RE: Cake, chocolate, sugar, spice and all that's nice. Story of Me
Beautifully written post! I enjoyed it very much and having a mother who deals with this, I have first hand observation of this struggle. I am trying to learn from her experience and do everything I can to be more balanced and healthy. Recently I started what can be called a low carb lifestyle, no bread, no sodas, no junk food. Cheers on your journey!
Thanks lucyjane, iappreciate the wonderfull review and good luck on that low carb diet... it is not easy. Very few restaurants cater for it here in South Africa and it is a real struggle. Hope you all the best 😋
You're very welcome, I hold much respect for you in the fact that you chose to make difficult life decisions to promote your health after your diagnosis... Your family will appreciate it. I can't imagine how it is there in South Africa, but here in the US there are so many choices for poor eating you are assaulted on every side with temptation lol. That's why I do my own cooking all the time. I'm not doing too bad, two months in and have gotten past the cravings and just plain hunger, ha! Now I'm starting to enjoy real food, and when I have given in to temptation I find I don't enjoy it as much as I thought in my mind I would. Oh, the irony lol. Alcohol is a difficult one for me also. If you ever need encouragement or lifting up in your journey, I will keep some on reserve just for you! 😊
Im sure a time will come to take you on that offer.
