Sugar Addiction

During the last few years of my boozing, I developed a sugar addiction too. Actually, I'd probably had the sugar addiction all along because I've always been a complete hound when it comes to cookies, cakes, muffins, etc.

When I stopped drinking for 7 months, I thought the sugar cravings would go away. I tried to clean out all of the sugar-laden "food" in the place and concentrated on eating mainly salads and protein, along with veggies and lots of blueberries (my fave!).

The sugar craving didn't abate. Not one bit.

Today, I ate a bag of gourmet malted milk balls. They are silky smooth and so very tasty. I ate so many that I got dizzy and sick to my stomach. I had about 10 left so I gave them to a coworker, just to get them out of my reach.

Anyone else have a bad sugar jones?
