Sugar-rush...

Steve's Thursday eats

Breakfast: Porridge (banana, honey, raisins, yoghurt)

Snacks: Banana, crackers, rice cakes

Lunch: Pasta w/veggies & tomato & cheese

Snack: Sugary yoghurt, egg, orange, apple, more crackers, mini pretzels

Dinner: More pasta!

Post dinner: Bread & mozarella, yoghurt & raisins, orange

Essentially, boring.

I ate a yoghurt. It had added sugar. It was divine. My body woke up, sniffing blood like a wolf. I got a bit high. It was a harsh reminder of the strength of this sugar addiction- after 30 days of being almost completely refined-sugar free, my bodies reaction made it clear:

I wasn't over it.

I never will be.

There's just 16 days to go.

Next week, I will fail the challenge.

It's my birthday. There will be a cake. I will eat it.

I'm going to Paris. There will be sunday morning pastries and good wine. I will eat and drink them.

What song comes into your head when I say "that's just the way it is"?
