I'm a Sugar Addict !

Yesterday I ate chocolate.  LOTS of chocolate.  I was a maniac and couldn't get enough of it in my gob, and when it was all gone....I wanted more.

I'm a sugar addict.  It's no secret.

And then my body heated up, I scratched my skin off and my brain wouldn't quiet down.  The piece de resistance.....my thyroid swelled to the point I thought it was about to burst out of my skin.

I didn't even enjoy the chocolate!

 

 

I've been off the white stuff for so long I forgot how addictive it was and how damaging to my body it is.

I'm realistic...it won't be the last time I do this to myself I'm sure, but hopefully having exciting snacks like these  sitting in the freezer will have me reaching for them instead of that other crap!
