HI again Bruce-
Yes, I am in recovery for alcoholism. My sobrieyty date is 11/19/06.

I had almost 5+months off of sugar but blew it two weeks ago.
Without realizing it, I just blew it again tonight....I WISH I had remembered the saying

"it's easier to say no to the first sweet than it is to the second"

before I even realized it, I had taken a bite.........Yup-I have to start over...
This is going to be really tough.....I HATE this beginning stage.....
I have to remember that eating sugar really is like drinking for me...just a different package.
Any way welcome again to this thread-it's a great one
