Undoubtedly, my attitude to sweets was a toxic love.
I used to love sweets and eat them. Today (I wrote this text on the 16th of May, 2023), I know it was a toxic love. Very toxic. It was the same with drinking beer. I used to love drinking them. Still, I almost forgot how beer tastes and smells. How happy I am that I no longer buy and taste sweets and beer. I feel like a free man. I have not drunk beer since the beginning of 2018 and have not eaten sweets since the middle of 2020. Every time I went to the grocery store, sweets were smiling at me, saying aloud:
Eat me.
It was a nightmare. I was enslaved. Undoubtedly, I was addicted. Intermittent fasting helped me maintain my anti-sweets attitude. I do not live to eat candies, jelly candies, and other shitty, processed stuff like that. My toxic relations with sweets slowly killed my body, mind, and soul. I did not feel it when I was eating. Still, years after breaking up with my toxic love, I know how bad I felt and looked when eating many sweets. In today’s post, I want to encourage you, my Dear Friend, to forget about candies. The best thing would be to forget about processed food.
What I do is try to focus on eating meat, nuts, eggs, and vegetables.
Sometimes, I eat fruit, but much less frequently than when eating sweets regularly. When do I eat the first meal during the day? I do not earlier than 7 p.m. Quite often, practically, I eat even later (9 p.m. – 10 p.m.). It all depends on many issues. Still, I do not know what hunger is. I know what appetite is. The latter one is responsible for eating sweets. Remember, my Dear Friend, that your mind wants to eat in this case. Not your stomach. I keep my fingers crossed for your disposal of the toxic love for eating sweets.
