That's a great goal, Jackie! (Just focusing on "letting go" of the sugar instead of overwhelming yourself with everything you can't/shouldn't have.) I have (or had) a sweet tooth myself growing up, so I can definitely relate. I don't know how long it took, but once I cut back on the sugary foods and drinks, they seem too rich to enjoy now that my palate has adjusted to going without (same with fatty foods; once I started a strict diet and gave myself one cheat day per week, I was amazed--and almost sickened--at being able to taste and feel the fat in my mouth after just 6 days of going without the cheeseburgers, etc.)

Take it one day at a time, and keep up the great work, Jackie! :-)

I just got back from a Disneyworld vacation. We had so much fun and especially since my niece, her husband, and their two boys, ages 7 and 4 were there. The boys were wonderful, very sweet.
I am currently going to acupuncture for asthma and lots of other thngs. Sugar is a real problem for me and once again I got into the sugar. I felt really good the whole time I was there but I know I should not be into the sugar.
I have decided rather than think about all the foods I should be eating I am only going to concentrate on letting go of the sugar. I am hoping that will work best for me. We do vacation a lot so I need to do something to not be sooo attracted to the sugar.
Have a wonderful day. Jackie
