i'm impressed - was it all tasty? when i go off and then back on sugar, it tastes sooooo sickly sweet for a while. yet, i always (sadly) seem to work through it and get to "the other side" (where it tastes yummy again).
The sugar or the complete avoidance, Styley? I think the latter.
It did all taste good, Shrinky. This is a problem. I was kind of hoping that I wouldn't think it tasted so good when I started eating it again, so that it mightn't require so much will power to avoid. It wasn't all that hard to avoid it completely, though, so maybe I'll just do that except for special occasions.
Okay, but (enabling friend that I seem to be), you did not have *any* sugar today at lunch, right? :)
Nope, it was all savoury, Luckybuzz. I'm not claiming eating all those fries was a good thing, but at least they weren't sugary. :)
I *adore* pineapple salsa. And Cadbury creme eggs.
Fine choices for your sugar binge. :-)
