Well, I am back for a bit!  I don't quite remember the last time I have been on this site.  I am still stuck in the same rut with this whole weight loss thing.  I have finally come to the conclusion that I am a sugar addict.  I love the stuff!!!  Unfortunately, my doctor told me that I needed to cut back on the sugar or I would have to go on diabetes medication.  At first, I was determined to give the sugary sweet stuff up, unfortunately I have fallen off the wagon a few times.  I did not realize how much of a sweet tooth I had until I needed to stop.  So, I decided to track down my eating habits & discovered that sugar is a main staple in all of my meals.  Breakfast consists of coffee w/2 sugars & a cinnamon raisin bagel w/cream cheese. Lunch consists of a big gulp.. For those of you who do not know what a big gulp is.. it is a large soda from 7-11 store.   then I usually have a slice of pizza, or a smart ones boxed meal (that smart ones has a ton of sugar in each of their meals).  Usually there is a birthday party at work every week.. So cake is a component of lunch.  Cookies have also been showing up at

the office.  Dinner consists of another boxed meal & ice cream.  With all that sugar, I should already be in a diabetic coma!!!  Well, I am going to have to wean myself off gradually.  It's gonna be a long unsweetened road ahead of me for the most part.
