We'd been ingesting a lot of sugar in our alcohol intake. Makes sense that we replace it with sugary foods from what I've been told, read, etc.
I went into my first sugar urge period about 2-3 mo in. I have gone in ups and downs about it and right now (just past 2 yrs) am battling my *choice* to keep eating a lot of it. I otherwise have a very produce full, etc healthy diet and do a LOT of exercise and drinking water and such.
On the whole, I am healthier than ever and having a little bit rounded tummy (very happy with my yoga-ed and runner body overall!) is ok. I am going to focus more on cutting back on the sugar at night (that's when it's been a problem - though that means about 8-9 p for me bc I get up at 430 most days) as I work on my sleep.
